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; on an instrument of Gath. A Psalm by David.] LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth. You have put your glory upon the heavens.

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

From the lips of children and infants you have established praise, because of your adversaries, that you might silence the enemy and the avenger.

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

When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars which you have set in place;

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

what is man, that you think of him, and the son of man that you care for him?

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

For you have made him a little lower than the angels. You have crowned him with glory and honor,

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

and you made him ruler 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 cattle, and also the wild animals,

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

the birds of the sky, and the fish of the sea, whatever passes through the paths of the seas.

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

LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth.
