3 And the deuel seide to him, If thou art Goddis sone, seie to this stoon, that it be maad breed.
And the Devil said to him, If thou art the Son of God, command this stone that it become a loaf of bread.
4 And Jhesus answeride to hym, It is writun, That a man lyueth not in breed aloone, but in euery word of God.
And Jesus answered him, It is written, “Not on bread alone shall man live.”

And taking him up, he showed him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.

And the Devil said to him, All this power will I give thee, and their glory; because to me it hath been delivered, and I give it to whomever I will.
7 therfor if thou falle doun, and worschipe bifore me, alle thingis schulen be thine.
If thou then wilt worship me, it shall all be thine.
