< Psalms 8 >
1 O LORD, our Lord, how excellent is your name in all the earth! who have set your glory above the heavens.
E IEHOVA, e ko makou Haku, Kai ka hemolele o kou inoa ma ka honua a pau! Ua hohola oe i kou nani maluna o na lani.
2 Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings have you ordained strength because of your enemies, that you might still the enemy and the avenger.
Noloko ae o ka waha o na keiki hou a me na mea omo, I hoomakaukau ai oe i ka hoolea no kou poe enemi, I pilipu ia oe ka enemi, a me ka mea hoomaau.
3 When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have ordained;
I ko'u manao ana'ku i kou mau lani, ka hana o kou mau lima, I ka mahina a me na hoku au i hooponopono mai ai;
4 What is man, that you are mindful of him? and the son of man, that you visit him?
Heaha ke kanaka i manao mai ai oe ia ia? A o ke keiki a ke kanaka hoi i ike mai ai oe ia ia?
5 For you have made him a little lower than the angels, and have crowned him with glory and honor.
Ua hana iho oe ia ia malalo iho o ka poe anela, Ua kau mai oe ia ia i ka nani a me ka mahalo i lei nona;
6 You made him to have dominion over the works of your hands; you have put all things under his feet:
Ua hoolilo oe ia ia i haku no na mea a kou mau lima i hana'i; Nau no i waiho na mea a pau malalo ae o kona mau wawae:
7 All sheep and oxen, yes, and the beasts of the field;
O na hipa, a me na bipi a pau, Oia, me na holoholona o ke kula;
8 The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatever passes through the paths of the seas.
O na manu o ka lewa, a me na ia o ke kai, A me na mea a pau e holo ana ma na ala o ka moana.
9 O LORD our Lord, how excellent is your name in all the earth!
E IEHOVA, e ko makou Haku, Kai ka hemolele o kou inoa ma ka honua a pau!
