Jesus Is Tested in the Wilderness
4 Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted [ a ] by the devil . 2 After fasting forty days and forty nights , he was hungry . 3 The tempter came to him and said , “ If you are the Son of God , tell these stones to become bread .”
4
Jesus answered , “ It is written : ‘ Man shall not live on bread alone , but on every word that comes from the mouth of God .’ [ b ] ”
5
Then the devil took him to the holy city and had him stand on the highest point of the temple . 6 “ If you are the Son of God ,” he said , “ throw yourself down . For it is written :
“‘ He will command his angels concerning you and they will lift you up in their hands , so that you will not strike your foot against a stone .’ [ c ] ”
7
Jesus answered him , “ It is also written : ‘ Do not put the Lord your God to the test .’ [ d ] ”
8
Again , the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendour . 9 “ All this I will give you ,” he said , “ if you will bow down and worship me .”
10
Jesus said to him , “ Away from me , Satan ! For it is written : ‘ Worship the Lord your God , and serve him only .’ [ e ] ”
11
Then the devil left him , and angels came and attended him .
