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.

For the leader: A psalm of David, to be accompanied by a stringed instrument. Lord our God! How glorious in all the earth is your name! Your praise reaches as high as the heavens,

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

from the mouths of children and infants. You have built a fortress against your enemies, to silence the foe and the rebel.

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

When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set there,

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

what are mortals, that you think of them, humans, that you visit them?

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

Yet you made them little less than divine, crowned them with glory and majesty,

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

made them lord of the works of your hands, put all things under their feet –

7 Jamni gi kweth duto kod le mager mag bungu,

sheep and oxen, all of them; and the wild beasts also:

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

birds of the air, and fish of the sea, and all that crosses the paths of the ocean.

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

Lord our God! How glorious in all the earth is your name!
