7Kai ve ni beek nawh, a cu boeih ve nang aham seh nyng,” tina hy.So if You worship me, it will all be Yours.”

8Jesu ing, “Bawipa na Khawsa doeng ce beek nawh anih a bi doeng ce bi lah, tinawh qeena ak awm ni,” tina hy.But Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God and serve Him only.’”

11a mingmih ing nang ce ami kut ing ni dawm kawm uh, lung awh am nak khoeng qunaak aham,” tina hy.and they will lift You up in their hands, so that You will not strike Your foot against a stone.’”

12Jesu ing, “Bawipa na Khawsa ce koeh noek koeh dak,” tinawh ak awm ni,” tina hy.But Jesus answered, “It also says, ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’”

13Qaai ing a sykzoek coengawh, a tym leek a awm hlan dy cehta hy.When the devil had finished every temptation, he left Him until an opportune time.
