Psalms 8
1 Yahweh, our Lord, people all over the world know that you [MTY] are very great! Your glory reaches up higher than the heavens!
Ki he Takimuʻa ʻi he Kitita, ko e Saame ʻa Tevita. ʻE Sihova ko homau ʻEiki, ʻoku lelei lahi ho huafa ʻi māmani kotoa pē! Kuo ke fokotuʻu ho nāunau ʻi ʻolunga ʻi he ngaahi langi.
2 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.
Kuo ke tuʻutuʻuni mei he ngutu ʻoe kau valevale mo e kei huhu ʻae mālohi, ko e meʻa ʻi ho ngaahi fili, koeʻuhi ke ke pule ke fakalongo pē ʻae fili mo e fakafāsifasi.
3 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—
ʻO kau ka fakakaukau ki ho ngaahi langi, ko e ngāue ʻo ho louhiʻi nima, ko e māhina mo e ngaahi fetuʻu, ʻaia naʻa ke fokotuʻu;
4 it is amazing [to me] that [RHQ] you think about people, that you are concerned about [us] humans!
Ko e hā ʻae tangata ʻoku ke tokanga ai kiate ia? Pe ko e foha ʻae tangata, ʻoku ke ʻaʻahi ai kiate ia?
5 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]!
He kuo ke ngaohi ia ke māʻulalo siʻi ʻi he ngaahi ʻāngelo, pea kuo ke tatāʻaki ia ʻae nāunau mo e ongoongolelei.
6 You put us in charge of everything that you made; you gave us authority over all things—
Naʻa ke fakanofo ia ke ne pule ki he ngaahi ngāue ʻa ho nima; kuo ke tuku ʻae meʻa kotoa pē ki hono lalo vaʻe:
7 the sheep and the cattle, and even the wild animals,
ʻAe fanga sipi kotoa pē mo e fanga pulu, ʻio, mo e ngaahi manu ʻoe fonua;
8 the birds, the fish, and everything [else] that swims in the seas.
Ko e manupuna ʻoe ʻatā, mo e ika ʻoe tahi, mo e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ʻalu ʻi he ngaahi ʻaluʻanga ʻi he tahi.
9 Yahweh, our Lord, people all over the world know that you [MTY] are very great!
ʻE Sihova ko homau ʻEiki, ʻoku lelei lahi ho huafa ʻi māmani kotoa pē!
