Luke 4:5-13

5Then the devil led Him up to a high place and showed Him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world. 6“I will give You authority over all these kingdoms and all their glory,” he said. “For it has been relinquished to me, and I can give it to anyone I wish. 7So if You worship me, it will all be Yours.”

8But Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God and serve Him only.’1”

9Then the devil led Him to Jerusalem and set Him on the pinnacle of the temple. “If You are the Son of God,” he said, “throw Yourself down from here. 10For it is written:

‘He will command His angels concerning Youto guard You carefully,11and they will lift You up in their hands,so that You will not strike Your foot against a stone.’2”

12But Jesus answered, “It also says, ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’3”

13When the devil had finished every temptation, he left Him until an opportune time.
