Psalm 8:5
You made him a little lower than the angels; You crowned him with glory and honor.
Note Or than God or than the heavenly beings; see also LXX.
For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.
For you have made him a little lower than the angels, and crowned him with glory and honor.
Note Hebrew: Elohim. The word Elohim, used here, usually means “God”, but can also mean “gods”, “princes”, or “angels”. The Septuagint reads “angels” here. See also the quote from the Septuagint in Hebrews 2:7.
For thou hast made him but little lower than God, And crownest him with glory and honor.
