Matthew 4:1-11

Living_Oracles(i) 1 Then was Jesus conducted by the Spirit into the wilderness, to be tempted by the devil. 2 And after fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry. 3 Then the tempter accosting him, said, If thou be God's Son, command that these stones become loaves. 4 Jesus answering, said, It is written, "Man lives not by bread only, but by everything which God is pleased to appoint." 5 Then the devil conveyed him into the holy city, and having placed him on the battlement of the temple, 6 said to him, If thou be God's Son, throw thyself down; for it is written, "He will give his angels the charge of thee: they shall uphold thee in their arms, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone." 7 Jesus again answered, It is written, "Thou shalt not put the Lord thy God to the proof." 8 Again the devil took him up a very high mountain, whence he showed him all the kingdoms of the world in their glory, 9 and said to him, All these will I give thee, if thou wilt prostrate thyself, and worship me. 10 Jesus answered, Satan, begone; for it is written, "Thou shalt worship the Lord they God, and shall serve him only." 11 Then the devil leaving him, angels came and ministered to him.
