Psalms 8

1 To the chief Musician. Upon the Gittith. A Psalm of David. Jehovah our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy majesty above the heavens.

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

2 Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou established praise because of thine adversaries, to still the enemy and the 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 see thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and stars, which thou hast established;

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

4 What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?

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

5 Thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and splendour.

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

6 Thou hast made him to rule over the works of thy hands; thou hast put everything under his feet:

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

7 Sheep and oxen, all of them, and also the beasts of the field;

Ovce i volove sve, i divlje zvjerinje,

8 The fowl of the heavens, and the fishes of the sea, [whatever] passeth through the paths of the seas.

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

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

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