Psalm 8
1 To the head of the choir. On the gun of Gath. Psalm of David.
2 O Lord our God! how great is Thy name in all the earth! Thy glory extends above the heavens!
3 Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings Thou hast ordained praise for the sake of Thy enemies, that Thou mayest silence the enemy and the avenger.
4 When I look upon thy heavens, it is the work of thy fingers, and of the moon, and of the stars which thou hast set up,
5 What is man, that thou rememberest him, and son of man, that thou visitest him?
6 Thou hast humbled him not much before the angels: Thou hast crowned him with glory and honor;
7 Thou hast made him ruler over the works of thy hands; He put everything under his feet.
8 and all the sheep and oxen, and also the beasts of the field;
9 The birds of the air, and the fish of the sea, all that pass away by the paths of the sea.
10 O Lord our God! How majestic is Thy name throughout all the earth!
Psalm 9
1 To the head of the choir. After the death of Laben. Psalm of David.
2 I will praise [thee], O Lord, with all my heart, declaring all thy wonders.
3 I will rejoice and rejoice in you, I will sing to your name, O Most High.
4 When my enemies are turned back, they will stumble and perish before you,
5 for thou hast carried out my judgment and my lawsuit; Thou art seated on the throne, O righteous Judge.
6 Thou hast been indignant with the nations, Thou hast destroyed the wicked, Thou hast blotted out their name for ever and ever.
7 The enemy hath no weapons at all, and thou hast destroyed the cities; their memory perished with them.
8 But the Lord abides for ever; He has prepared His throne for judgment;
9 And he will judge the world in righteousness, he will judge the nations in righteousness.
