1
And Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan, and was led in the Spirit in the wilderness
2
during forty days, being tempted of the devil. And he did eat nothing in those days: and when they were completed, he hungered.
3
And the devil said unto him, if thou art the Son of God, command this stone that it become bread.
4
And Jesus answered unto him,
It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone.
5
And he led him up, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.
6
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.
7
If thou therefore wilt worship before me, it shall all be thine.
8
And Jesus answered and said unto him,
It is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.
