Psalms 8:2-5

21From the mouth of infants and nursing babes You have established 23strength Because of Your adversaries, To make 4the enemy and the revengeful cease.

3When I 56consider 7Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, The 8moon and the stars, which You have 9ordained;410What is man that You 11take thought of him, And the son of man that You care for him?5Yet You have made him a 12little lower than 13God, And 14You crown him with 15glory and majesty!
