Hebrews 2:6-8
New King James Version
6 But one testified in a certain place, saying:
(A)“What is man that You are mindful of him,
Or the son of man that You take care of him?
7 You have made him [a]a little lower than the angels;
You have crowned him with glory and honor,
[b]And set him over the works of Your hands.
8 (B)You have put all things in subjection under his feet.”
For in that He put all in subjection under him, He left nothing that is not put under him. But now (C)we do not yet see all things put under him.

Hebrews 2:6-8
King James Version
6 But one in a certain place testified, saying, What is man, that thou art mindful of him? or the son of man that thou visitest him?
7 Thou madest him a little lower than the angels; thou crownedst him with glory and honour, and didst set him over the works of thy hands:
8 Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that he put all in subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him.

New American Standard Bible
6 But someone has testified (A)somewhere, saying,
“(B)What is man, that You think of him?
Or a son of man, that You are concerned about him?
7 (C)You have made him [a]for a little while lower than angels;
You have crowned him with glory and honor[b];
8 (D)You have put everything in subjection under his feet.”
For in subjecting all things to him, He left nothing that is not subject to him. But now (E)we do not yet see all things subjected to him.

Hebrews 2:6-8
English Standard Version
6 It has been testified somewhere,
(A)“What is man, that you are mindful of him,
or the son of man, that you care for him?
7 You made him for a little while lower than the angels;
you have crowned him with glory and honor,[a]
8 putting everything in subjection under his feet.”
Now in putting everything in subjection to him, he left nothing outside his control. At present, (B)we do not yet see everything in subjection to him.
