Psalms 8

1 To the Chief Musician. On "the Gittith." A Melody of David. O Yahweh, our Lord! How majestic is thy Name, in all the earth, Who hast set thy splendour upon 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 Out of the mouth of children and sucklings, hast thou laid a foundation of strength, —because of thine adversaries, to make foe and avenger be still.

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 view thy heavens, the work, of thy fingers, moon and stars, which thou hast established,

我观看你指头所造的天， 并你所陈设的月亮星宿，

4 What was weak man, that thou shouldst make mention of him? or the son of the earthborn, that thou shouldst set him in charge?

便说：人算什么，你竟顾念他！ 世人算什么，你竟眷顾他！

5 That thou shouldst make him little less than messengers of God, with glory and honour, shouldst crown him?

你叫他比天使微小一点， 并赐他荣耀尊贵为冠冕。

6 Shouldst give him dominion over the works of thy hands, —All things, shouldst have put under his 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, —yea even the beasts of the field;

8 The bird of the heavens, and the fishes of the sea, — the passer-by on the paths of the seas?

9 O Yahweh, our Lord! How majestic is thy Name, in all the earth.

耶和华—我们的主啊， 你的名在全地何其美！
