耶和华我们的主阿、你的名在全地何其美。你将你的荣耀彰显于天。你因敌人的缘故、从婴孩和吃奶的口中、建立了能力、使仇敌和报仇的、闭口无言。
我观看你指头所造的天、并你所陈设的月亮星宿、便说、人算什么、你竟顾念他。世人算什么、你竟眷顾他。你叫他比天使(或作 神)微小一点、并赐他荣耀尊贵为冠冕。你派他管理你手所造的、使万物、就是一切的牛羊、田野的兽、空中的鸟、海里的鱼、凡经行海道的、都服在他的脚下。耶和华我们的主阿、你的名在全地何其美(圣经·诗篇8章)
——
To the director,[35] on the gittith.[36] A song of David.[37]
Lord our Master,your name is the most wonderful name in all the earth!Your name brings you praise every where in heaven.From the mouths of children and babies
come songs of praise to you.
They sing of your power to silence your enemies who were seeking revenge.
I look at the heavens that you made with your hands.
I see the moon and stars you created, and I wonder:
Why are people so important to you?
Why do you even remember them?
Why are people[38] so important to you?
Why do you even notice them? Yet, you made people[39] almost like gods
and crowned them with glory and honor.
You put them in charge of everything you made.
You put everything under their[40] control.People rule over the sheep and cattle and all the wild animals.They rule over the birds in the sky and over the fish that swim in the ocean currents.
Lord our Master,your name is the most wonderful name in all the earth!

[35] 8:17 director This title is part of a phrase found at the beginning of many of the Psalms. It could also mean “performer.”
[36] 8:17 gittith This might be a type of instrument, a tune, or a performer in the Temple orchestra such as Obed Edom from Gath (the Gittite). See I Chron. 15:21; 16:4-7.
[37] 8:17 song of David This phrase (or a variation of it) is found at the beginning of many of the Psalms. It could also mean “a song dedicated to David.”
[38] 8:4 people … people Literally, “man … son of man” or “Enosh … son of Adam.” This is a Hebrew way of saying humans—descendants of Adam and Enosh.
[39] 8:5 people Literally, “him.” This is still talking about “man” and “son of man” and can be understood as one person or as all people.
[40] 8:6 their Literally, “his.”
