| 3When I behold Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have set in place— | 3When I observe your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you set in place, |
| 4what is man that You are mindful of him, or the son of man that You care for him? | 4what is a human being that you remember him, a son of man that you look after him? |
| 5You made him a little lower than the angels; You crowned him with glory and honor. | 5You made him little less than God and crowned him with glory and honor. |
| 6You made him ruler of the works of Your hands; You have placed everything under his feet: | 6You made him ruler over the works of your hands; you put everything under his feet: |
| 7all sheep and oxen, and even the beasts of the field, | 7all the sheep and oxen, as well as the animals in the wild, |
| 8the birds of the air and the fish of the sea, all that swim the paths of the seas. | 8the birds of the sky, and the fish of the sea that pass through the currents of the seas. |
| 9O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth! | 9LORD, our Lord, how magnificent is your name throughout the earth! |
