3 And the devil said to Him, “If You are dthe Son of God, command this stone to become bread.”

4 But Jesus answered him, saying, “It is written, e‘Man shall not live by bread alone, 3but by every word of God.’ ”

8 And Jesus answered and said to him, 5“Get behind Me, Satan! 6For it is written, g‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only you shall serve.’ ”

9 hThen 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. 10 For it is written:

i‘He shall give His angels charge over you,

To keep you,’

11 and,

j‘In their hands they shall bear you up,

Lest you dash your foot against a stone.’ ”

	About The New King James Version The New King James Version is a total update of the 1611 King James Version, also known as the "Authorized Version." Every attempt has been made to maintain the beauty of the original version while updating the English grammar to contemporary style and usage. The result is much better "readability." It is noteworthy that the NKJV is one of the few modern translations still based on the "Western" or "Byzantine" manuscript tradition. This makes the New King James Version an invaluable aid to comparative English Bible study.
