8 Again, the devil took Him up on an exceedingly high mountain, and ^ashowed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory.

9 And he said to Him, “All these things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me.”

10 Then Jesus said to him,¹ “Away with you, Satan! For it is written, ^a‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only you shall serve.’ ”

11 Then the devil ^aleft Him, and behold, ^bangels came and ministered to Him.
