The Temptation of Jesus

1 Then Jesus was led up into the wilderness by the Spirit to be tempted by the devil,
2 and [after he] had fasted forty days and forty nights, then he was hungry.
3 And the tempter approached [and] said to him, "If you are the Son of God, order that these stones become bread."
4 But he answered [and] said, "It is written, 'Man will not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes out of the mouth of God."
5 Then the devil took him to the holy city and placed him on the highest point of the temple
6 and said to him, "If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down! For it is written, 'He will command his angels concerning you,' and 'On [their] hands they will lift you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone.'"
