“O Lord, our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens. Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.”(Psalm 8:1-2 KJV) “耶和華我們的主阿，你的名在全地何其美。你將你的榮耀彰顯於天。 你因敵人的緣故，從嬰孩和吃奶的口中，建立了能力，使仇敵和報仇的，閉口無言。” (詩篇 8:1-2)
如今，Out of the mouths of babes and sucklings話這習語用來表示小孩子語出驚人，富含哲理。
這則習語在聖經中出現兩次。在馬太福音21：16中，耶穌引用這句出自舊約圣經詩篇第八章。詩篇中，獻榮耀贊美給上帝的，是一群小孩子，而不是智者與聰明人。
