To the chief Musician upon Gittith, A Psalm of David.
1 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.
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;
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!
1 in finem pro torcularibus psalmus David
2 Domine Dominus noster
quam admirabile est nomen tuum in universa terra
quoniam elevata est magnificentia tua super caelos
3 ex ore infantium et lactantium perfecisti laudem
propter inimicos tuos ut destruas inimicum et ultorem
4 quoniam videbo caelos ※tuos: opera digitorum tuorum
lunam et stellas quae tu fundasti
5 quid est homo quod memor es eius
aut filius hominis quoniam visitas eum
6 minuisti eum paulo minus ab angelis
gloria et honore coronasti eum
7 et constituisti eum super opera manuum tuarum
8 omnia subiecisti sub pedibus eius
oves et boves universas insuper et pecora campi
9 volucres caeli et pisces maris qui perambulant semitas maris
10 Domine Dominus noster
quam admirabile est nomen tuum in universa terra
