Psalm 8

<< Psalm 8 OJB >>
TEHILLIM 8
 

1(For the one directing. According to the gittit. Mizmor of Dovid). Hashem Adoneinu, how excellent is Shimecha in kol ha'aretz Who hast set Thy glory above HaShomayim.

2 (3)Out of the mouth of olelim and infants hast Thou established strength because of Thine enemies, that Thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.

3 (4)When I consider Thy heavens, the ma'asim of Thy fingers, the yarei'ach and the kokhavim, which Thou hast ordained;

4 (5)What is enosh (mankind), that Thou art mindful of him? And the ben adam, that Thou visitest him?

5 (6)For Thou hast made him a little lower than elohim [or Elohim, Gn 1:27], and hast crowned him with kavod and hadar.

6 (7)Thou madest him to have dominion over the ma'asim of Thy hands; Thou hast put all things under his feet:

7 (8)All sheep and oxen, yea, and the behemot sadeh;

8 (9)The fowl of the air, and the dag (fish) of the yam, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas.

9 (10)Hashem Adoneinu, how excellent is Shimecha in kol ha'aretz!
