King James Version

The Book of Psalms

Return to Index Henry's Commentary
1 O LORD, our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens.
2 1Out of the mouth of 2babes 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?
Heb 2:6
5 For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.
Heb 2:7
6 1Thou madest him to have 2dominion over the works of thy hands; 2thou hast put all things under his feet:
1 Heb 2:7,8
2 Gen 1:26
3 1st Cor 15:27, Eph 1:22
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!
