5 For you have made him only a little lower than the gods, crowning him with glory and honour.

6 You have made him ruler over the works of your hands; you have put all things under his feet;

8 The birds of the air and the fish of the sea, and whatever goes through the deep waters of the seas.

9 O Lord, our Lord, how noble is your name in all the earth!
