For it is written: “He will command his angels concerning you, and they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.” [c] ’c 7 Jesus answered him, ‘It is also written: “Do not put the Lord your God to the test.” [d] ’ 8 Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendour. 9 ‘All this I will give you,’ he said, ‘if you will bow down and worship me.’d 10 Jesus said to him, ‘Away from me, Satan!
