Psalms 8:5
Compare all
3 When I aconsider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers,
The moon and the stars, which You have ordained, 
4 aWhat is man that You are mindful of him,
And the son of man that You bvisit him? 
5 For You have made him a little lower than1 the angels,
And You have crowned him with glory and honor. 
6 aYou have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands;
bYou have put all things under his feet, 
7 All sheep and oxen—
Even the beasts of the field,
8 The birds of the air,
And the fish of the sea
That pass through the paths of the seas.
9 aO Lord, our Lord,
How excellent is Your name in all the earth!
