1 Then Yeshua was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. 2 When he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was hungry afterward. 3 The tempter came and said to him, "If you are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread."

4 But he answered, "It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of God’s mouth.’"

5 Then the devil took him into the holy city. He set him on the pinnacle of the temple, 6 and said to him, "If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, for it is written,

‘He will command his angels concerning you,’ and,

‘On their hands they will bear you up,

so that you don’t dash your foot against a stone.’"

7 Yeshua said to him, "Again, it is written, ‘You shall not test the Lord, your God.’"

8 Again, the devil took him to an exceedingly high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. 9 He said to him, "I will give you all of these things, if you will fall down and worship me."

10 Then Yeshua said to him, "Get behind me, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and you shall serve him only.’"

11 Then the devil left him, and behold, angels came and served him.

1 Depois disto, Jesus foi levado pelo Espírito Santo ao deserto para aí ser tentado pelo Diabo. Durante quarenta dias e quarenta noites nada comeu; por fim sentiu fome.

3 Então o Tentador instigou-o a arranjar alimento, dizendo: Se tu és o Filho de Deus, transforma estas pedras em pão.

5 Depois Satanás levou-o a Jerusalém, para o telhado do templo:

7 Jesus retorquiu-lhe: Mas as Escrituras também dizem: 'Não devem provocar o Senhor vosso Deus.

8 Por fim, Satanás levou-o a um sítio muito alto, e mostrou-lhe as terras do mundo e toda a sua riqueza:k

9 Tudo isto te darei se te ajoelhares e me adorares.

10 Vai-te, Satanás! As Escrituras mandam: 'Adorarás o Senhor teu Deus. Só a ele prestarás culto.

11 Então Satanás foi-se embora, e os anjos vieram e serviram Jesus.
