Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth

Psalm 8:1-9
Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
You have set your glory in the heavens.
Through the praise of children and infants you have established a stronghold against your enemies, to silence the foe and the avenger.
When I consider Your heavens, the work of your fingersthe moon, and the stars, which you have set in place,
What is mankind that you are mindful of them, human beings that you care for them?
You have made them a little lower than the angels and crowned them with glory and honor.
You made them rulers over the works of your hands; you put everything under their feet:
v2-4 As he contemplates the great expanse of the universe the psalmist is overwhelmed by a sense of the littleness of humanity. He marvels that God not only bothers about 'mere mortals', but has set them over all other creatures(5-8). The psalm ends, as it began, with a refrain of praise to God.
Why?
David praised the Lord for God's mighty hands did for creature work and let mankind rules over them.
People are only a little lower than angels and God crowned mankind with glory and honor.
There are so much mercy and honor on mankind, how little as men before the Lord!

神的名何其美,1.神的創造  2.人軟弱上 顯明 。嬰孩吃奶的3.神所創造的人,賜管理地位。
連嬰孩吃奶的可以勝過仇敵,是因為神的能力。
看神所創造的,我們沒有什麼可以誇耀的。人的地位不是從氣力、智慧來看,依神給人的恩典,地位。人是何等渺小!
看神為我們所做的,我們就不再懼怕未來的事物、可以放心。以前神如何帶領我們,我們知道神的能力。我們還擔心什麼?

How?
Praise and says how majestic is your name in all the earth!
