1 Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.
2 After fasting for forty days and forty nights, he was hungry.
3 The tempter came to him and said, ‘If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become bread.’
4 Jesus answered, ‘It is written: “Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.”’
5 Then the devil took him to the holy city and set him on the highest point of the temple.
6 ‘If you are the Son of God,’ he said, ‘throw yourself down. For it is written:“ He will command his angels concerning you,and they will lift you up in their hands,so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.”’
