Psalms 8

1 To the chief music-maker on the Gittith. A Psalm. Of David. O Lord, our Lord, whose glory is higher than the heavens, how noble is your name in all the earth!

Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Nzembo ya Davidi; ezali ya koyemba na lindanda ya bato ya Gati. Oh Yawe, Nkolo na biso, Kombo na Yo ezali monene kati na mokili mobimba! Ovandisi nkembo na Yo kati na Lola.

2 You have made clear your strength even out of the mouths of babies at the breast, because of those who are against you; so that you may put to shame the cruel and violent man.

Na nzela ya masanzoli ya bana mpe bana mike, otelemisi ndako batonga makasi, mpo na kotelemela bayini na Yo mpe kokanga monoko ya monguna mpe ya moto oyo alingaka kozongisa mabe na mabe.

3 When I see your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have put in their places;

Tango natalaka Lola na Yo, mosala ya misapi na Yo, sanza mpe minzoto oyo otia,

4 What is man, that you keep him in mind? the son of man, that you take him into account?

namitunaka: Moto azali nini mpo ete okanisa ye, mpe moto azali nani mpo ete obatela ye?

5 For you have made him only a little lower than the gods, crowning him with glory and honour.

Osalaki ye moke koleka ba-anjelu mpe olatisaka ye motole ya nkembo mpe ya lokumu;

6 You have made him ruler over the works of your hands; you have put all things under his feet;

otia ye moyangeli ya misala ya maboko na Yo, otia nyonso na se ya matambe na ye:

7 All sheep and oxen, and all the beasts of the field;

bameme, bantaba, bangombe mpe banyama ya zamba,

8 The birds of the air and the fish of the sea, and whatever goes through the deep waters of the seas.

bandeke ya likolo, mbisi ya ebale monene mpe nyonso oyo etambolaka na bibale.

9 O Lord, our Lord, how noble is your name in all the earth!

Oh Yawe, Nkolo na biso, Kombo na Yo ezali monene kati na mokili mobimba!
