Hebrews 2:5-8
New American Standard Bible
Earth Subject to Man
5 For He did not subject to angels [a](A)the world to come, about which we are speaking. 6 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?
7 (D)You have made him [b]for a little while lower than angels;
You have crowned him with glory and honor[c];
8 (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.

New Living Translation
Jesus, the Man
5 And furthermore, it is not angels who will control the future world we are talking about. 6 For in one place the Scriptures say,
“What are mere mortals that you should think about them,
or a son of man[a] that you should care for him?
7 Yet for a little while you made them a little lower than the angels
and crowned them with glory and honor.[b]
8 You gave them authority over all things.”[c]
Now when it says “all things,” it means nothing is left out. But we have not yet seen all things put under their authority.
