5. Then the devil took him to the holy city and set him on the temple pinnacle.
6. And he says to him, “If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, for it is written that he will command his angels concerning you, and on their hands they will carry you, lest you ever strike your foot against a stone.”
7. Jesus said to him, "Again it is written: 'You shall not tempt the Lord your God.'"
8. Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory.
