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

For the chief musician; set to the gittith style. A psalm of David. Yahweh our Lord, how magnificent is your name in all the earth, you who reveal your glory in the heavens above.

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

Out of the mouth of babies and infants you have established praise because of your enemies, so that you might silence both the enemy and the avenger.

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

When I look up at your heavens, which your fingers have made, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place,

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

Of what importance is the human race that you notice them, or mankind that you pay attention to them?

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

Yet you have made them only a little lower than the heavenly beings and have crowned them with glory and honor.

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

You make him to rule over the works of your hands; you have put all things under his feet:

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

all sheep and oxen, and even the animals of the field,

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

the birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea, everything that passes through the currents of the seas.

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

Yahweh our Lord, how magnificent is your name in all the earth!
