'Temptation' in the Bible

For inasmuch as He has Himself felt the pain of temptation and trial, He is also able instantly to help those who are tempted and tried.

do not harden your hearts as your forefathers did in the time of the provocation on the day of the temptation in the Desert,

They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, they were tried by temptation, they were killed with the sword. They went from place to place in sheepskins or goatskins, enduring want, oppression and cruelty.
