Then, however, he pays tribute to the place that God has given man:

Yet thou hast made him but a little lower than God,

And crownest him with glory and honor,

Thou causest him to rule over the works of thy hands;

Everything hast thou placed beneath his feet,

Sheep and oxen all of them,

And also the beasts of the field,

The birds of the heavens and the fish of the sea,

That which passeth on the paths of the sea.
