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.

Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira Al-hagitith. Salamo nataon’ i Davida. Jehovah, Tomponay ô, endrey ny voninahitry ny anaranao amin’ ny tany rehetra! nataonao eny amin’ ny lanitra ny voninahitrao.

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

Avy amin’ ny vavan’ ny ankizy madinika sy ny minono no nanorenanao hery noho ny mpandrafy Anao, mba hampanginanao ny fahavalo sy izay ta-hamaly ratsy.

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

Raha jereko ny lanitrao, izay asan’ ny rantsan-tananao, sy ny volana aman-kintana, izay noforoninao,

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

Inona moa ny olona, no ahatsiarovanao azy? Ary ny zanak’ olombelona, no amangianao azy?

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

Fa efa nataonao ambany kely noho Andriamanitra izy, ary efa nosatrohanao voninahitra sy fiandrianana.

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

Efa nampanjakainao amin’ ny asan’ ny tananao izy; ny zavatra rehetra dia efa nataonao eo ambanin’ ny tongony,

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

Dia ny ondry aman’ osy sy ny omby rehetra, ary ny bibidia koa,

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

Mbamin’ ny voro-manidina sy ny hazandrano any an-dranomasina, izay mandeha amin’ ny lalan-dranomasina.

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

Jehovah Tomponay ô, endrey ny voninahitry ny anaranao amin’ ny tany rehetra!
