Berean Standard Bible

Psalms 8:2-5

2From the mouths of children and infants You have ordained praise1 on account of Your adversaries, to silence the enemy and avenger.

3When I behold Your heavens,the work of Your fingers,the moon and the stars,which You have set in place—

4what is man that You are mindful of him,or the son of man that You care for him?5You made him a little lower than the angels;2You crowned him with glory and honor.
