Hebrews 2:15-17

New Catholic Bible

¹⁵ and set free those who throughout their lives had been held in slavery by the fear of death.

¹⁶ For clearly he did not come to help angels but rather he came to help the descendants of Abraham. ¹⁷ Therefore, he had to be made like his brethren in every way in order that he might become a compassionate and faithful high priest before God and expiate the sins of the people.
