Blessed is anyone who endures testing
because 
  when they have become proven
they will receive the crown,
which is life,
which has been promised
to those who love him

Let no-one
when they are tested say:
 ‘I am tempted by God.’
For God is unable to be tempted by bad things,
but he himself tempts no-one. 

But each person
is tempted by their own evil-desire
being dragged away
and enticed.

Then the evil-desire having conceived
gives birth to sin, 
and the sin having become fully grown
births death

. 

Lord God,
your feed us with the living bread from heaven.
You renew our faith
increase our hope
and strengthen our love.
Teach us to hunger for Christ
who is the true and living bread
and live by every word that comes from your mouth,
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
