8:1 For the director of music. On the gittith. A psalm of David. Lord our Lord, your name is the most wonderful name in all the earth! It brings you praise in heaven above.
8:2 You have taught children and babies to sing praises to you because of your enemies. And so you silence your enemies and destroy those who try to get even.
8:3 I look at your heavens, which you made with your fingers. I see the moon and stars, which you created.
8:4 But why are people even important to you? Why do you take care of human beings?
8:5 You made them a little lower than the angels and crowned them with glory and honor.
8:6 You put them in charge of everything you made. You put all things under their control:
8:7 all the sheep, the cattle, and the wild animals,
8:8 the birds in the sky, the fish in the sea, and everything that lives under water.
8:9 Lord our Lord, your name is the most wonderful name in all the earth!
