4  ^ywhat is man that you are ^zmindful of him,

and ^athe son of man that you ^bcare for him?

5  Yet you have made him a little lower than ^cthe heavenly beings¹

and crowned him with ^dglory and honor.

6  You have given him ^edominion over the works of your hands;

^fyou have put all things under his feet,

7  all sheep and oxen,

and also the beasts of the field,

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

whatever passes along the paths of the seas.

5  Behold, ^fI was brought forth in iniquity,

and in sin did my mother conceive me.

10  ^mCreate in me a ⁿclean heart, O God,

and ^orenew a right¹ spirit within me.
