Psalms 8

1 TO THE OVERSEER. ON THE GITTITH. A PSALM OF DAVID. YHWH, our Lord, How majestic [is] Your Name in all the earth, Who have set Your splendor on the heavens!

【人的尊威】 達味詩歌，交與槳官。調寄「加特」。 上主，我們的主！你的名號在普世何其美妼！你的尊榮在天上彰顯光耀。

2 From the mouths of infants and sucklings You have founded strength, Because of Your adversaries, To still an enemy and a self-avenger.

由赤子乳兒的口中，你取得完美的讚頌；為使恨你的人受辱，為使仇敵有口無用。

3 For I see Your heavens, a work of Your fingers, [The] moon and stars that You established.

當我仰望你手指創造的穹蒼，和你在天上布置的星辰月亮，

4 What [is] man that You remember him? The son of man that You inspect him?

世人算什麼，你竟對他懷念不忘？人子算什麼，你竟對他眷顧周詳？

5 You make him a little lower than the gods [[or God]], And surround him with glory and majesty.

竟使他稍微遜於天神，以尊貴光榮作他冠冕，

6 You cause him to rule Over the works of Your hands, You have placed all under his feet.

令他統治你手的造化，將一切放在他的腳下：

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

所有的羊和牛，與野外的走獸，

8 Bird of the heavens, and fish of the sea, Passing through the paths of the seas!

天空的飛鳥和海裏的魚類，及種種游泳於海道的水族。

9 YHWH, our Lord, How majestic [is] Your Name in all the earth!

上主，我們的主！你的名號在普世何其美妙！
