New Testament

Hebrews 2:9-18 Modern English Version (MEV)

9. But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels to suffer death, crowned with glory and honor, so that He, by the grace of God, should experience death for everyone.

10. For it was fitting for Him, for whom and by whom all things exist, in bringing many sons to glory, to make the Author of their salvation perfect through suffering.

11. For both He who sanctifies and those who are sanctified are all of One. For this reason He is not ashamed to call them brothers,

12. saying: “I will declare Your name to My brothers;in the midst of the congregation I will sing praise to You.”

13. And again: “I will put My trust in Him.”And again: “Here am I and the children whom God has given Me.”

14. So then, as the children share in flesh and blood, He likewise took part in these, so that through death He might destroy him who has the power of death, that is, the devil,

15. and deliver those who through fear of death were throughout their lives subject to bondage.

16. For surely He does not help the angels, but He helps the seed of Abraham.

17. Therefore, in all things it was necessary for Him to be made like His brothers, so that He might be a merciful and faithful High Priest in the things pertaining to God, to make atonement for the sins of the people.

18. For since He Himself suffered while being tempted, He is able to help those who are being tempted.
