Matthew:4:1-11
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Then was Jesus led up of the spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil .
*
And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights ,
he was afterward an hungered .
*
And when the tempter came to him ,
he said ,
If you be the Son of God ,
command that these stones be made bread .
*
But he answered and said ,
It is written ,
Man shall not live by bread alone ,
but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God .
*
Then the devil takes him up into the holy city ,
and sets him on a pinnacle of the temple ,
*
And said to him ,
If you be the Son of God ,
cast yourself down :
for it is written ,
He shall give his angels charge concerning you :
and in their hands they shall bear you up ,
lest at any time you dash your foot against a stone .
*
Jesus said to him ,
It is written again ,
You shall not tempt the Lord your God .
*
Again ,
the devil takes him up into an exceeding high mountain ,
and shows him all the kingdoms of the world ,
and the glory of them ;
*
And said to him ,
All these things will I give you ,
if you will fall down and worship me .
*
Then said Jesus to him ,
Get you hence ,
Satan :
for it is written ,
You shall worship the Lord your God ,
and him only shall you serve .
*
Then the devil leaves him ,
and ,
behold ,
angels came and ministered to him .
