Psalmi 8

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

For the Leader; upon the Gittith. A Psalm of David. O LORD, our Lord, how glorious is Thy name in all the earth! whose majesty is rehearsed 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 babes and sucklings hast Thou founded strength, because of Thine adversaries; that Thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.

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

When I behold Thy heavens, the work of Thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which Thou hast established;

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

What is man, that Thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that Thou thinkest of him?

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

Yet Thou hast made him but little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.

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

Thou hast made him to have dominion over the works of Thy hands; Thou hast put all things under His feet:

7 Ovce i volove sve, i divlje zvjerinje,

Sheep and oxen, all of them, yea, and the beasts of the field;

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

The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea; whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas.

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

O LORD, our Lord, how glorious is Thy name in all the earth!
