Luke 4:1-8 ▼

1 Filled with the holy Spirit, Jesus returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the desert

2 for forty days, to be tempted by the devil. He ate nothing during those days, and when they were over he was hungry.

3 The devil said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread.”

4 Jesus answered him, “It is written, ‘One does not live by bread alone.’”

5 Then he took him up and showed him all the kingdoms of the world in a single instant.

6 The devil said to him, “I shall give to you all this power and their glory; for it has been handed over to me, and I may give it to whomever I wish.

7 All this will be yours, if you worship me.”

8 Jesus said to him in reply, “It is written: ‘You shall worship the Lord, your God, and him alone shall you serve.’”
