Hebrews 2:16-18
New King James Version
16 For indeed He does not [a]give aid to angels, but He does [b]give aid to the seed of Abraham. 17 Therefore, in all things He had (A)to be made like His brethren, that He might be (B)a merciful and faithful High Priest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people. 18 (C)For in that He Himself has suffered, being [c]tempted, He is able to aid those who are tempted.

New International Version
16 For surely it is not angels he helps, but Abraham’s descendants.(A) 17 For this reason he had to be made like them,[a](B) fully human in every way, in order that he might become a merciful(C) and faithful high priest(D) in service to God,(E) and that he might make atonement for the sins of the people.(F) 18 Because he himself suffered when he was tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted.(G)
