Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory in the heavens.

2

Through the praise of children and infants you have established a stronghold against your enemies, to silence the foe and the avenger.

3

When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place,

4

what is mankind that you are mindful of them, human beings that you care for them?

5

You have made them a little lower than the angels and crowned them with glory and honor.

6

You made them rulers over the works of your hands; you put everything under their feet:

7

all flocks and herds, and the animals of the wild,

8

the birds in the sky, and the fish in the sea, all that swim the paths of the seas.

9

Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
