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.

大衛的詩，交與伶長。用迦特樂器。 耶和華－我們的主啊， 你的名在全地何其美！ 你將你的榮耀彰顯於天。

2 From the mouths of infants and sucklings Thou hast founded strength, Because of Thine adversaries, To still an enemy and a self-avenger.

你因敵人的緣故， 從嬰孩和吃奶的口中， 建立了能力， 使仇敵和報仇的閉口無言。

3 For I see Thy heavens, a work of Thy fingers, Moon and stars that Thou didst establish.

我觀看你指頭所造的天， 並你所陳設的月亮星宿，

4 What [is] man that Thou rememberest him? The son of man that Thou inspectest him?

便說：人算甚麼，你竟顧念他！ 世人算甚麼，你竟眷顧他！

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

你叫他比天使微小一點， 並賜他榮耀尊貴為冠冕。

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

你派他管理你手所造的， 使萬物，就是一切的牛羊、 田野的獸、空中的鳥、海裏的魚， 凡經行海道的，都服在他的腳下。

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

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

9 Jehovah, our Lord, How honourable Thy name in all the earth!

耶和華－我們的主啊， 你的名在全地何其美！
