Matthew 4:1-10

Murdock(i) 1 Then was Jesus led by the Holy Spirit into the desert, to be tempted by the Calumniator 2 And he fasted forty days and forty nights, and afterward he hungered. 3 And the Tempter came, and said to him: If thou art the Son of God, command these stones to become bread. 4 But he replied, and said: It is written, that not by bread only, doth man live; but by every word proceeding from the mouth of God. 5 Then the Calumniator took him to the holy city, and set him on a pinnacle of the temple, 6 and said to him: If thou art the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, that he will give his angels charge of thee, and in their hands will they sustain thee, lest thou strike thy foot against a stone. 7 Jesus said to him: It is moreover written, that thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. 8 Again the Calumniator took him to a mountain that was very high, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world, and their glory; 9 and said to him: All these will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. 10 Then Jesus said to him: Begone, Satan; for it is written, that thou shalt worship the Lord, thy God; and him only shalt thou serve.
