Psalms 8

1 O Jehovah, our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth, who has set thy glory upon the heavens!

Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Ayi Mukama, Mukama waffe, erinnya lyo nga ddungi era kkulu nnyo mu nsi yonna! Ekitiibwa kyo kitenderezebwa okutuuka waggulu mu ggulu.

2 Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou have perfected praise, because of thine adversaries, that thou might still the enemy and the avenger.

Abaana abato n’abawere wabawa amaanyi okukutendereza; ne basirisa omulabe wo n’oyo ayagala okwesasuza.

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

Bwe ntunuulira eggulu lyo, omulimu gw’engalo zo, omwezi n’emmunyeenye bye watonda;

4 what is man that thou remember him? And the son of man that thou succor him?

omuntu kye ki ggwe okumujjukira, omuntu obuntu ggwe okumussaako omwoyo?

5 For thou have made him but little lower than agents, and crowned him with glory and honor.

Kubanga wamukola n’abulako katono okuba nga Katonda; n’omussaako engule ey’obukulu n’ekitiibwa.

6 Thou make him to have dominion over the works of thy hands. Thou have put all things under his feet.

Wamukwasa okufuga ebintu byonna bye wakola n’emikono gyo: byonna wabissa wansi w’ebigere bye,

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

ebisibo n’amagana ag’ebisolo byonna eby’omu nsiko,

8 the birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea, whatever passes through the paths of the seas.

n’ennyonyi ez’omu bbanga, n’ebyennyanja eby’omu nnyanja; era na buli kiramu kyonna ekiyita mu nnyanja.

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

Ayi Mukama, Mukama waffe, erinnya lyo nga ddungi era kkulu nnyo mu nsi yonna!
