المَزامِير 8

١ 1 أَيُّهَا الرَّبُّ سَيِّدُنَا، مَا أَعْظَمَ اسْمَكَ فِي كُلِّ الأَرْضِ، بِهِ بَسَطْتَ جَلاَلَكَ فَوْقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ.

Yahweh, our Lord, people all over the world know that you [MTY] are very great! Your glory reaches up higher than the heavens!

٢ 2 مِنْ أَفْوَاهِ الأَطْفَالِ وَالرُّضَّعِ أَسَّسْتَ حَمْداً، لإِفْحَامِ خُصُومِكَ، وَإِسْكَاتِ عَدُوٍّ وَمُنْتَقِمٍ.

You have taught little children and infants to praise you; they cause your enemies and those who try to (get revenge on/get rid of) you to be silent.

٣ 3 عِنْدَمَا أَتَأَمَّلُ سَمَاوَاتِكَ الَّتِي أَبْدَعَتْهَا أَصَابِعُكَ، وَالْقَمَرَ وَالنُّجُومَ الَّتِي رَتَّبْتَ مَدَارَاتِهَا

When I look up at the sky [at night], and see the things that you have made— the moon and the stars that you have set in place—

٤ 4 أُسَائِلُ نَفْسِي: مَنْ هُوَ الإِنْسَانُ حَتَّى تَهْتَمَّ بِهِ؟ أَوِ «ابْنُ الإِنْسَانِ» حَتَّى تَعْتَبِرَهُ؟

it is amazing [to me] that [RHQ] you think about people, that you are concerned about [us] humans!

٥ 5 جَعَلْتَهُ أَدْنَى قَلِيلاً مِنَ الْمَلاَئِكَةِ إِلَى حِينٍ، ثُمَّ كَلَّلْتَهُ بِالْمَجْدِ وَالْكَرَامَةِ

You made the angels in heaven to be only a little more important than we are; you caused us to be like kings [MET] and you gave us splendor and honor [DOU]!

٦ 6 وَأَعْطَيْتَهُ السُّلْطَةَ عَلَى كُلِّ مَا صَنَعَتْهُ يَداكَ. أَخْضَعْتَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ تَحْتَ قَدَمَيْهِ.

You put us in charge of everything that you made; you gave us authority over all things—

٧ 7 الْغَنَمَ وَالْبَقَرَ وَجَمِيعَ الْمَوَاشِي، وَوُحُوشَ الْبَرِّيَّةِ أَيْضاً،

the sheep and the cattle, and even the wild animals,

٨ 8 وَالطُّيُورَ والأَسْمَاكَ وَجَمِيعَ الْحَيَوَانَاتِ الْمَائِيَّةِ.

the birds, the fish, and everything [else] that swims in the seas.

٩ 9 أَيُّهَا الرَّبُّ سَيِّدُنَا، مَا أَعْظَمَ اسْمَكَ فِي كُلِّ الأَرْضِ!

Yahweh, our Lord, people all over the world know that you [MTY] are very great!
