Matthew 4:1-11

Then Jesus was led by the [Holy] Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. ^2 ^After He had gone without food for forty days and forty nights, He became hungry. ^3 ^And the tempter came and said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.” ^4 ^But Jesus replied, “It is written and forever remains written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes out of the mouth of God.’”

^5 ^Then the devil took Him into the holy city [Jerusalem] and placed Him on the pinnacle (highest point) of the temple. ^6 ^And he said [mockingly] to Him, “If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down; for it is written,

‘He will command His angels concerning You [to serve, care for, protect and watch over You]’;

and

‘They will lift you up on their hands,

So that You will not strike Your foot against a stone.’”

^7 ^Jesus said to him, “On the other hand, it is written and forever remains written, ‘You shall not test the Lord your God.’”

^8 ^Again, the devil took Him up on a very high mountain and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and the glory [splendor, magnificence, and excellence] of them; ^9 ^and he said to Him, “All these things I will give You, if You fall down and worship me.” ^10 ^Then Jesus said to him, “Go away, Satan! For it is written and forever remains written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and serve Him only.’” ^11 ^Then the devil left Him; and angels came and ministered to Him [bringing Him food and serving Him].

Matthew 4: 1. Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil. 2. And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred. 3. And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. 4. But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. 5. Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple, 6. And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone. 7. Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. 8. Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; 9. And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. 10. Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. 11. Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him.
