5 Bible Verses about Man's Dominion

Then God said: Let us make man in our image, in our likeness. Let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth and over all the creatures that move along the ground.

All the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air will be filled with fear and dread of you. Every creature that moves along the ground and all the fish of the sea are placed under your control.

You made him rule what your hands created. You have put everything under his control:

You put all things in subjection under his feet. You subjected all things to him and left nothing that is not subject to him. Now we do not see yet all things in subjection to him.

Every kind of beast and bird, of creeping things and things in the sea, is tamed, and has been tamed by mankind.
