New Testament

Hebrews 2:10-16 God's Word Translation (GW)

10. God is the one for whom and through whom everything exists. Therefore, while God was bringing many sons and daughters to glory, it was the right time to bring Jesus, the source of their salvation, to the end of his work through suffering.

11. Jesus, who makes people holy, and all those who are made holy have the same Father. That is why Jesus isn’t ashamed to call them brothers and sisters.

12. He says,“I will tell my people about your name.I will praise you within the congregation.”

13. In addition, Jesus says,“I will trust him.”And Jesus says,“I am here with the sons and daughters God has given me.”

14. Since all of these sons and daughters have flesh and blood, Jesus took on flesh and blood to be like them. He did this so that by dying he would destroy the one who had power over death (that is, the devil).

15. In this way he would free those who were slaves all their lives because they were afraid of dying.

16. So Jesus helps Abraham’s descendants rather than helping angels.
