1The Holy Spirit led Jesus into the desert, so that the devil could test him. for forty days and nights, he was very hungry.
3Then the devil came to him and said, “If you are God's Son, tell these stones to turn into bread.”
4Jesus answered, “The Scriptures say:
‘No one can live only on food.
People need every word
that God has spoken.’ ”
5Next, the devil took Jesus to the holy city and made him stand on the highest part of the temple.
6The devil said, “If you are God's Son, jump off. The Scriptures say:
‘God will give his angels
orders about you.
They will catch you
in their arms,
and you won't hurt
your feet on the stones.’ ”
7Jesus answered, “The Scriptures also say, ‘Don't try to test the Lord your God!’ ”
8Finally, the devil took Jesus up on a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms on earth and their power.
9The devil said to him, “I will give all this to you, if you will bow down and worship me.”
10Jesus answered, “Go away Satan! The Scriptures say:
‘Worship the Lord your God
and serve only him.’ ”
11Then the devil left Jesus, and angels came to help him.
