I trust you read Greek then?

ὅτι τοῖς ἀγγέλοις αὐτοῦ ἐντελεῖται περὶ σοῦ τοῦ διαφυλάξαι σε ἐν πάσαις ταῖς ὁδοῖς σου

That is the Psalm.

καὶ λέγει αὐτῷ εἰ υἱὸς εἶ τοῦ θεοῦ βάλε σεαυτὸν κάτω γέγραπται γὰρ ὅτι τοῖς ἀγγέλοις αὐτοῦ ἐντελεῖται περὶ σοῦ καὶ ἐπὶ χειρῶν ἀροῦσίν σε μήποτε προσκόψῃς πρὸς λίθον τὸν πόδα σου

That is the extended verse in Matthew.

It is the same. It is also the same in the Vulgate, Darby, NIV, KJV, NKJV and 30 other translations. Which anyone who has google or perhaps, as I, Logos International Software, can tell you. As can all the commentary tell you, the Devil may take it out of context, he may misapply it, but he does quote it with precision accuracy.

So what totally off topic point, does this tangent make?

PS: Just in case you are determined to claim it does not or make some excuse for not reading Greek. You can cut and paste the Greek into word, and it will change the characters into their MS hash numerical values and then you can see that word for word it is correct.

My nickname on other forums is "GodGrrl". You have chosen a poor tangent to best me.

Oh, so you're a female member of the Godhead then.

Hmmm, I see.

Please don't bring thy wrath down upon me, O Mighty One.

(Trembling in fear.)

No.

But I have a suspicion that you don't either.

"Even Satan can quote the Bible."

Well, since things have slowed down a bit I think we can continue this discussion.

You say that Satan's words in Matthew 4: 6 are a verbatim quote of Psalm 91: 11-12

"It is the same. It is also the same in the Vulgate, Darby, NIV, KJV, NKJV and 30 other translations. Which anyone who has google or perhaps, as I, Logos International Software, can tell you. As can all the commentary tell you, the Devil may take it out of context, he may misapply it, but he does quote it with precision accuracy."

Let's look at the KJV, since it's the only version that I read.

Psalm 91: 11-12 -

"For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone."

Compared to Mattew 4:6 -

And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone."

Do you not see the discrepancy there, his omission, or do you mean that Satan was quoting with the same "precision accuracy" that he used when quoting Genesis 2:17 in Genesis 3:4?

~~~

God's word is the truth and it is just as impossible for Satan to accurately quote it as it is for God to tell a lie.
