Zaburi 8

1 Kuom Jatend Wer. Kaluwore Gi Gitith. Zaburi Mar Daudi. Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, ma Ruodhwa, mano kaka nyingi nigi duongʼ e piny duto! Iseketo duongʼni maler milamo, moyombo polo.

To him that excelleth on Gittith. A Psalme of Dauid. O Lord our Lord, how excellent is thy Name in all the worlde! which hast set thy glory aboue the heauens.

2 Ne isechano mondo nyithindo kod nyithindo mayom omiyi pak, nikech wasiki, mondo jawasigu kod jachul kuor olingʼ kawuoro timni.

Out of the mouth of babes and suckelings hast thou ordeined strength, because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemie and the auenger.

3 Kaparo polo mari ma gin tich lweti, kaparo dwe gi sulwe miseketo kargi,

When I beholde thine heauens, euen the workes of thy fingers, the moone and the starres which thou hast ordeined,

4 to dhano adhana to en angʼo momiyo ipare, wuod dhano to en angʼo momiyo iketo pachi kuome?

What is man, say I, that thou art mindefull of him? and the sonne of man, that thou visitest him?

5 Ne ichweye mapiny ne malaike kendo isesidhone osimbo mar duongʼ kod luor.

For thou hast made him a little lower then God, and crowned him with glory and worship.

6 Isekete jatelo ewi tich lweti duto; iseketo gik moko duto e bwo tiende:

Thou hast made him to haue dominion in the workes of thine hands: thou hast put all things vnder his feete:

7 Jamni gi kweth duto kod le mager mag bungu,

All sheepe and oxen: yea, and the beastes of the fielde:

8 Winy duto mafuyo e kor polo, kod rech manie nam, gi le duto mamol kaluwo yore manie nembe iketo e bwo lochne.

The foules of the ayre, and the fish of the sea, and that which passeth through the paths of the seas.

9 Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, ma Ruodhwa, mano kaka nyingi nigi duongʼ e piny duto!

O Lord our Lord, howe excellent is thy Name in all the world!
