You have set your glory^(B)
    in the heavens.^(C)
2 Through the praise of children and infants
    you have established a stronghold^(D) against your enemies,
    to silence the foe^(E) and the avenger.
³ When I consider your heavens,^(F)
    the work of your fingers,^(G)
the moon and the stars,^(H)
    which you have set in place,
⁴ what is mankind that you are mindful of them,
    human beings that you care for them?^[c](I)

⁵ You have made them^[d] a little lower than the angels^[e](J)
    and crowned them^[f] with glory and honor.^(K)
6 You made them rulers^(L) over the works of your hands;^(M)
    you put everything under their^[g] feet:^(N)
7 all flocks and herds,^(O)
    and the animals of the wild,^(P)
8 the birds in the sky,
    and the fish in the sea,^(Q)
    all that swim the paths of the seas.

⁹ Lord, our Lord,
    how majestic is your name in all the earth!^(R)

⁵ Blessed are those whose strength^(H) is in you,
    whose hearts are set on pilgrimage.^(I)
6 As they pass through the Valley of Baka,
    they make it a place of springs;^(J)
    the autumn^(K) rains also cover it with pools.^[d]
7 They go from strength to strength,^(L)
    till each appears^(M) before God in Zion.^(N)

⁸ Hear my prayer,^(O) Lord God Almighty;
    listen to me, God of Jacob.
⁹ Look on our shield,^[e](P) O God;
    look with favor on your anointed one.^(Q)

¹⁰ Better is one day in your courts
    than a thousand elsewhere;
I would rather be a doorkeeper^(R) in the house of my God
    than dwell in the tents of the wicked.
¹¹ For the Lord God is a sun^(S) and shield;^(T)
    the Lord bestows favor and honor;
no good thing does he withhold^(U)
    from those whose walk is blameless.

¹² Lord Almighty,
    blessed^(V) is the one who trusts in you.
