Psalms 8

1 O LORD, our Lord, how excellent is your name in all the earth! who have set your glory above the heavens.

Aw Bawipa, kaimih a Bawipa, khawmdek khan boeih awh na boeimangnaak be soeih mah hy! Na boeimangnaak ce khankhqik khanawh ta hyk ti.

2 Out of the mouth of babes and infants have you ordained strength because of your enemies, that you might still the enemy and the avenger.

Qaalkhqi ingkaw lu ak lokhqi sit sak aham ingkaw na qaalkhqi awh, naasenkhqi ingkaw naacakhqi a hui awhkawng kyihcahnaak ce caksak hyk ti.

3 When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have ordained;

Khan nakaw ak awm na kut sai pihla ingkaw aihchikhqi, amah a awmnaak hun boeih awh na taakkhqi ce kak poek awh,

4 What is man, that you are mindful of him? and the son of man, that you visit him?

Thlanghqing ve ikawpna a awm aih awh, na qeetnaak khaak nawh, thlanghqing capa awm na kqip loet hy voei?

5 For you have made him a little lower than the angels, and have crowned him with glory and honour.

Anih ce khan khaw na ak awm anglakawh ak nem bet na sai nawh boeimang thangleeknaak ing sing hyk ti.

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

Na kut saikhqi boeih ukkung na ta nawh, a khawk kaiawh ik-oeihkhqi boeih ce taak pe hyk ti.

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

Tui a nga ingkaw kqawng nakaw qamsa boeih,

8 The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passes through the paths of the seas.

khawnghi nakaw chukphakhqi, tuih khui nakaw lum a nga boeih ingkaw tuicunli awhkaw ak cawlhtat boeih ce a khawk kaiawh taak pe hyk ti.

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

Aw Bawipa, kaimih a Bawipa, khawmdek pum awh nang ming qypawm soeih hy.
