4. And Jesus answered unto him saying, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.
5. And the devil, leading him up into a high mountain, shewed him all the kingdoms of the habitable world in a moment of time.
6. And the devil said to him, I will give thee all this power, and their glory; for it is given up to me, and to whomsoever I will I give it.
7. If therefore thou wilt do homage before me, all of it shall be thine.
8. And Jesus answering him said, It is written, Thou shalt do homage to the Lord thy God, and him alone shalt thou serve.
9. And he led him to Jerusalem, and set him on the edge of the temple, and said to him, If thou be Son of God, cast thyself down hence;
10. for it is written, He shall give charge to his angels concerning thee to keep thee;
11. and on their hands shall they bear thee, lest in any wise thou strike thy foot against a stone.
12. And Jesus answering said to him, It is said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
13. And the devil, having completed every temptation, departed from him for a time.
14. And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit to Galilee; and a rumour went out into the whole surrounding country about him;
15. and he taught in their synagogues, being glorified of all.
16. And he came to Nazareth, where he was brought up; and he entered, according to his custom, into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up to read.
17. And the book of the prophet Esaias was given to him; and having unrolled the book he found the place where it was written,

19. to preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
20. And having rolled up the book, when he had delivered it up to the attendant, he sat down; and the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed upon him.
