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.
