1 Corinthians 15:27
Good News Translation
For the scripture says, "God put all things under his feet." It is clear, of course, that the words "all things" do not include God himself, who puts all things under Christ.

New Revised Standard Version
For “God has put all things in subjection under his feet.” But when it says, “All things are put in subjection,” it is plain that this does not include the one who put all things in subjection under him.

Contemporary English Version
When the Scriptures say he will put everything under his power, they don't include God. It was God who put everything under the power of Christ.

New American Bible
for “he subjected everything under his feet.” But when it says that everything has been subjected, it is clear that it excludes the one who subjected everything to him.

Douay-Rheims Bible
All things are put under him; undoubtedly, he is excepted, who put all things under him.
