| 1For 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. | 1LORD, our Lord, how excellent is your name in all the earth! You set your glory above the heavens! |
| 2From the mouths of children and infants You have ordained praise on account of Your adversaries, to silence the enemy and avenger. | 2Out of the mouths of infants and nursing babies you have established strength on account of your adversaries, in order to silence the enemy and vengeful foe. |
| 3When I behold Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have set in place— | 3When I look at the heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars that you established— |
| 4what is man that You are mindful of him, or the son of man that You care for him? | 4what is man that you take notice of him, or the son of man that you pay attention to him? |
| 5You made him a little lower than the angels; You crowned him with glory and honor. | 5You made him a little less than divine, but you crowned him with glory and honor. |
| 6You made him ruler of the works of Your hands; You have placed everything under his feet: | 6You gave him dominion over the work of your hands, you put all things under his feet: |
| 7all sheep and oxen, and even the beasts of the field, | 7Sheep and cattle—all of them, wild creatures of the field, |
| 8the birds of the air and the fish of the sea, all that swim the paths of the seas. | 8birds in the sky, fish in the sea— whatever moves through the currents of the oceans. |
| 9O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth! | 9LORD, our Lord, how excellent is your name in all the earth! |
