Psalms 8

1 To him that excelleth on Gittith. A Psalme of Dauid. O Lord our Lord, how excellent is thy Name in all the worlde! which hast set thy glory aboue the heauens.

Ho an’ ny mpiventy hira Al-hagitith. Salamo nataon’ i Davida. Jehovah, Tomponay ô, endrey ny voninahitry ny anaranao amin’ ny tany rehetra! nataonao eny amin’ ny lanitra ny voninahitrao.

2 Out of the mouth of babes and suckelings hast thou ordeined strength, because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemie and the auenger.

Avy amin’ ny vavan’ ny ankizy madinika sy ny minono no nanorenanao hery noho ny mpandrafy Anao, mba hampanginanao ny fahavalo sy izay ta-hamaly ratsy.

3 When I beholde thine heauens, euen the workes of thy fingers, the moone and the starres which thou hast ordeined,

Raha jereko ny lanitrao, izay asan’ ny rantsan-tananao, sy ny volana aman-kintana, izay noforoninao,

4 What is man, say I, that thou art mindefull of him? and the sonne of man, that thou visitest him?

Inona moa ny olona, no ahatsiarovanao azy? Ary ny zanak’ olombelona, no amangianao azy?

5 For thou hast made him a little lower then God, and crowned him with glory and worship.

Fa efa nataonao ambany kely noho Andriamanitra izy, ary efa nosatrohanao voninahitra sy fiandrianana.

6 Thou hast made him to haue dominion in the workes of thine hands: thou hast put all things vnder his feete:

Efa nampanjakainao amin’ ny asan’ ny tananao izy; ny zavatra rehetra dia efa nataonao eo ambanin’ ny tongony,

7 All sheepe and oxen: yea, and the beastes of the fielde:

Dia ny ondry aman’ osy sy ny omby rehetra, ary ny bibidia koa,

8 The foules of the ayre, and the fish of the sea, and that which passeth through the paths of the seas.

Mbamin’ ny voro-manidina sy ny hazandrano any an-dranomasina, izay mandeha amin’ ny lalan-dranomasina.

9 O Lord our Lord, howe excellent is thy Name in all the world!

Jehovah Tomponay ô, endrey ny voninahitry ny anaranao amin’ ny tany rehetra!
