< Psalms 8 >
1 O YHWH our Sovereign, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens.
To the choirmaster on the Gittith a psalm of David. O Yahweh lord our how! majestic [is] name your in all the earth [the one] who set! splendor your above the heavens.
2 Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.
From [the] mouth of children - and suckling-children you have established strength on account of opposers your to put an end to an enemy and an avenger.
3 When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;
If I will see heavens your [the] works fingers your [the] moon and [the] stars which you have established.
4 What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?
What? [is] humankind that you will remember him and a son of humankind that you will pay attention to him.
5 For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.
And you have made lack him little from God and honor and majesty you crown him.
6 Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet:
You make rule him over [the] works of hands your everything you have put under feet his.
7 All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field;
Sheep and cattle all of them and also [the] animals of [the] field.
8 The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas.
[the] bird[s] of [the] heavens And [the] fish of the sea [that which] passes through [the] paths of [the] seas.
9 O YHWH our Sovereign, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!
O Yahweh lord our how! majestic [is] name your in all the earth.
