1Oh SEÑOR, soberano nuestro, ¡qué imponente es tu nombre en toda la tierra! ¡Has puesto tu gloria sobre los cielos!2Has enseñado a los pequeños y a los niños de pecho a rendirte perfecta alabanza. ¡Que su ejemplo avergüence a tus enemigos!3Cuando alzo la vista al cielo nocturno y contemplo la obra de tus manos, la luna y las estrellas que tú hiciste,4no logro comprender por qué te ocupas de nosotros, simples mortales.5Nos hiciste apenas un poco inferior a un dios, y nos coronaste de gloria y de honra.6Pusiste a nuestro cuidado todo cuanto has hecho; todo ha sido puesto bajo nuestra autoridad:7las ovejas, bueyes, los animales salvajes,8las aves, los peces y todos los seres del mar.9¡Oh SEÑOR nuestro, la majestad y gloria de tu nombre llenan la tierra!
1To the choirmaster: according to The Gittith.[1] A Psalm of David. O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens. (Ex 34:5; Sal 81:1; Sal 84:1; Sal 113:4; Sal 148:13; Is 12:4)2Out of the mouth of babies and infants, you have established strength because of your foes, to still the enemy and the avenger. (Sal 44:16; Jer 16:19; Mt 11:25; Mt 21:16; 1 Co 1:27)3When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, (Gn 1:16; Ex 8:19; Ex 31:18; Sal 111:2)4what is man that you are mindful of him, and the son of man that you care for him? (Gn 8:1; Gn 21:1; Gn 50:24; Job 7:17; Job 25:6; Sal 65:9; Sal 80:17; Sal 144:3; Heb 2:6)5Yet you have made him a little lower than the heavenly beings[2] and crowned him with glory and honor. (Gn 1:26; Sal 21:5)6You have given him dominion over the works of your hands; you have put all things under his feet, (Gn 1:26; Gn 1:28; Mt 28:18; 1 Co 15:27)7all sheep and oxen, and also the beasts of the field,8the birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea, whatever passes along the paths of the seas.9O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
