The Temptation of Jesus

1 ¹Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness ²to be tempted by the devil. 2 And after He had ³fasted forty days and forty nights, He ^athen became hungry. 3 And ⁴the tempter came and said to Him, "If You are the ⁵Son of God, command that these stones become bread." 4 But He answered and said, "It is written, '⁶MAN SHALL NOT LIVE ON BREAD ALONE, BUT ON EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDS OUT OF THE MOUTH OF GOD.' " 5 Then the devil took Him into ⁷the holy city and had Him stand 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, '⁸HE WILL COMMAND HIS ANGELS CONCERNING YOU'; and 'ON their HANDS THEY WILL BEAR YOU UP, SO THAT YOU WILL NOT STRIKE YOUR FOOT AGAINST A STONE.' "
