Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. He fasted for forty days and forty nights, and afterwards he was famished. The tempter came and said to him, \u2018If you are the Son of God, command these stones to become loaves of bread.\u2019 But he answered, \u2018It is written,
\n\u201cOne does not live by bread alone,
\nbut by every word that comes from the mouth of God.\u201d \u2019<\/p>\n
Then the devil took him to the holy city and placed him on the pinnacle of the temple, saying to him, \u2018If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down; for it is written,
\n\u201cHe will command his angels concerning you\u201d,
\nand \u201cOn their hands they will bear you up,
\nso that you will not dash your foot against a stone.\u201d \u2019
\nJesus said to him, \u2018Again it is written, \u201cDo not put the Lord your God to the test.\u201d \u2019<\/p>\n
Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendour; and he said to him, \u2018All these I will give you, if you will fall down and worship me.\u2019 Jesus said to him, \u2018Away with you, Satan! for it is written,
\n\u201cWorship the Lord your God,
\nand serve only him.\u201d \u2019
\nThen the devil left him, and suddenly angels came and waited on him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
