恭讀聖瑪竇福音 4:1-11
那時候，耶穌被聖神領到曠野，為受魔鬼的試探。祂四十天四十夜禁食，後來就餓了。試探者就前來對耶穌說：「祢如果是天主子，就命令這些石頭變成餅吧！」耶穌回答說：「經上記載：『人生活不只靠餅，也靠天主所說的話。』」那時，魔鬼引耶穌到了聖城，使祂站在聖殿頂上，對祂說：「祢如果是天主子，就跳下去， 因經上記載：『祂為祢吩咐了自己的天使，用手托著祢，免得祢的腳碰在石頭上。』」耶穌對魔鬼說：「經上又記載：『你不可試探上主，你的天主！』」魔鬼又把耶穌帶到一座極高的山上，將普世萬國及其榮華，指給祂看，對祂說：「祢如果俯伏朝拜我，我必把這一切交給祢。」那時，耶穌就對魔鬼說：「去吧！撒旦！因為經上記載：『你要朝拜上主，你的天主，惟獨事奉祂。』」於是，魔鬼離開了耶穌，就有天使前來伺候耶穌。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 4:1-11
1 Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. 2 And he fasted forty days and forty nights, and afterward he was hungry. 3 And the tempter came and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command these stones to become loaves of bread.” 4 But he answered, “It is written, `Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.'” 5 Then the devil took him to the holy city, and set him on the pinnacle of the temple, 6 and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down; for it is written, `He will give his angels charge of you,’ and `On their hands they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone.'” 7 Jesus said to him, “Again it is written, `You shall not tempt the Lord your God.'” 8 Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and the glory of them; 9 and he said to him, “All these I will give you, if you will fall down and worship me.” 10 Then Jesus said to him, “Begone, Satan! for it is written, `You shall worship the Lord your God and him only shall you serve.'” 11 Then the devil left him, and behold, angels came and ministered to him.
