Psalms 8

1 For the choirmaster. According to Gittith. A Psalm of David. O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth! You have set Your glory above the heavens.

1 Ee Bwana, Bwana wetu, tazama jinsi lilivyo tukufu jina lako duniani mwote! Umeuweka utukufu wako juu ya mbingu.

2 From the mouths of children and infants You have ordained praise on account of Your adversaries, to silence the enemy and avenger.

2 Midomoni mwa watoto wachanga na wanyonyao umeamuru sifa, kwa sababu ya watesi wako, kumnyamazisha adui na mlipiza kisasi.

3 When I behold Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have set in place—

3 Nikiziangalia mbingu zako, kazi ya vidole vyako, mwezi na nyota, ulizoziratibisha,

4 what is man that You are mindful of him, or the son of man that You care for him?

4 mwanadamu ni kitu gani hata unamfikiria, binadamu ni nani hata unamjali?

5 You made him a little lower than the angels; You crowned him with glory and honor.

5 Umemfanya chini kidogo kuliko viumbe wa mbinguni, ukamvika taji ya utukufu na heshima.

6 You made him ruler of the works of Your hands; You have placed everything under his feet:

6 Umemfanya mtawala juu ya kazi za mikono yako; umeweka vitu vyote chini ya miguu yake.

7 all sheep and oxen, and even the beasts of the field,

7 Mifugo na makundi yote pia, naam, na wanyama wa kondeni,

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

8 ndege wa angani na samaki wa baharini, naam, kila kiogeleacho katika njia za bahari.

9 O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth!

9 Ee Bwana, Bwana wetu, tazama jinsi lilivyo tukufu jina lako duniani mwote!
