^kmy father’s God, and ^lI will exalt him.

50  ^h“For this I will praise you, O Lord, among the nations,

1  O Lord, our Lord,

how majestic is your ^qname in all the earth!

You have set your ^rglory above the heavens.

2  ^sOut of the mouth of babies and infants,

you have established ^tstrength because of your foes,

to still ^uthe enemy and the avenger.

3  When I ^vlook at your heavens, the work of your ^wfingers,

the moon and the stars, ^xwhich you have set in place,

4  ^ywhat is man that you are ^zmindful of him,

and ^athe son of man that you ^bcare for him?

5  Yet you have made him a little lower than ^cthe heavenly beings²

and crowned him with ^dglory and honor.

6  You have given him ^edominion over the works of your hands;

^fyou have put all things under his feet,

7  all sheep and oxen,

and also the beasts of the field,

8  the birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea,

whatever passes along the paths of the seas.

9  O Lord, our Lord,

how majestic is your name in all the earth!

13  Be exalted, O Lord, in your strength!

We will sing and praise your power.

and nations under our feet.

4  He chose our ^cheritage for us,

^dthe pride of Jacob whom he loves. Selah

5  God ^ehas gone up with a shout,

the Lord with the sound of a trumpet.
