Psalm 8:2-4
New International Reader's Version
2 You have made sure that children
and infants praise you.
Their praise is a wall
that stops the talk of your enemies.
3 I think about the heavens.
I think about what your fingers have created.
I think about the moon and stars
that you have set in place.
4 What are human beings that you think about them?
What is a son of man that you take care of him?
Psalm 8:2-4
New International Version
2 Through the praise of children and infants
you have established a stronghold(A) against your enemies,
to silence the foe(B) and the avenger.
3 When I consider your heavens,(C)
the work of your fingers,(D)
the moon and the stars,(E)
which you have set in place,
4 what is mankind that you are mindful of them,
human beings that you care for them?[a](F)
