To change the version of Java to java 8 to run Minecraft 1.16.5 and below:-

First, run this command: sudo update-alternatives --config java It will give you bunch of output something like this

There are 2 choices for the alternative java (providing /usr/bin/java).
  Selection    Path                                            Priority   Status------------------------------------------------------------
  0            /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64/bin/java      1111      auto mode* 
  1            /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64/bin/java 1111      manual mode
  2            /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java   1081      manual mode
Press <enter> to keep the current choice[*], or type selection number:

Now copy the /usr/ path of Java 8.

Then, do nano startJavaServer then it will open up a file like this file.

Change it to like this:

#!/bin/bash
export MAIN_DIR=$PWD
export JAVA=$MAIN_DIR/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java
cd server

mem=$(grep MemTotal /proc/meminfo | sed -e 's/MemTotal:[ ]*//' | sed -e 's/ kB//') # some new stuff 

mem=$(($mem/1024/1024))

#uncomment this below line only if the server you are running is 1.17+ (if it is uncommented by default keep it as it is).
#$JAVA -Xmx${mem}G -Xms${mem}G -jar server.jar nogui
# for 1.16 or lower uncomment this line
java -Xmx${mem}G -Xms${mem}G -jar server.jar nogui

Hope this helps!
