Remember the Lord

8 “Carefully follow every command I am giving you today, so that you may live and increase, and may enter and take possession of the land^(A) the Lord swore to your ancestors. ² Remember that the Lord your God led you on the entire journey these forty years in the wilderness, so that he might humble you and test you to know what was in your heart, whether or not you would keep his commands. ³ He humbled you by letting you go hungry; then he gave you manna to eat, which you and your ancestors had not known, so that you might learn that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord.^(B)

The Temptation of Jesus

4 Then^(A) Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.^{(B) 2} After he had fasted forty days and forty nights,^(C) he was hungry. ³ Then the tempter approached him and said, “If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become bread.”^(D)

⁴ He answered, “It is written: Man must not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.”^[a](E)
