Texto Bíblico

1 [To the chief Musician upon Gittith, A Psalm of David.] O LORD our Lord, how excellent {is} thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens.

2 Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger. {ordained: Heb. founded}

3 When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;

4 What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?

5 For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.

6 Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all {things} under his feet:

7 All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field; {All...: Heb. Flocks and oxen all of them}

8 The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, {and whatsoever} passeth through the paths of the seas.

9 O LORD our Lord, how excellent {is} thy name in all the earth!
