The Glory of the Lord in Creation
To the Chief Musician. On the instrument of Gath. A Psalm of David.
1O Lord, our Lord,
How ⚓excellent is Your name in all the earth,
Who have ⚓set Your glory above the heavens!
2⚓Out of the mouth of babes and nursing infants
You have ordained strength,
Because of Your enemies,
That You may silence ⚓the enemy and the avenger.
3When I ⚓consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers,
The moon and the stars, which You have ordained,
4⚓What is man that You are mindful of him,
And the son of man that You ⚓visit him?
5For You have made him a little lower than the angels,
And You have crowned him with glory and honor.
6⚓You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands;
⚓You have put all things under his feet,
7All sheep and oxen—
Even the beasts of the field,
8The birds of the air,
And the fish of the sea
That pass through the paths of the seas.
9⚓O Lord, our Lord,
How excellent is Your name in all the earth!

Vajtswv lub hwjchim thiab neeg li koob meej
Sau rau tus thawj hu nkauj, raws li neeg Ka lub suab. Yog Davi zaj nkauj.
1Au Yawmsaub uas yog peb tus tswv,
koj lub npe muaj hwjchim meej mom loj kawg
thoob ntiajteb lawm lauj!
Koj lub hwjchim ci ntsa iab saum ntuj
twb tau lo lus qhuas
2ntawm cov menyuam yaus
thiab cov menyuam mos lub qhov ncauj.
Koj tsim lub chaw thaiv koj cov yeeb ncuab,
thiab tswj kuv cov tshawj chim
thiab cov uas ua pauj rau kuv.
3Thaum kuv tsa muag ntsia saum ntuj
uas yog koj txhais tes tsim,
yog lub hli thiab tej hnub qub
uas koj teeb cia lawd,
4mas neeg yog dabtsi
es koj nco txog lawv,
thiab neeg tus tub yog dabtsi
es koj mob siab nws?
5Koj tau tsim nws qes dua Vajtswv⚓ mentsis,
thiab koj muab meej mom thiab koob meej
ua mom kub rau nws ntoo.
6Koj muab hwjchim rau nws
tswjhwm txhua yam uas koj txhais tes tsim,
koj muab txhua yam tso
rau hauv nws qab xib taws,
7yog txhua tus yaj txhua tus nyuj huvsi
thiab tej tsiaj qus,
8tej nas noog saum nruab ntug,
thiab tej ntses hauv hiavtxwv,
thiab txhua yam uas mus los hauv hiavtxwv.
9Au Yawmsaub uas yog peb tus Tswv,
koj lub npe muaj hwjchim meej mom loj kawg
thoob ntiajteb lawm lauj!
