Kaluwalhatian ng Diyos at Dignidad ng Tao

Katha ni David upang awitin ng Punong Mang-aawit: sa saliw ng Gittith.[a]

O Yahweh, na aming Panginoon,
    sa buong mundo'y tunay kang dakila!
Iyong papuri'y abot sa langit!
    Pinupuri(A) ka ng mga bata't bagong silang,
ikaw ay nagtayo ng isang tanggulan,
    kaya't natahimik ang lahat ng iyong kaaway.
Pinagmasdan ko ang langit na gawa ng iyong kamay,
    pati ang buwan at mga bituin na iyong inilagay.
Ano(B) ba ang tao upang iyong pahalagahan;
    o ang anak ng tao upang iyong pangalagaan?

Nilikha(C) mo siyang mababa sa iyo[b] nang kaunti,
    pinuspos mo siya ng dangal at ng luwalhati.
Ginawa(D) mo siyang pinuno ng lahat ng iyong nilikha,
    sa lahat ng mga bagay, siya ang iyong pinamahala:
    mga tupa at kawan pati na ang mababangis,
    lahat ng ibong lumilipad, at mga isda sa karagatan,
    at lahat ng nilikhang nasa karagatan.

O Yahweh, na aming Panginoon,
    sa buong mundo'y tunay kang dakila!

Psalm 8[a]

For the director of music. According to gittith.[b] A psalm of David.

Lord, our Lord,
    how majestic is your name(A) in all the earth!

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

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

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

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.

When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;

What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?

For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.

Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet:

All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field;

The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas.

O Lord our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!
