Evil temptation is sowed by Satan (flesh, ourselves, devil, etc). Sin is when we agree to that evil temptation.

"Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God”;
for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone.
But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed." - James 1:13-14

Temptation is ten letters long, and sin is three letters long.

Temptation is every day, even in the house of God.

Temptation can be overcome in the Way described in Scripture,  in Christ Jesus as the Father permits and accomplishes .

Sin can be washed away by the blood of Jesus,  temptation doesn't go away,  but resist the devil, and he will flee.

Sin is punishable by death.  It also has consequences daily on earth for almost everyone.

Temptation is not necessarily punishable by death, though if someone is tempting someone else, it is sin and is punishable by death then - perhaps even a far greater judgment than other sin. (like written about if causing a little child to stumble)

temptation is that aspect of "sin" and "death" by which they try to seduce or mislead someone into sinning - usually they(sin and death) act together, while sin as a transgression against the Law of the true God is an act of causing evil to the neighbor/townsman/cohabitant (either spiritually or physically, or in any other way you can think of - for example if some people worship idols, they can thus easily turn out to be some of those who bring stumbling blocks, twists, temptations/seductions, defilements and corruptions to the world and for humankind, because this is possible, first of all, through spiritual lawlessness e.g. in the form of (ostensibly) sacred religion)

Blessings
