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

TO THE OVERSEER. ON THE GITTITH. A PSALM OF DAVID. YHWH, our Lord, How majestic [is] Your Name in all the earth, Who have set Your splendor on the heavens!

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

From the mouths of infants and sucklings You have founded strength, Because of Your adversaries, To still an enemy and a self-avenger.

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

For I see Your heavens, a work of Your fingers, [The] moon and stars that You established.

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

What [is] man that You remember him? The son of man that You inspect him?

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

You make him a little lower than the gods [[or God]], And surround him with glory and majesty.

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

You cause him to rule Over the works of Your hands, You have placed all under his feet.

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

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

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

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

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

YHWH, our Lord, How majestic [is] Your Name in all the earth!
