It is not to the angels that he has put in subjection the world to come, of which we speak. But one in a certain place witnesses, saying, What is man, that you are mindful of him? After you had for a season made him lower than the angels, you crowned him with honour and glory, and have set him above the works of your hands. You have put all things in subjection under his feet.

In that he put all things under him, he left nothing that is not put under him.

Jesus Made Fully Human

It is not to angels that he has subjected the world to come, about which we are speaking. But there is a place where someone(A) has testified:

“What is mankind that you are mindful of them,
    a son of man that you care for him?(B)
You made them a little[a] lower than the angels;
    you crowned them with glory and honor
    and put everything under their feet.”[b][c](C)

In putting everything under them,[d] God left nothing that is not subject to them.[e] Yet at present we do not see everything subject to them.[f]
