Psalm 8:4-8 Devotionals, Articles & Bible Study

⁴what is man that You are mindful of him,

or the son of man that You care for him?

⁵You made him a little lower than the angels;

You crowned him with glory and honor.

⁶You made him ruler of the works of Your hands;

You have placed everything under his feet:

⁷all sheep and oxen,

and even the beasts of the field,

⁸the birds of the air and the fish of the sea,

all that swim the paths of the seas.

— Psalm 8:4-8
