NLT · New Living Translation
Psalms
Chapter 8
- 1
O LORD, our Lord, your majestic name fills the earth! Your glory is higher than the heavens.
- 2
You have taught children and infants to tell of your strength, silencing your enemies and all who oppose you.
- 3
When I look at the night sky and see the work of your fingers — the moon and the stars you set in place —
- 4
what are mere mortals that you should think about them, human beings that you should care for them?
- 5
Yet you made them only a little lower than God and crowned them with glory and honor.
- 6
You gave them charge of everything you made, putting all things under their authority —
- 7
the flocks and the herds and all the wild animals,
- 8
the birds in the sky, the fish in the sea, and everything that swims the ocean currents.
- 9
O LORD, our Lord, your majestic name fills the earth!
