4 Of what importance is the human race, that you should notice them?Of what importance is mankind, that you should pay attention to them,
5 and make them a little less than the heavenly beings?You grant mankind honor and majesty;
6 you appoint them to rule over your creation;you have placed everything under their authority,
7 including all the sheep and cattle,as well as the wild animals,
8 the birds in the sky, the fish in the seaand everything that moves through the currents of the seas.
9 O Lord, our Lord,how magnificent is your reputation throughout the earth!
