The Psalm reading for tomorrow is Psalm 8. This psalm is special to me as when I first attended Summer Institute of Linguistics at the University of Washington in the summer of 1975 andwas learning what Bible translation was all about, my future husband came by one evening. He was memorizing Psalm 8 and together we learned this psalm that was being made popular through music by the group Maranatha. May this blast from the past bless you and may you sink the teeth of your soul into it.
Lord, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!
You have set your glory in the heavens.
2 Through the praise of children and infants
you have established a stronghold against your enemies,
to silence the foe and the avenger.
3 When I consider your heavens,
the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which you have set in place,
4what is mankind that you are mindful of them,
human beings that you care for them?[c]
5 You have made them a little lower than the angels[e]
and crowned them with glory and honor.
6 You made them rulers over the works of your hands;
you put everything under their] feet:
7 all flocks and herds,
and the animals of the wild,
8 the birds in the sky,
and the fish
