Luke 4:1-8 ▼

1 Iesus, being full of the holy ghost, returned from Iordane, & was ledde by the spirite into wyldernesse,

2 And was fourtie dayes tempted of the deuyll, and in those dayes dyd he eate nothyng: And when they were ended, he afterwarde hungred.

3 And the deuyll sayde vnto hym: If thou be the sonne of God, commaunde this stone that it be made bread.

4 And Iesus aunswered hym, saying: It is written, that man shall not lyue by bread only, but by euery word of god.

5 And the deuyll toke hym into an hye mountayne, & shewed hym all the kingdomes of ye worlde in a moment of time.

6 And the deuyl saide vnto hym: all this power wyll I geue thee euerywhyt, & the glory of them, for that is deliuered vnto me, and to whomsoeuer I wyll, I geue it.

7 If thou therfore wilt fall downe before me, & worship me, they shalbe all thine.

8 Iesus aunswered, & sayde vnto hym, Hence from me Satan: For it is writte, Thou shalt worship the Lorde thy God, and hym only shalt thou serue.
