Hebrews 2:11-18 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

11. For both he that sanctifieth and they that are sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,

12. saying, I will declare thy name unto my brethren, In the midst of the congregation will I sing thy praise.

13. And again, I will put my trust in him. And again, Behold, I and the children which God hath given me.

14. Since then the children are sharers in flesh and blood, he also himself in like manner partook of the same; that through death he might bring to nought him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;

15. and might deliver all them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.

16. For verily not of angels doth he take hold, but he taketh hold of the seed of Abraham.

17. Wherefore it behoved him in all things to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.

18. For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted, he is able to succour them that are tempted.
