5 Then the devil took Him up (A)into the holy city, set Him on the pinnacle of the temple, 6 and said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down. For it is written:
(B)‘He shall give His angels charge over you,’
and,
(C)‘In their hands they shall bear you up,
Lest you dash your foot against a stone.’ ”
7 Jesus said to him, “It is written again, (D)‘You shall not [a]tempt the Lord your God.’ ”
