Temptation

¹Then Jesus, being filled with the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, ²being tempted for forty days by the devil. And in those days He ate nothing, and afterward, when they had ended, He was hungry. ³And the devil said to Him, "If You are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread." ⁴But Jesus answered him, saying, "It is written, "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God."' ⁵Then the devil, taking Him up on a high mountain, showed Him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. ⁶And the devil said to Him, "All this authority I will give You, and their glory; for this has been delivered to me, and I give it to whomever I wish. ⁷Therefore, if You will worship before me, all will be Yours." ⁸And Jesus answered and said to him, "Get behind Me, Satan! For it is written, "You shall worship the LORD your God, and Him only you shall serve."' ⁹Then he brought Him to Jerusalem, set Him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to Him, "If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down from here. ¹⁰For it is written: "He shall give His angels charge over you, To keep you,' ¹¹and, "In their hands they shall bear you up, Lest you dash your foot against a stone."' ¹²And Jesus answered and said to him, "It has been said, "You shall not tempt the LORD your God."' ¹³Now when the devil had ended every temptation, he departed from Him until an opportune time.

^١ أَمَّا يَسُوعُ فَرَجَعَ مِنَ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ مُمْتَلِئًا مِنَ ٱلرُّوحِ ٱلْقُدُسِ، وَكَانَ يُقْتَادُ بِٱلرُّوحِ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ ^٢أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْمًا يُجَرَّبُ مِنْ إِبْلِيسَ. وَلَمْ يَأْكُلْ شَيْئًا فِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ. وَلَمَّا تَمَّتْ جَاعَ أَخِيرًا. ^٣وَقَالَ لَهُ إِبْلِيسُ: «إِنْ كُنْتَ ٱبْنَ ٱللهِ، فَقُلْ لِهَذَا ٱلْحَجَرِ أَنْ يَصِيرَ خُبْزًا». ^٤فَأَجَابَهُ يَسُوعُ قَائِلًا: «مَكْتُوبٌ: أَنْ لَيْسَ بِٱلْخُبْزِ وَحْدَهُ يَحْيَا ٱلْإِنْسَانُ، بَلْ بِكُلِّ كَلِمَةٍ مِنَ ٱللهِ». ^٥ثُمَّ أَصْعَدَهُ إِبْلِيسُ إِلَى جَبَلٍ عَالٍ وَأَرَاهُ جَمِيعَ مَمَالِكِ ٱلْمَسْكُونَةِ فِي لَحْظَةٍ مِنَ ٱلزَّمَانِ. ^٦وَقَالَ لَهُ إِبْلِيسُ: «لَكَ أُعْطِي هَذَا ٱلسُّلْطَانَ كُلَّهُ وَمَجْدَهُنَّ، لِأَنَّهُ إِلَيَّ قَدْ دُفِعَ، وَأَنَا أُعْطِيهِ لِمَنْ أُرِيدُ. ^٧فَإِنْ سَجَدْتَ أَمَامِي يَكُونُ لَكَ ٱلْجَمِيعُ». ^٨فَأَجَابَهُ يَسُوعُ وَقَالَ: «ٱذْهَبْ يَا شَيْطَانُ! إِنَّهُ مَكْتُوبٌ: لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ تَسْجُدُ وَإِيَّاهُ وَحْدَهُ تَعْبُدُ». ^٩ثُمَّ جَاءَ بِهِ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَأَقَامَهُ عَلَى جَنَاحِ ٱلْهَيْكَلِ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «إِنْ كُنْتَ ٱبْنَ ٱللهِ فَٱطْرَحْ نَفْسَكَ مِنْ هُنَا إِلَى أَسْفَلُ، ^١٠لِأَنَّهُ مَكْتُوبٌ: أَنَّهُ يُوصِي مَلَائِكَتَهُ بِكَ لِكَيْ يَحْفَظُوكَ، ^١١وَأَنَّهُمْ عَلَى أَيَادِيهِمْ يَحْمِلُونَكَ لِكَيْ لَا تَصْدِمَ بِحَجَرٍ رِجْلَكَ». ^١٢فَأَجَابَ يَسُوعُ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «إِنَّهُ قِيلَ: لَا تُجَرِّبِ ٱلرَّبَّ إِلَهَكَ». ^١٣وَلَمَّا أَكْمَلَ إِبْلِيسُ كُلَّ تَجْرِبَةٍ فَارَقَهُ إِلَى حِينٍ.
