Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / verbs
ἡμέρας τεσσεράκοντα πειραζόμενος ὑπὸ τοῦ διαβόλου
days forty /being/_tempted by the devil
The Greek verb indicates that the temptation continued throughout the 40 days. You can make this clear in your translation, as UST does: “While he was there, the devil kept tempting him for 40 days”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ἡμέρας τεσσεράκοντα πειραζόμενος ὑπὸ τοῦ διαβόλου
days forty /being/_tempted by the devil
If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this with an active form. It may be helpful to begin a new sentence here. Alternate translation: [For 40 days the devil kept tempting him] or [For 40 days the devil kept trying to persuade him disobey God]
Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns
καὶ οὐκ ἔφαγεν οὐδὲν
and not ˱he˲_ate nothing
Make sure that it is clear in your translation that the word he refers to Jesus, not to the devil. Alternate translation: [Jesus did not eat anything]
4:2 tempted by the devil: The term diabolos is a Greek translation of the Hebrew satan, meaning “accuser” or “adversary” (1 Chr 21:1; Job 1:1–2:13; Zech 3:1-2). Luke uses both terms (“devil,” Luke 4:3, 6, 13; 8:12; “Satan,” 10:18; 11:18; 13:16; 22:3, 31). Adam and Eve were tested by Satan and failed; Jesus, the second Adam, resisted temptation and thus reversed the judgment against Adam and Eve.

OET (OET-RV) where he was tested by the devil for forty days. He didn’t eat anything during that time, and was hungry at the end.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
