NLT Parallel HCSB [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
New Living TranslationHolman Christian Standard Bible
1O LORD, our Lord, your majestic name fills the earth! Your glory is higher than the heavens.1For the choir director: on the Gittith. A Davidic psalm. Yahweh, our Lord, how magnificent is Your name throughout the earth! You have covered the heavens with Your majesty.
2You have taught children and infants to tell of your strength, silencing your enemies and all who oppose you.2Because of Your adversaries, You have established a stronghold from the mouths of children and nursing infants to silence the enemy and the avenger.
3When I look at the night sky and see the work of your fingers— the moon and the stars you set in place—3When I observe Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You set in place,
4what are mere mortals that you should think about them, human beings that you should care for them?4what is man that You remember him, the son of man that You look after him?
5Yet you made them only a little lower than God and crowned them with glory and honor.5You made him little less than God and crowned him with glory and honor.
6You gave them charge of everything you made, putting all things under their authority—6You made him lord over the works of Your hands; You put everything under his feet:
7the flocks and the herds and all the wild animals,7all the sheep and oxen, as well as the animals in the wild,
8the birds in the sky, the fish in the sea, and everything that swims the ocean currents.8the birds of the sky, and the fish of the sea that pass through the currents of the seas.
9O LORD, our Lord, your majestic name fills the earth!9Yahweh, our Lord, how magnificent is Your name throughout the earth!
