ISV Parallel HCSB [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
International Standard VersionHolman Christian Standard Bible
1LORD, our Lord, how excellent is your name in all the earth! You set your glory above the heavens!1For the choir director: on the Gittith. A Davidic psalm. Yahweh, our Lord, how magnificent is Your name throughout the earth! You have covered the heavens with Your majesty.
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.2Because of Your adversaries, You have established a stronghold from the mouths of children and nursing infants to silence the enemy and the avenger.
3When I look at the heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars that you established—3When I observe Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which 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 is man that You remember him, the son of man that You look after him?
5You made him a little less than divine, but you crowned him with glory and honor.5You made him little less than God and crowned him with glory and honor.
6You gave him dominion over the work of your hands, you put all things under his feet:6You made him lord over the works of Your hands; You put everything under his feet:
7Sheep and cattle—all of them, wild creatures of the field,7all the sheep and oxen, as well as the animals in the wild,
8birds in the sky, fish in the sea— whatever moves through the currents of the oceans.8the birds of the sky, and the fish of the sea that pass through the currents of the seas.
9LORD, our Lord, how excellent is your name in all the earth!9Yahweh, our Lord, how magnificent is Your name throughout the earth!
