The verses around it, from Luke 4.
1 Then Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,
2 where for forty days He was tempted by the devil. He ate nothing during those days, and when they had ended, He was hungry.
3 The devil said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread.”
4 But Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone.’”
5 Then the devil led Him up to a high place and showed Him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world.
