Earth Subject to Man

For He did not subject to angels [a](A)the world to come, about which we are speaking. But someone has testified (B)somewhere, saying,

(C)What is man, that You think of him?
Or a son of man, that You are concerned about him?
(D)You have made him [b]for a little while lower than angels;
You have crowned him with glory and honor[c];
(E)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 (F)we do not yet see all things subjected to him.

The Son Made Lower than Angels(A)

For He has not put (B)the world to come, of which we speak, in subjection to angels. But one testified in a certain place, saying:

(C)“What is man that You are mindful of him,
Or the son of man that You take care of him?
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.
(D)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 (E)we do not yet see all things put under him.
