| 4 | What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? | (8-5) Je dis: Qu'est-ce que l'homme, que tu te souviennes de lui? et le fils de l'homme, que tu le visites? | What is man, that thou art mindful of him? And the son of man, that thou visitest him? |
| 5 | For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour. | (8-6) Et tu l'as fait un peu inférieur aux messagers; tu l'as couronné de gloire et d'honneur. | For thou hast made him but little lower than God, And crownest him with glory and honor. |
| 6 | Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet: | (8-7) Tu lui as donné l'empire sur les ouvrages de tes mains; tu as mis toutes choses sous ses pieds; | Thou makest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; Thou hast put all things under his feet: |
| 7 | All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field; | (8-8) Les brebis et les bœufs, tous ensemble, et même les bêtes des champs; | All sheep and oxen, Yea, and the beasts of the field, |
