Psalms 8

1 Fún adarí orin. Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ti gittiti. Saamu ti Dafidi. Olúwa, Olúwa wa, orúkọ rẹ̀ ti ní ìyìn tó ní gbogbo ayé! Ìwọ ti gbé ògo rẹ ga ju àwọn ọ̀run lọ.

To the chief music-maker on the Gittith. A Psalm. Of David. O Lord, our Lord, whose glory is higher than the heavens, how noble is your name in all the earth!

2 Láti ẹnu ọmọ ọwọ́ àti ọmọ ọmú ni o ti yan ìyìn nítorí àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ, láti pa àwọn ọ̀tá àti àwọn olùgbẹ̀san lẹ́nu mọ́.

You have made clear your strength even out of the mouths of babies at the breast, because of those who are against you; so that you may put to shame the cruel and violent man.

3 Nígbà tí mo ro ọ̀run rẹ, iṣẹ́ ìka rẹ, òṣùpá àti ìràwọ̀, tí ìwọ tí gbé kalẹ̀,

When I see your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have put in their places;

4 kí ni ènìyàn tí ìwọ ń rò nípa rẹ̀, àní ọmọ ènìyàn tí ìwọ ń ṣe ìtọ́jú rẹ̀?

What is man, that you keep him in mind? the son of man, that you take him into account?

5 Ìwọ ṣe é ní onírẹ̀lẹ̀ díẹ̀ ju Ọlọ́run lọ, ìwọ sì dé e ní adé ògo àti ọlá.

For you have made him only a little lower than the gods, crowning him with glory and honour.

6 Ìwọ mú un jẹ ọba lórí gbogbo iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ rẹ; ìwọ sì fi ohun gbogbo sí abẹ́ ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀:

You have made him ruler over the works of your hands; you have put all things under his feet;

7 àwọn agbo àgùntàn àti àwọn màlúù, àti ẹranko igbó,

All sheep and oxen, and all the beasts of the field;

8 ẹyẹ ojú ọrun, àti ẹja inú Òkun, àti ohun tí ń wẹ nínú ipa Òkun.

The birds of the air and the fish of the sea, and whatever goes through the deep waters of the seas.

9 Olúwa, Olúwa wa, orúkọ rẹ ti ní ìyìn tó ní gbogbo ayé!

O Lord, our Lord, how noble is your name in all the earth!
