Mazmur 8

1 Untuk pemimpin kor. Menurut lagu Gitit. Mazmur Daud. Ya TUHAN, Allah kami, kuasa-Mu termasyhur di seluruh bumi! Keagungan-Mu yang mengatasi langit

Unto the end, for the presses: a psalm of David. O Lord our Lord, how admirable is thy name in the whole earth! For thy magnificence is elevated above the heavens.

2 dinyanyikan oleh anak-anak dan bayi. Pemerintahan-Mu teguh tak tergoyahkan untuk membungkamkan musuh dan lawan.

Out of the mouth of infants and of sucklings thou hast perfected praise, because of thy enemies, that thou mayst destroy the enemy and the avenger.

3 Bila kupandang langit yang Kauciptakan, bulan dan bintang-bintang yang Kaupasang,

For I will behold thy heavens, the works of thy fingers: the moon and the stars which thou hast founded.

4 apakah manusia itu, sehingga Kauingat dia, siapakah dia, sehingga Kaupelihara?

What is man that thou art mindful of him? or the son of man that thou visitest hi?

5 Tetapi Kauangkat dia hampir setara dengan Allah, kaumahkotai dia dengan keagungan dan kehormatan.

Thou hast made him a little less than the angels, thou hast crowned him with glory and honour:

6 Kauberi dia kuasa atas alam raya, seluruh ciptaan-Mu Kautundukkan kepadanya:

And hast set him over the works of thy hands.

7 domba, sapi dan ternak semuanya, juga binatang di padang belantara;

Thou hast subjected all things under his feet, all sheep and oxen: moreover the beasts also of the fields.

8 burung-burung dan ikan-ikan, semua makhluk di dalam lautan.

The birds of the air, and the fishes of the sea, that pass through the paths of the sea.

9 Ya TUHAN, Tuhan kami, keagungan-Mu termasyhur di seluruh bumi!

O Lord our Lord, how admirable is thy name in all the earth!
