Matthew 4:1-10

JuliaSmith(i) 1 Then was Jesus led up by the Spirit into the desert to be tried by the devil. 2 And having fasted forty days and forty nights, afterwards he was hungry. 3 And the tempter having come to him, said, If thou art the Son of God, say that these stones should become bread. 4 And he having answered, said, It has been written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word going forth through the mouth of God. 5 Then the devil takes him into the holy city, and sets him upon the small wing of the temple; 6 And says to him, If thou art the Son of God cast thyself down; for it has been written, That to his messengers he will command concerning thee; and in the hands shall they lift thee up, lest that perhaps thou strike thy foot against a stone. 7 Jesus said to him, Again has it been written, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. 8 Again, the devil takes him into a very high mount, and shows him all the kingdoms of the world, and their glory; 9 And he says to him, All these will I give to thee, if, falling down, thou wouldst worship me. 10 Then says Jesus to him, Retire, Satan; for it has been written, The Lord thy God shalt thou worship, and him alone shalt thou serve.
