Psalms 8

1 To the Chief Musician. On "the Gittith." A Melody of David. O Yahweh, our Lord! How majestic is thy Name, in all the earth, Who hast set thy splendour upon the heavens.

Kathutkung: Devit Oe kaimae Bawipa, Jehovah teh, talai van pueng dawk na min ahawi toungloung. Na bawilennae teh kalvannaw lathueng vah na ta.

2 Out of the mouth of children and sucklings, hast thou laid a foundation of strength, —because of thine adversaries, to make foe and avenger be still.

Bangkongtetpawiteh, na tarannaw kecu dawk moipathungkung hoi taran na roum sak thai nahanlah, sanu ka net e camonaw pahni dawk hoi thaonae hah na cak sak.

3 When I view thy heavens, the work, of thy fingers, moon and stars, which thou hast established,

Na kutdawn hoi na sak e kalvannaw hoi na caksak e thapa hoi âsinaw hah ka khet navah,

4 What was weak man, that thou shouldst make mention of him? or the son of the earthborn, that thou shouldst set him in charge?

tami heh banglamouh ao teh, na lungthung hoi na pouk. Tami capa heh banglamouh ao teh khuet na pai sin.

5 That thou shouldst make him little less than messengers of God, with glory and honour, shouldst crown him?

Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahni hah kalvantaminaw hlak bet ka rahnoum lah na sak teh, bawilennae hoi pholennae hah na kâmuk sak.

6 Shouldst give him dominion over the works of thy hands, —All things, shouldst have put under his feet:

Na kutsaknaw koe kâ na tawn sak teh, a khok rahim bangpuengpa na hruek pouh.

7 Sheep and oxen, all of them, —yea even the beasts of the field;

Maitotan hoi tu pueng hai, kahrawngum e saring pueng hoi,

8 The bird of the heavens, and the fishes of the sea, — the passer-by on the paths of the seas?

kalvan e tavanaw hoi, talî thung e tanganaw hoi, talaipui thung kaawm e pueng hoi,

9 O Yahweh, our Lord! How majestic is thy Name, in all the earth.

Oe BAWIPA, kaimae Bawipa, talai van pueng dawk na min teh ahawi toungloung.
