SEV Biblia, Chapter 4:12
Y respondiendo Jess, le dijo: Dicho est: No tentars al Seor tu Dios.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-13 - Christ's being led into the wilderness gave an advantage to the tempter; for there he was alone, none were with him by whose prayer and advice he might be helped in the hour of temptation. He who kne his own strength might give Satan advantage; but we may not, who know our own weakness. Being in all things made like unto his brethren Jesus would, like the other children of God, live in dependence upo the Divine Providence and promise. The word of God is our sword, an faith in that word is our shield. God has many ways of providing for his people, and therefore is at all times to be depended upon in the way of duty. All Satan's promises are deceitful; and if he is permitte to have any influence in disposing of the kingdoms of the world and the glory of them, he uses them as baits to insnare men to destruction. We should reject at once and with abhorrence, every opportunity of sinfu gain or advancement, as a price offered for our souls; we should see riches, honours, and happiness in the worship and service of God only Christ will not worship Satan; nor, when he has the kingdoms of the world delivered to him by his Father, will he suffer any remains of the worship of the devil to continue in them. Satan also tempted Jesus to be his own murderer, by unfitting confidence in his Father' protection, such as he had no warrant for. Let not any abuse of Scripture by Satan or by men abate our esteem, or cause us to abando its use; but let us study it still, seek to know it, and seek ou defence from it in all kinds of assaults. Let this word dwell richly i us, for it is our life. Our victorious Redeemer conquered, not for himself only, but for us also. The devil ended all the temptation Christ let him try all his force, and defeated him. Satan saw it was to no purpose to attack Christ, who had nothing in him for his fiery dart to fasten upon. And if we resist the devil, he will flee from us. Ye he departed but till the season when he was again to be let loose upo Jesus, not as a tempter, to draw him to sin, and so to strike at his head, at which he now aimed and was wholly defeated in; but as persecutor, to bring Christ to suffer, and so to bruise his heel, whic it was told him, he should have to do, and would do, though it would be the breaking of his own head, Ge 3:15. Though Satan depart for season, we shall never be out of his reach till removed from thi present evil world.

12. It is said. For Matthew's it is written, Matt. iv. 7. Luke omits Matthew's again. See Matt. iv. 7.
Robertson's NT Word Studies
4:12 {It is said} (eiretai). Perfect passive indicative, stands said, a favorite way of quoting Scripture in the N.T. In #Mt 4:7 we have the usual "it is written" (gegraptai). Here Jesus quotes #De 6:16. Each time he uses Deuteronomy against the devil. The LXX is quoted. It is the volitive future indicative with ouk, a common prohibition. Jesus points out to the devil that testing God is not trusting God (Plummer).
