Psalms 8

1 For the music director. On the gittith. A psalm of David. Lord, our Lord, your magnificent reputation fills the earth! Your majesty is greater than the heavens above,

大卫的诗，交与伶长。用迦特乐器。 耶和华—我们的主啊， 你的名在全地何其美！ 你将你的荣耀彰显于天。

2 and is sung by the voices of children and infants. Your strength counters your opponents, silencing the enemy and the avenger.

你因敌人的缘故， 从婴孩和吃奶的口中， 建立了能力， 使仇敌和报仇的闭口无言。

3 When I contemplate the heavens that your hands made, the moon and stars that you placed there,

我观看你指头所造的天， 并你所陈设的月亮星宿，

4 What are human beings that you should concern yourself with them? What are people that you should care for them?

便说：人算什么，你竟顾念他！ 世人算什么，你竟眷顾他！

5 You created them a little lower than God, crowning them with glory and majesty.

你叫他比天使微小一点， 并赐他荣耀尊贵为冠冕。

6 You put them in charge of all that you made, giving them authority over everything:

你派他管理你手所造的， 使万物，就是一切的牛羊、 田野的兽、空中的鸟、海里的鱼， 凡经行海道的，都服在他的脚下。

7 the sheep, the cattle, and the wild animals,

8 the birds in the sky, and the fish in the sea—everything that swims in the ocean.

9 Lord, our Lord, your magnificent reputation fills the earth!

耶和华—我们的主啊， 你的名在全地何其美！
