*
THEN Jesus was led by the Spirit up into the wild country to be tempted by the Devil .
*
After he had fasted forty days and forty nights he was hungry .
*
Then the tempter came and said to him , "
If you are the Son of God ,
tell these stones to turn into loaves of bread ."
*
But he answered ,
*
Then the Devil took him with him to the holy city and placed him on the top of the temple
*
and said to him , "
If you are the Son of God ,
throw yourself down ;
for it is written , '
To his angels he will give charge of you ,
and on their hands they will bear you lest you strike your foot against a stone .' "
*
Jesus said to him ,
*
Again the Devil took him with him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory ,
*
and said to him , "
All these things I will give you if you will fall down and do homage to me ."
*
Jesus said to him ,
*
Then the Devil left him ,
and angels came and waited upon him .
