# Jesus answered him, "It is written ... alone.'"
Jesus's rejection of the devil's challenge is clearly implied in his answer. It may be helpful to state this clearly for your audience, as the UDB does. Alternate translation: "Jesus replied, 'No, I will not do that because it is written ... alone."'" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-explicit]])
