Salmos 8
Nova Versão Transformadora
Ao regente do coral: salmo de Davi, para ser acompanhado com instrumento de cordas.[a]
8 Ó Senhor, nosso Senhor, teu nome majestoso enche a terra;
tua glória é mais alta que os céus!
2 Tu ensinaste crianças e bebês
a anunciarem tua força;[b]
assim calaste teus inimigos
e todos que a ti se opõem.
3 Quando olho para o céu e contemplo a obra de teus dedos,
a lua e as estrelas que ali puseste, pergunto:
4 Quem são os simples mortais, para que penses neles?
Quem são os seres humanos, para que com eles te importes?[c]
5 E, no entanto, os fizeste apenas um pouco menores que Deus[d]
e os[e] coroaste de glória e honra.
6 Tu os encarregaste de tudo que criaste
e puseste sob a autoridade deles todas as coisas:
7 os rebanhos, o gado
e todos os animais selvagens;
8 as aves do céu, os peixes do mar
e tudo que percorre as correntes dos oceanos.
9 Ó Senhor, nosso Senhor, teu nome majestoso enche a terra!

Psalm 8
The Voice
Psalm 8
For the worship leader. A song of David accompanied by the harp.[a]
This Davidic psalm based on Genesis 1 celebrates not only God’s majesty as Creator but also the unique place of human beings in His creation.
1 O Eternal, our Lord,
Your majestic name is heard throughout the earth;
Your magnificent glory shines far above the skies.
2 From the mouths and souls of infants and toddlers, the most innocent,
You have decreed power to stop Your adversaries
and quash those who seek revenge.
3 When I gaze to the skies and meditate on Your creation—
on the moon, stars, and all You have made,
4 I can’t help but wonder why You care about mortals—
sons and daughters of men—
specks of dust floating about the cosmos.
5 But You placed the son of man just beneath God
and honored him like royalty, crowning him with glory and honor.
6 You ordained him to govern the works of Your hands,
to nurture the offspring of Your divine imagination;
You placed everything on earth beneath his feet:
7 All kinds of domesticated animals,
even the wild animals in the fields and forests,
8 The birds of the sky and the fish of the sea,
all the multitudes of living things that travel the currents of the oceans.
9 O Eternal, our Lord,
Your majestic name is heard throughout the earth.
