Божието величие и човешкото достойнство

За първия певец. На гетски струнен инструмент. Псалом на Давид.

[a] Господи, Боже наш, колко е величествено Твоето име по цялата земя!
Твоята слава се простира над небесата.
(A)От устата на деца и кърмачета
Ти си подготвил похвала.
Когато гледам Твоите небеса, делото на Твоите пръсти,
луната и звездите, които си поставил, казвам си:
(B)(C)„Какво е човекът, та го помниш,
и човешкото същество, та се грижиш за него?“
(D)Понижил си го малко спрямо ангелите,
със слава и чест си го увенчал.
(E)Поставил си го да владее над делата на Твоите ръце.
Покорил си всичко под краката му:
волове и овце,
така също и дивите животни;
птиците в небето и рибите в морето,
всичко, което прекосява морските води.
10 Господи, Боже наш,
колко е величествено Твоето име по цялата земя!

  1. 8:2 В Синодалната и Цариградската Библия 8:2 е част от 8:1.

耶和華之榮耀人之尊貴

大衛的詩,交於伶長。用迦特樂器。

耶和華我們的主啊,你的名在全地何其美,你將你的榮耀彰顯於天!
你因敵人的緣故,從嬰孩和吃奶的口中建立了能力,使仇敵和報仇的閉口無言。
我觀看你指頭所造的天,並你所陳設的月亮星宿,
便說:「人算什麼,你竟顧念他?世人算什麼,你竟眷顧他?
你叫他比天使[a]微小一點,並賜他榮耀尊貴為冠冕。
你派他管理你手所造的,使萬物,就是一切的牛羊,田野的獸,空中的鳥,海裡的魚,凡經行海道的,都服在他的腳下。」
耶和華我們的主啊,你的名在全地何其美!

  1. 詩篇 8:5 或作:神。

O Lord, our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens.

Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.

When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;

What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?

For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.

Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet:

All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field;

The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas.

O Lord our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!

The Glory of the Lord in Creation

To the Chief Musician. [a]On the instrument of Gath. A Psalm of David.

O Lord, our Lord,
How (A)excellent is Your name in all the earth,
Who have (B)set Your glory above the heavens!

(C)Out of the mouth of babes and nursing infants
You have [b]ordained strength,
Because of Your enemies,
That You may silence (D)the enemy and the avenger.

When I (E)consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers,
The moon and the stars, which You have ordained,
(F)What is man that You are mindful of him,
And the son of man that You (G)visit[c] him?
For You have made him a little lower than [d]the angels,
And You have crowned him with glory and honor.

(H)You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands;
(I)You have put all things under his feet,
All sheep and oxen—
Even the beasts of the field,
The birds of the air,
And the fish of the sea
That pass through the paths of the seas.

(J)O Lord, our Lord,
How excellent is Your name in all the earth!
