But one at a certain place testified, saying, “What is man, that Thou art mindful of him? Or the son of man, that Thou visitest him?

But someone somewhere has testified: What is man that you remember him, or the son of man that you care for him?
Instead, someone declared somewhere, What is humanity that you think about them? Or what are the human beings that you care about them?
And there is a place where someone has given this solemn testimony: “What is mere man, that you concern yourself with him? or the son of man, that you watch over him with such care?
Somewhere in the Scriptures someone says to God, “What makes you care about us humans? Why are you concerned for weaklings such as we?

But one solemnly-testified somewhere saying, “What is man that You remember him, or the son of man that You look-after him?
But one in a certain place hath testified, saying: What is man, that thou art mindful of him: or the son of man, that thou visitest him?
It is written some place in the Scriptures, “Why are people so important to you? Why do you even think about them? Why do you care about the son of man? Is he so important?
No! Instead, someone wrote this somewhere in the Bible: ‘Lord God, why do you even think about people? You take care of men and women, even though they seem to be so small.
But there is a place where someone has testified: What is man that you remember him, or the Son of Man that you look after him?
It has been testified somewhere, “What is man, that you are mindful of him, or the son of man, that you care for him?

Instead, as it is said somewhere in the Scriptures: “What are human beings, O God, that you should think of them; mere human beings, that you should care for them?
But one has somewhere testified: What is man that You remember him, or the son of man that You care for him?
It is written somewhere in the Scriptures, “Why is man important to you? Why do you take care of the son of man?
Instead, someone has declared somewhere, “What is man that you should remember him, or the son of man that you should care for him?
But someone has said: ‘What is man that you are mindful of him, or the son of man that you take care of him? You made him a little lower than the angels; you crowned him with glory and honour, and set him over the works of your hands. You have put all things in subjection under his feet’.

But one has testified somewhere, saying, “What is man, that You remember him? Or the son of man, that You are concerned about him?
But someone testified somewhere, saying, “What is man, that you remember him, or the son of man, that you care for him?
No, for in the book of Psalms David says to God, “What is mere man that you are so concerned about him? And who is this Son of Man you honor so highly?
God didn’t put angels in charge of this business of salvation that we’re dealing with here. It says in Scripture, What is man and woman that you bother with them; why take a second look their way? You made them not quite as high as angels, bright with Eden’s dawn light; Then you put them in charge of your entire handcrafted world. When God put them in charge of everything, nothing was excluded. But we don’t see it yet, don’t see everything under human jurisdiction. What we do see is Jesus, made “not quite as high as angels,” and then, through the experience of death, crowned so much higher than any angel, with a glory “bright with Eden’s dawn light.” In that death, by God’s grace, he fully experienced death in every person’s place.
But someone in a certain place testified, saying: “What is man that You are mindful of him, or the son of man that You care for him?
But someone has testified somewhere, “What is man that you take thought for him, or the son of man, that you care for him?

But one has testified somewhere, saying, “What is man, that You remember him? Or the son of man, that You are concerned about him?
But someone has offered this testimony somewhere: “What is man that you are mindful of him, or the son of man that you care for him?
It is written in the Scriptures, “Why are people even important to you? Why do you take care of human beings?
Instead someone testified somewhere: “What is man that you think of him or the son of man that you care for him?
There is a place where someone has spoken about this. He said, “What are human beings that you think about them? What is a son of man that you take care of him?
But there is a place where someone has testified: “What is mankind that you are mindful of them, a son of man that you care for him?
But there is a place where someone has testified: ‘What is mankind that you are mindful of them, a son of man that you care for him?
But one testified in a certain place, saying: “What is man that You are mindful of him, Or the son of man that You take care of him?
Instead, the Holy Writings say, “What is man that You think of him and the son of man that You should remember him?”
For in one place the Scriptures say, “What are mere mortals that you should think about them, or a son of man that you should care for him?
But one in a certain place witnesses, saying, What is man, that you are mindful of him?
But someone has testified somewhere, ‘What are human beings that you are mindful of them, or mortals, that you care for them?

But one in a certain place witnessed, saying, “What is man that You should be mindful of him; or the son of man that You would consider him?
It has been testified somewhere, “What is man that thou art mindful of him, or the son of man, that thou carest for him?
It has been testified somewhere, “What is man that thou art mindful of him, or the son of man, that thou carest for him?
But somewhere someone has testified, saying, “What is man, that You are mindful of him, or the son of man, that You care for him?
I have read something somewhere: I can’t help but wonder why You care about mortals or choose to love the son of man.
But one has somewhere testified, saying, “What is man, that you think of him? Or the son of man, that you care for him?
In one place the holy writings say, `What is man and why do you think about him? What is the Son of a Man and why do you care about him?
But some man witnessed in a place, and said [Soothly some man witnessed in some place, saying], What thing is man, that thou art mindful of him, or man's son, for thou visitest him?
and one in a certain place did testify fully, saying, `What is man, that Thou art mindful of him, or a son of man, that Thou dost look after him?
