Luke 4:9-13 Amplified Bible (AMP)

9. Then he took Him to Jerusalem and set Him on a gable of the temple, and said to Him, If You are the Son of God, cast Yourself down from here;

10. For it is written, He will give His angels charge over you to guard and watch over you closely and carefully;

11. And on their hands they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone. [Ps. 91:11, 12.]

12. And Jesus replied to him, [The Scripture] says, You shall not tempt (try, test exceedingly) the Lord your God. [Deut. 6:16.]

13. And when the devil had ended every [the complete cycle of] temptation, he [temporarily] left Him [that is, stood off from Him] until another more opportune and favorable time.
