1 Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in the whole earth! You have made your glory higher than the heavens.
1 LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory in the heavens.
2 You have made sure that children and infants praise you. You have done it because of your enemies. You have done it to put a stop to their talk.
2 Through the praise of children and infants you have established a stronghold against your enemies, to silence the foe and the avenger.
3 I think about the heavens. I think about what your fingers have created. I think about the moon and stars that you have set in place.
3 When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place,
4 What is a human being that you think about him? What is a son of man that you take care of him?
4 what is mankind that you are mindful of them, human beings that you care for them?
5 You made him a little lower than the heavenly beings. You placed on him a crown of glory and honor.
5 You have made them a little lower than the angelsand crowned them with glory and honor.
6 You made human beings the rulers over all that your hands have created. You put everything under their control.
6 You made them rulers over the works of your hands; you put everything under their feet:
7 They rule over all flocks and herds and over the wild animals.
7 all flocks and herds, and the animals of the wild,
8 They rule over the birds of the air and over the fish in the ocean. They rule over everything that swims in the oceans.
8 the birds in the sky, and the fish in the sea, all that swim the paths of the seas.
9 Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in the whole earth!
9 LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
