1 To the chief music-maker on the Gittith. A Psalm. Of David.
2 \8:1\O Lord, our Lord, whose glory is higher than the heavens, how noble is your name in all the earth!
3 \8:2\You have made clear your strength even out of the mouths of babies at the breast, because of those who are against you; so that you may put to shame the cruel and violent man.
4 \8:3\When I see your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have put in their places;
5 \8:4\What is man, that you keep him in mind? the son of man, that you take him into account?
6 \8:5\For you have made him only a little lower than the gods, crowning him with glory and honour.
7 \8:6\You have made him ruler over the works of your hands; you have put all things under his feet;
8 \8:7\All sheep and oxen, and all the beasts of the field;
9 \8:8\The birds of the air and the fish of the sea, and whatever goes through the deep waters of the seas.
10 \8:9\O Lord, our Lord, how noble is your name in all the earth!
1 Ki te tino kaiwhakatangi. Kititi. He himene na Rawiri. E Ihowa, e to matou Ariki, ano te nui o tou ingoa i te whenua katoa! Paku ana i a koe tou kororia ki runga ake i nga rangi!
2 U pu i a koe te kaha o te mangai o nga kohungahunga, o nga mea ngote u hei mea mo ou hoariri, hei pehi mo te hoariri, mo te kairapu utu.
3 Ka titiro ahau ki au rangi, ki te mahi a ou maihao, ki te marama, ki nga whetu, i hanga nei e koe;
4 He aha te tangata i maharatia ai e koe? te tama ranei a te tangata i tirohia ai ia e koe?
5 Nohinohi nei te wahi i whakaititia iho ai ia e koe i te Atua, karaunatia ana ia e koe ki te kororia, ki te honore.
6 Waiho iho e koe hei kingi mo nga mahi a ou ringa; kua waiho e koe nga mea katoa i raro i ona waewae;
7 Nga hipi katoa, nga puru, me nga kirehe katoa o te parae;
8 Te manu o te rangi, me te ika o te moana, e tere nei i nga ara o nga moana.
9 E Ihowa, e to matou Ariki, ano te nui o tou ingoa i te whenua katoa!
