Psalms 8

1 For the choirmaster. According to Gittith. A Psalm of David. O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth! You have set Your glory above the heavens.

Gospode, Gospode naš! kako je velièanstveno ime tvoje po svoj zemlji! Podigao si slavu svoju više nebesa.

2 From the mouths of children and infants You have ordained praise on account of Your adversaries, to silence the enemy and avenger.

U ustima male djece i koja sisaju èiniš sebi hvalu nasuprot neprijateljima svojim, da bi uèinio da zamukne neprijatelj i nemirnik.

3 When I behold Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have set in place—

Kad pogledam nebesa tvoja, djelo prsta tvojih, mjesec i zvijezde, koje si ti postavio;

4 what is man that You are mindful of him, or the son of man that You care for him?

Šta je èovjek, te ga se opominješ, ili sin èovjeèji, te ga polaziš?

5 You made him a little lower than the angels; You crowned him with glory and honor.

Uèinio si ga malo manjega od anðela, slavom i èašæu vjenèao si ga;

6 You made him ruler of the works of Your hands; You have placed everything under his feet:

Postavio si ga gospodarom nad djelima ruku svojih, sve si metnuo pod noge njegove,

7 all sheep and oxen, and even the beasts of the field,

Ovce i volove sve, i divlje zvjerinje,

8 the birds of the air and the fish of the sea, all that swim the paths of the seas.

Ptice nebeske i ribe morske, što god ide morskim putovima.

9 O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth!

Gospode, Gospode naš! kako je velièanstveno ime tvoje po svoj zemlji!
