Satan Tempts Jesus
1 Then aJesus was led up by bthe Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.
2 And when He had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterward He was hungry.
3 Now when the tempter came to Him, he said, “If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.”
4 But He answered and said, “It is written, a‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’ ”
5 Then the devil took Him up ainto the holy city, set Him on the pinnacle of the temple,
6 and said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down. For it is written:
a‘He shall give His angels charge over you,’ and,
b‘In their hands they shall bear you up,
Lest you dash your foot against a stone.’ ”
a‘He shall give His angels charge over you,’ and,
b‘In their hands they shall bear you up,
Lest you dash your foot against a stone.’ ”
