Psalms 8

1 For the leader: A psalm of David, to be accompanied by a stringed instrument. Lord our God! How glorious in all the earth is your name! Your praise reaches as high as the heavens,

大卫的诗，交与伶长。用迦特乐器。 耶和华—我们的主啊， 你的名在全地何其美！ 你将你的荣耀彰显于天。

2 from the mouths of children and infants. You have built a fortress against your enemies, to silence the foe and the rebel.

你因敌人的缘故， 从婴孩和吃奶的口中， 建立了能力， 使仇敌和报仇的闭口无言。

3 When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set there,

我观看你指头所造的天， 并你所陈设的月亮星宿，

4 what are mortals, that you think of them, humans, that you visit them?

便说：人算什么，你竟顾念他！ 世人算什么，你竟眷顾他！

5 Yet you made them little less than divine, crowned them with glory and majesty,

你叫他比天使微小一点， 并赐他荣耀尊贵为冠冕。

6 made them lord of the works of your hands, put all things under their feet –

你派他管理你手所造的， 使万物，就是一切的牛羊、 田野的兽、空中的鸟、海里的鱼， 凡经行海道的，都服在他的脚下。

7 sheep and oxen, all of them; and the wild beasts also:

8 birds of the air, and fish of the sea, and all that crosses the paths of the ocean.

9 Lord our God! How glorious in all the earth is your name!

耶和华—我们的主啊， 你的名在全地何其美！
