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

Disciples’ Literal New Testament
So The Son Took On Mortal Flesh And Died To Release Us From The Power of Death
14 Therefore, since the children have shared of blood and flesh, He Himself also similarly partook of the same things in order that through death He might do-away-with[a] the one having the power of death (that is, the devil), 15 and release these: all-who by the fear of death were subject-to[b] slavery through all their living. 16 For He surely does not take-hold-of [c] angels, but He takes hold of the seed of Abraham.
He Had To Become Like Us In All Things In Order To Become a Merciful High Priest
17 Hence, He had-to become-like His brothers in all things in order that He might become a merciful and faithful High Priest in the things pertaining to God, so as to make-an-offering-for-satisfaction[d] [of God’s wrath] as to the sins of the people. 18 For having Himself [e] been tempted[f] in what He has suffered, He is able to help the ones being tempted.
