The Temptation Of Jesus

⁴ But he answering said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word which goes out through God's mouth. ⁵ Then the devil takes him to the holy city, and sets him upon the edge of the temple, ⁶ and says to him, If thou be Son of God cast thyself down; for it is written, He shall give charge to his angels concerning thee, and on their hands shall they bear thee, lest in anywise thou strike thy foot against a stone.
