Psalm 8

For the music leader. According to the Gittith.[a] A psalm of David.

Lord, our Lord, how majestic
    is your name throughout the earth!
    You made your glory higher than heaven![b]
From the mouths of nursing babies
    you have laid a strong foundation
    because of your foes,
    in order to stop vengeful enemies.
When I look up at your skies,
    at what your fingers made—
    the moon and the stars
    that you set firmly in place—
        what are human beings
            that you think about them;
        what are human beings
            that you pay attention to them?
You’ve made them only slightly less than divine,
    crowning them with glory and grandeur.
You’ve let them rule over your handiwork,
    putting everything under their feet—
        all sheep and all cattle,
        the wild animals too,
        the birds in the sky,
        the fish of the ocean,
        everything that travels the pathways of the sea.
Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name throughout the earth!

耶和华之荣耀人之尊贵

大卫的诗,交于伶长。用迦特乐器。

耶和华我们的主啊,你的名在全地何其美,你将你的荣耀彰显于天!
你因敌人的缘故,从婴孩和吃奶的口中建立了能力,使仇敌和报仇的闭口无言。
我观看你指头所造的天,并你所陈设的月亮星宿,
便说:“人算什么,你竟顾念他?世人算什么,你竟眷顾他?
你叫他比天使[a]微小一点,并赐他荣耀尊贵为冠冕。
你派他管理你手所造的,使万物,就是一切的牛羊,田野的兽,空中的鸟,海里的鱼,凡经行海道的,都服在他的脚下。”
耶和华我们的主啊,你的名在全地何其美!
