Then straightway was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to
be tempted of the devil, and he was with the wild beasts, and did eat
nothing in those days. And when he had fasted forty days and forty
nights, he afterward hungered.
And the tempter came and said unto him, "If thou art the Son of God,
command that these stones become bread."
But he answered and said, "It is written, 'Man shall not live by bread
alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.'"
Then the devil taketh him into the holy city; and he set him on the
pinnacle of the temple, and saith unto him, "If thou art the Son of
God, cast thyself down: for it is written,
"'He shall give his angels charge concerning thee, to guard
thee.'
and,
"'On their hands they shall bear thee up,
Lest haply thou dash thy foot against a stone.'"
Jesus said unto him, "Again it is written, 'Thou shalt not make trial
of the Lord thy God.'"
Again, the devil taketh him unto an exceeding high mountain, and
showeth him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time, and the
glory of them.
And the devil said unto him, "To thee will I give all this authority,
and the glory of them: for it hath been delivered unto me; and to
whomsoever I will I give it. If thou therefore wilt worship before me,
it shall all be thine."
Then saith Jesus unto him, "Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written.
'Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.'"
And when the devil had completed every temptation, he departed from
him for a season; and behold, angels came and ministered unto him.
