| 1LORD, our Lord, how excellent is your name in all the earth! You set your glory above the heavens! | 1O LORD, our Lord, your majestic name fills the earth! Your glory is higher than the heavens. |
| 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. | 2You have taught children and infants to tell of your strength, silencing your enemies and all who oppose you. |
| 3When I look at the heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars that you established— | 3When I look at the night sky and see the work of your fingers— the moon and the stars you set in place— |
| 4what is man that you take notice of him, or the son of man that you pay attention to him? | 4what are mere mortals that you should think about them, human beings that you should care for them? |
| 5You made him a little less than divine, but you crowned him with glory and honor. | 5Yet you made them only a little lower than God and crowned them with glory and honor. |
| 6You gave him dominion over the work of your hands, you put all things under his feet: | 6You gave them charge of everything you made, putting all things under their authority— |
| 7Sheep and cattle—all of them, wild creatures of the field, | 7the flocks and the herds and all the wild animals, |
| 8birds in the sky, fish in the sea— whatever moves through the currents of the oceans. | 8the birds in the sky, the fish in the sea, and everything that swims the ocean currents. |
| 9LORD, our Lord, how excellent is your name in all the earth! | 9O LORD, our Lord, your majestic name fills the earth! |
