1 Then Jesus was sent by the Spirit into the waste land to be tested by the Evil One.

2 And after going without food for forty days and forty nights, he was in need of it.

3 And the Evil One came and said to him, If you are the Son of God, give the word for these stones to become bread.

4 But he made answer and said, It is in the Writings, Bread is not man's only need, but every word which comes out of the mouth of God.

5 Then the Evil One took him to the holy town; and he put him on the highest point of the Temple and said to him,

6 If you are the Son of God, let yourself go down; for it is in the Writings, He will give his angels care over you; and, In their hands they will keep you up, so that your foot may not be crushed against a stone.

7 Jesus said to him, Again it is in the Writings, You may not put the Lord your God to the test.

8 Again, the Evil One took him up to a very high mountain, and let him see all the kingdoms of the world and the glory of them;

9 And he said to him, All these things will I give you, if you will go down on your face and give me worship.

10 Then said Jesus to him, Away, Satan: for it is in the Writings, Give worship to the Lord your God and be his servant only.

11 Then the Evil One went away from him, and angels came and took care of him.

1 Me i reira ka arahina a Ihu e te Wairua ki te koraha, kia whakamatautauria e te rewera.

2 A, no ka wha tekau nga ra ka wha tekau nga po i nohopuku ai, muri iho ka hiakai.

3 Na ka tae te kaiwhakamatautau ki a ia, ka mea, Ki te mea ko te Tama koe a te Atua, kiia iho kia meinga enei kohatu hei taro.

4 Na ka whakahoki ia, ka mea, Kua oti te tuhituhi, E kore e ora te tangata i te taro kau, engari i nga kupu katoa e puta mai ana i te mangai o te Atua.

5 Me i reira ka kawe te rewera i a ia ki te pa tapu, a whakaturia ana ia ki runga ki te keokeonga o te temepara,

6 A ka mea ki a ia, Ki te mea ko te Tama koe a te Atua, rere atu ki raro: kua oti hoki te tuhituhi, Ka korerotia iho koe e ia ki ana anahera; ma ratou koe e hiki ake ki o ratou ringa, kei tutuki tou waewae ki te kohatu.

7 Mea atu ana a Ihu ki a ia, Ka oti ano hoki te tuhituhi, Kaua e whakamatautau ki te Ariki ki tou Atua.

8 Ka kawe ano te rewera i a ia ki runga ki tetahi maunga tiketike rawa, a whakakitea ana ki a ia nga rangatiratanga katoa o te ao, me te kororia o aua mea;

9 A mea ana ki a ia, Ko enei mea katoa e hoatu e ahau ki a koe, ki te tapapa koe, ki te koropiko ki ahau.

10 Na ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, Haere atu, e Hatana; kua oti hoki te tuhituhi, Me koropiko koe ki te Ariki ki tou Atua, me mahi ano ki a ia anake.

11 Na ka mahue ia i te rewera, a ka haere mai nga anahera ka mahi mea mana.
