1 LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory in the heavens.

1 LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name throughout the earth! You made your glory higher than heaven!

2 Through the praise of children and infants you have established a stronghold against your enemies, to silence the foe and the avenger.

2 From the mouths of nursing babies you have laid a strong foundation because of your foes, in order to stop vengeful enemies.

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

3 When I look up at your skies, at what your fingers made— the moon and the stars that you set firmly in place—

4 what is mankind that you are mindful of them, human beings that you care for them?

4 what are human beings that you think about them; what are human beings that you pay attention to them?

5 You have made them a little lower than the angelsand crowned them with glory and honor.

5 You've made them only slightly less than divine, crowning them with glory and grandeur.

6 You made them rulers over the works of your hands; you put everything under their feet:

6 You've let them rule over your handiwork, putting everything under their feet—

7 all flocks and herds, and the animals of the wild,

7 all sheep and all cattle, the wild animals too,

8 the birds in the sky, and the fish in the sea, all that swim the paths of the seas.

8 the birds in the sky, the fish of the ocean, everything that travels the pathways of the sea.
