4:1 Then Jesus was led by the Spiritinto the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. 4:2 And he fasted forty days and forty nights and afterwards he was hungry. | 1 | 1:12 The Spirit immediately drove him out into the wilderness. 1:13 and he was in the wilderness forty days, tempted by Satan; and he was with the wild beasts; | 4:1 And Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan,and was led by the Spirit 4:2 for forty days in the wilderness, temptedby the devil.And he ate nothing in those days; and when they were ended, he was hungry. |
4:3 And the tempter came and saidto him, "If you are the Son of God, command these stones to become loaves of bread." 4:4 But he answered, "It is written, 'Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.'" | 2 | 4:3 The devil saidto him, "If you are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread." 4:4 And Jesus answered him, "It is written, 'Man shall not live by bread alone.'" | |
4:5 Then the devil took him to the holy city,
and set himon the pinnacle of the temple, 4:6 andsaid to him, "If you are
the Son of God, throw yourself down;
for it is written, 'He will give his
angels charge of you,'and 'On their hands they will bear you up, lest you
strike your foot against a stone.'"

4:8 Again, the devil took him to a very high
mountain, and showedhim all the kingdoms of the world and the glory of
them; 4:9 and he said to him, "All these I will give you if you will fall
down and worship me."
4:10 Then Jesus said to him "Begone, Satan! for it is written, 'You shall worship the Lord your God, and him only shall you serve.'" |
4 | 4:5 And the devil took him up, and showedhim
all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. 4:6 and said to him,
"To you I will give all this authority and their glory; for it has been
delivered to me, and I give it to whom I will. 4:7 If you, then, will worship
me, it shall all be yours."
4:8 And Jesus answered him, "It is written, 'You shall worship the Lord you God, and him only shall you serve.'" |

himon the pinnacle of the temple,
and said to him, "If you are the Son
of God, throw yourself down from here; 4:10 for it is written, 'He will
give his angels charge of you, to guard you,' 4:11 and 'On their hands
they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone.'"
