1 Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, left the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, 2 where for forty days he was tempted by the devil. He ate nothing during those days, and at the end of them he was hungry.
3 The devil said to him, If you are the Son of God, tell this stone
to become bread.
4 Jesus answered, It is written:
Man shall not live on bread
alone.
5 The devil led him up to a high place and showed him in an instant
all the kingdoms of the world. 6 And he said to him, I will give you
all their authority and splendor; it has been given to me, and I can
give it to anyone I want to. 7 If you worship me, it will all be
yours.
8 Jesus answered, It is written:
Worship the Lord your God and serve
him only.
9 The devil led him to Jerusalem and had him stand on the highest
point of the temple. If you are the Son of God,
he said,
“throw yourself down from here. 10 For it is written:
‘He will command his angels concerning you
to guard you carefully;
11 they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.’”
12 Jesus answered, It is said:
Do not put the Lord your God to
the test.
13 When the devil had finished all this tempting, he left him until an opportune time.
23 When the supper was finished, Jesus drew aside from them to think on the completion of His Father's work.
24 And Jesus heard a voice, which said, 25 You are the Son of Man.
You must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, the chief
priests and the teachers of the law, 26 and you must be killed
unjustly that justice may come to the world.
27 The voice said, “You are the Son of God. After three days you must rise again defeating death. 28 You must ascend into heaven, and sit at the right hand of the Father.
29 So shall you glorify the Father, and fulfill the scriptures. 30 Then shall your disciples go out and teach the way of God to all men, in accordance with the truth. 31 Then shall wondrous deeds be done in all the world in your name.”
32 Jesus did not answer, but his heart was troubled.
