Hebrews 2:5-8
21st Century King James Version
5 For it was not unto angels that He put in subjection the world to come, of which we speak.
6 But one at 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 crowned him with glory and honor and set him over the works of Thy hands.
8 Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet.” For in putting all in subjection under him, He left nothing that is not put under him. But now as yet we see not all things put under him.

Hebrews 2:5-8
American Standard Version
5 For not unto angels did he subject [a]the world to come, whereof we speak. 6 But one hath somewhere testified, saying,
[b]What is man, that thou art mindful of him?
Or the son of man, that thou visitest him?
7 Thou madest him [c]a little lower than the angels;
Thou crownedst him with glory and honor,
[d]And didst set him over the works of thy hands:
8 Thou didst put all things in subjection under his feet.
For in that he subjected all things unto him, he left nothing that is not subject to him. But now we see not yet all things subjected to him.
