Psalm 8:5-6
New International Version - UK
5 You have made them[a] a little lower than the angels[b]
and crowned them[c] with glory and honour.
6 You made them rulers over the works of your hands;
you put everything under their[d] feet:
Hebrews 2:6-9
New International Version - UK
6 But there is a place where someone has testified:
‘What is mankind that you are mindful of them,
a son of man that you care for him?
7 You made them a little[a] lower than the angels;
you crowned them with glory and honour
8 and put everything under their feet.’[b][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] 9 But we do see Jesus, who was made lower than the angels for a little while, now crowned with glory and honour because he suffered death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.
