Christian Standard BibleNET Bible
1LORD, our Lord, how magnificent is your name throughout the earth! You have covered the heavens with your majesty.1For the music director, according to the gittith style; a psalm of David. O LORD, our Lord, how magnificent is your reputation throughout the earth! You reveal your majesty in the heavens above!
2From the mouths of infants and nursing babies, you have established a stronghold on account of your adversaries in order to silence the enemy and the avenger.2From the mouths of children and nursing babies you have ordained praise on account of your adversaries, so that you might put an end to the vindictive enemy.
3When I observe your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you set in place,3When I look up at the heavens, which your fingers made, and see the moon and the stars, which you set in place,
4what is a human being that you remember him, a son of man that you look after him?4Of what importance is the human race, that you should notice them? Of what importance is mankind, that you should pay attention to them,
5You made him little less than God and crowned him with glory and honor.5and make them a little less than the heavenly beings? You grant mankind honor and majesty;
6You made him ruler over the works of your hands; you put everything under his feet:6you appoint them to rule over your creation; you have placed everything under their authority,
7all the sheep and oxen, as well as the animals in the wild,7including all the sheep and cattle, as well as the wild animals,
8the birds of the sky, and the fish of the sea that pass through the currents of the seas.8the birds in the sky, the fish in the sea and everything that moves through the currents of the seas.
9LORD, our Lord, how magnificent is your name throughout the earth!9O LORD, our Lord, how magnificent is your reputation throughout the earth!
