Psalmi 8

1 Gospode, Gospode naš! kako je velièanstveno ime tvoje po svoj zemlji! Podigao si slavu svoju više nebesa.

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 U ustima male djece i koja sisaju èiniš sebi hvalu nasuprot neprijateljima svojim, da bi uèinio da zamukne neprijatelj i nemirnik.

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 Kad pogledam nebesa tvoja, djelo prsta tvojih, mjesec i zvijezde, koje si ti postavio;

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

4 Šta je èovjek, te ga se opominješ, ili sin èovjeèji, te ga polaziš?

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

5 Uèinio si ga malo manjega od anðela, slavom i èašæu vjenèao si ga;

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

6 Postavio si ga gospodarom nad djelima ruku svojih, sve si metnuo pod noge njegove,

And hast set him over the works of thy hands.

7 Ovce i volove sve, i divlje zvjerinje,

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

8 Ptice nebeske i ribe morske, što god ide morskim putovima.

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

9 Gospode, Gospode naš! kako je velièanstveno ime tvoje po svoj zemlji!

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