The Transfiguration of Jesus
Mark 9:2-13
2
And sixe dayes after, Iesus taketh vnto him Peter, and Iames, and Iohn, and carieth them vp into an hie mountaine out of the way alone, and his shape was changed before them.
3
And his rayment did shine, and was very white, as snowe, so white as no fuller can make vpon the earth.
4
And there appeared vnto them Elias with Moses, and they were talking with Iesus.
5
Then Peter answered, and said to Iesus, Master, it is good for vs to be here: let vs make also three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.
6
Yet hee knewe not what he saide: for they were afraide.
7
And there was a cloude that shadowed them, and a voyce came out of the cloude, saying, This is my beloued Sonne: heare him.
8
And suddenly they looked roud about, and sawe no more any man saue Iesus only with them.
9
And as they came downe from the mountaine, he charged them, that they should tell no man what they had seene, saue when the Sonne of man were risen from the dead againe.
10
So they kept that matter to themselues, and demaunded one of another, what the rising from the dead againe should meane?
11
Also they asked him, saying, Why say the Scribes, that Elias must first come?
12
And he answered, and said vnto them, Elias verely shall first come, and restore all things: and as it is written of the Sonne of man, hee must suffer many things, and be set at nought.
13
But I say vnto you, that Elias is come, (and they haue done vnto him whatsoeuer they would) as it is written of him.
