Psalm 8:4-9
New American Standard Bible
4 (A)What is man that You think of him,
And a son of man that You are concerned about him?
5 Yet You have made him a (B)little lower than [a]God,
And (C)You crown him with (D)glory and majesty!
6 You have him (E)rule over the works of Your hands;
You have (F)put everything under his feet,
7 All sheep and oxen,
And also the animals of the field,
8 The birds of the sky, and the fish of the sea,
Whatever passes through the paths of the seas.
9 (G)Lord, our Lord,
How majestic is Your name in all the earth!

King James Version
4 What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?
5 For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.
6 Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet:
7 All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field;
8 The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas.
9 O Lord our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!
