1 Yahweh, our Lord, people all over the world know that you [MTY] are very great!

Your glory reaches up higher than the heavens!

2 You have taught little children and infants to praise you;

they cause your enemies and those who try to ◄get revenge on/get rid of► you to be silent.

3 When I look up at the sky at night,

and see the things that you have made—

the moon and the stars that you have set in place—

4 it is amazing to me that [RHQ] you think about people,

that you are concerned about us humans!

5 You made the angels in heaven to be only a little more important than we are;

you caused us to be like kings [MET] and you gave us splendor and honor [DOU]!

6 You put us in charge of everything that you made;

you gave us authority over all things—

7 the sheep and the cattle,

and even the wild animals,

8 the birds, the fish,

and everything else that swims in the seas.

9 Yahweh, our Lord,

people all over the world know that you [MTY] are very great!
