How Majestic Is Your Name

To the choirmaster: according to The (A)Gittith.[a] A Psalm of David.

O Lord, our Lord,
    how majestic is your (B)name in all the earth!
You have set your (C)glory above the heavens.
    (D)Out of the mouth of babies and infants,
you have established (E)strength because of your foes,
    to still (F)the enemy and the avenger.

When I (G)look at your heavens, the work of your (H)fingers,
    the moon and the stars, (I)which you have set in place,
(J)what is man that you are (K)mindful of him,
    and (L)the son of man that you (M)care for him?

Yet you have made him a little lower than (N)the heavenly beings[b]
    and crowned him with (O)glory and honor.
You have given him (P)dominion over the works of your hands;
    (Q)you have put all things under his feet,
all sheep and oxen,
    and also the beasts of the field,
the birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea,
    whatever passes along the paths of the seas.

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

耶和華之榮耀人之尊貴

大衛的詩,交於伶長。用迦特樂器。

耶和華我們的主啊,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。
我觀看你指頭所造的天,並你所陳設的月亮星宿,
便說:「人算什麼,你竟顧念他?世人算什麼,你竟眷顧他?
你叫他比天使[a]微小一點,並賜他榮耀尊貴為冠冕。
你派他管理你手所造的,使萬物,就是一切的牛羊,田野的獸,空中的鳥,海裡的魚,凡經行海道的,都服在他的腳下。」
耶和華我們的主啊,你的名在全地何其美!

Moses Flees to Midian

11 One day, (A)when Moses had grown up, he went out to his people and looked on their (B)burdens, and he saw an Egyptian beating a Hebrew, one of his people.[a] 12 He looked this way and that, and seeing no one, he (C)struck down the Egyptian and hid him in the sand. 13 When (D)he went out the next day, behold, two Hebrews were struggling together. And he said to the man in the wrong, “Why do you strike your companion?” 14 He answered, (E)“Who made you a prince and a judge over us? Do you mean to kill me as you killed the Egyptian?” Then Moses was afraid, and thought, “Surely the thing is known.” 15 When Pharaoh heard of it, he sought to kill Moses. But (F)Moses fled from Pharaoh and stayed in the land of Midian. And he sat down by (G)a well.

摩西逃往米甸

11 後來,摩西長大,他出去到他弟兄那裡,看他們的重擔,見一個埃及人打希伯來人的一個弟兄。 12 他左右觀看,見沒有人,就把埃及人打死了,藏在沙土裡。 13 第二天他出去,見有兩個希伯來人爭鬥,就對那欺負人的說:「你為什麼打你同族的人呢?」 14 那人說:「誰立你做我們的首領和審判官呢?難道你要殺我,像殺那埃及人嗎?」摩西便懼怕,說:「這事必是被人知道了。」 15 法老聽見這事,就想殺摩西,但摩西躲避法老,逃往米甸地居住。

    or (D)who has been his counselor?”
35 “Or (E)who has given a gift to him
    that he might be repaid?”

36 For (F)from him and through him and to him are all things. (G)To him be glory forever. Amen.

主智無窮主道難尋

33 深哉,神豐富的智慧和知識!他的判斷何其難測,他的蹤跡何其難尋! 34 「誰知道主的心,誰做過他的謀士呢? 35 誰是先給了他,使他後來償還呢?」 36 因為萬有都是本於他,倚靠他,歸於他。願榮耀歸給他,直到永遠!阿們。
