Hebrews 2:14-18
Legacy Standard Bible
14 Therefore, since the children share in [a](A)flesh and blood, (B)He Himself likewise also partook of the same, that (C)through death He might render powerless (D)him who had the [b]power of death, that is, the devil, 15 and might free those who through (E)fear of death were subject to slavery all their lives. 16 For assuredly He does not [c]give help to angels, but He gives help to the seed of Abraham. 17 Therefore, He [d]had (F)to be made like His brothers in all things, so that He might (G)become a merciful and faithful (H)high priest in (I)things pertaining to God, to (J)make propitiation for the sins of the people. 18 For since He Himself was (K)tempted in that which He has suffered, He is able to come to help those who are tempted.

Hebrews 2:14-18
New King James Version
14 Inasmuch then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He (A)Himself likewise shared in the same, (B)that through death He might destroy him who had the power of (C)death, that is, the devil, 15 and release those who (D)through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. 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 (E)to be made like His brethren, that He might be (F)a merciful and faithful High Priest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people. 18 (G)For in that He Himself has suffered, being [c]tempted, He is able to aid those who are tempted.
