CEB

NIV

1 LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name throughout the earth! You made your glory higher than heaven!
1 LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory in the heavens.
2 From the mouths of nursing babies you have laid a strong foundation because of your foes, in order to stop vengeful enemies.
2 Through the praise of children and infants you have established a stronghold against your enemies, to silence the foe and the avenger.
3 When I look up at your skies, at what your fingers made— the moon and the stars that you set firmly 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 are human beings that you think about them; what are human beings that you pay attention to them?
4 what is mankind that you are mindful of them, human beings that you care for them?
5 You've made them only slightly less than divine, crowning them with glory and grandeur.
5 You have made them a little lower than the angelsand crowned them with glory and honor.
6 You've let them rule over your handiwork, putting everything under their feet—
6 You made them rulers over the works of your hands; you put everything under their feet:
7 all sheep and all cattle, the wild animals too,
7 all flocks and herds, and the animals of the wild,
8 the birds in the sky, the fish of the ocean, everything that travels the pathways of the sea.
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 throughout the earth!
9 LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
