And Jesus being full of the Holy Spirit, returned from Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,
2
Being forty days tempted by the devil. And in those days he ate nothing; and when they were ended, he was afterward hungry.
3
And the devil said to him, If thou art the Son of God, command this stone that it be made bread.
4
And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.
5
And the devil taking him up upon a high mountain, showed to him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.
6
And the devil said to him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered to me, and to whomsoever I will, I give it.
7
If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine.
8
And Jesus answered and said to him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.
9
And he brought him to Jerusalem, and set him on a pinnacle of the temple, and said to him, If thou art the son of God, cast thyself down from hence.
