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.

To the choirmaster on the Gittith a psalm of David. O Yahweh lord our how! majestic [is] name your in all the earth [the one] who set! splendor your above the heavens.

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

From [the] mouth of children - and suckling-children you have established strength on account of opposers your to put an end to an enemy and an avenger.

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

If I will see heavens your [the] works fingers your [the] moon and [the] stars which you have established.

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

What? [is] humankind that you will remember him and a son of humankind that you will pay attention to him.

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

And you have made lack him little from God and honor and majesty you crown him.

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

You make rule him over [the] works of hands your everything you have put under feet his.

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

Sheep and cattle all of them and also [the] animals of [the] field.

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

[the] bird[s] of [the] heavens And [the] fish of the sea [that which] passes through [the] paths of [the] seas.

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

O Yahweh lord our how! majestic [is] name your in all the earth.
