1 随后， 耶稣被圣灵带到旷野， 受魔鬼的试探。

2 耶稣禁食了四十昼夜， 就饿了，

3 试探者前来对他说： "你若是 神的儿子， 就吩咐这些石头变成食物吧！ "

4 耶稣回答： "经上记着： ‘人活着， 不是单靠食物， 更要靠 神口里所出的一切话。’"

5 随后， 魔鬼带耶稣进了圣城， 使他站在殿顶上，

6 对他说： "你若是 神的儿子， 就跳下去吧！ 因为经上记着： ‘ 神为了你， 会吩咐自己的使者用手托住你， 免得你的脚碰到石头。’"

7 耶稣对他说： "经上又记着： ‘不可试探主你的 神。’"

8 最后， 魔鬼带耶稣上了一座极高的山， 把世界各国和各国的荣华都指给他看。

9 并且对他说： "你只要跪下来拜我， 我就把这一切都给你。"

10 但耶稣说： "撒但， 走开！ 经上记着： ‘当拜主你的 神， 单要事奉他。’"

11 于是魔鬼离开了耶稣， 有天使前来服事他。

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 afterward hungered. 3 And the tempter came and said unto him, If thou art the Son of God, command that these stones become 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 into the holy city; and he set him on the pinnacle of the temple, 6 and saith unto him, If thou art the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written,

He shall give his angels charge concerning thee:

and,

On their hands they shall bear thee up,

Lest haply thou dash thy foot against a stone.

7 Jesus said unto him, Again it is written, Thou shalt not make trial of the Lord thy God. 8 Again, the devil taketh him unto an exceeding high mountain, and showeth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; 9 and he said 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.
