The Book of PsalmsPsalm 8
The Catholic Public Domain Version numbers the Psalms as the Latin Vulgate does. In Bibles translated from the Hebrew this is Psalm 8. Read Psalm 8 in the WEBC.
8Unto the end. For the oil and wine presses. A Psalm of David.
2O Lord, our Lord, how admirable is your name throughout all the earth! For your magnificence is elevated above the heavens.
3Out of the mouths of babes and infants, you have perfected praise, because of your enemies, so that you may destroy the enemy and the revenger.
4For I will behold your heavens, the works of your fingers: the moon and the stars, which you have founded.
5What is man, that you are mindful of him, or the son of man, that you visit him?
6You reduced him to a little less than the Angels; you have crowned him with glory and honor,
7and you have set him over the works of your hands.
8You have subjected all things under his feet, all sheep and oxen, and in addition: the beasts of the field,
9the birds of the air, and the fish of the sea, which pass through the paths of the sea.
10O Lord, our Lord, how admirable is your name throughout all the earth! (9 - 10)
