Scriptures

New Living Translation (NLT)

Luke 4
² where he was tempted by the devil for forty days. Jesus ate nothing all that time and became very hungry.
³ Then the devil said to him, “If you are the Son of God, tell this stone to become a loaf of bread.”
⁴ But Jesus told him, “No! The Scriptures say, ‘People do not live by bread alone.’”
⁵ Then the devil took him up and revealed to him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.
⁶ “I will give you the glory of these kingdoms and authority over them,” the devil said, “because they are mine to give to anyone I please.
⁷ I will give it all to you if you will worship me.”
⁸ Jesus replied, “The Scriptures say, ‘You must worship the LORD your God and serve only him.’”
⁹ Then the devil took him to Jerusalem, to the highest point of the Temple, and said, “If you are the Son of God, jump off!
¹⁰ For the Scriptures say, ‘He will order his angels to protect and guard you.
¹¹ And they will hold you up with their hands so you won’t even hurt your foot on a stone.’”
¹² Jesus responded, “The Scriptures also say, ‘You must not test the LORD your God.’”
