Psalms 8

1 To the Overseer, 'On the Gittith.' A Psalm of David. Jehovah, our Lord, How honourable Thy name in all the earth! Who settest thine honour on 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 From the mouths of infants and sucklings Thou hast founded strength, Because of Thine adversaries, To still an enemy and a self-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 For I see Thy heavens, a work of Thy fingers, Moon and stars that Thou didst establish.

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 Thou rememberest him? The son of man that Thou inspectest him?

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

5 And causest him to lack a little of Godhead, And with honour and majesty compassest him.

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

6 Thou dost cause him to rule Over the works of Thy hands, All Thou hast placed under his feet.

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

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

Tui a nga ingkaw kqawng nakaw qamsa boeih,

8 Bird of the heavens, and fish of the sea, Passing 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 Jehovah, our Lord, How honourable Thy name in all the earth!

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