Luke 9:16-37

¹⁶Then he tooke the fiue loaues, and the two fishes, and looked vp to heauen, and blessed them, and brake, and gaue to the disciples, to set before the people.

¹⁷So they did all eate, and were satisfied: and there was taken vp of that remained to them, twelue baskets full of broken meate.

¹⁸And it came to passe, as hee was alone praying, his disciples were with him: and he asked them, saying, Whom say the people that I am?

¹⁹They answered, and sayd, Iohn Baptist: and others say, Elias: and some say, that one of the olde Prophets is risen againe.

²⁰And he sayd vnto them, But whom say ye that I am? Peter answered, and sayd, That Christ of God.

²¹And he warned and commanded them, that they should tell that to no man,

²²Saying, The Sonne of man must suffer many things and be reproued of the Elders, and of the hie Priests and Scribes, and be slaine, and the third day rise againe.

²³And he sayd to them all, If any man will come after me, let him denie himselfe, and take vp his crosse dayly, and follow me.

²⁴For whosoeuer will saue his life, shall lose it: and whosoeuer shall lose his life for my sake, the same shall saue it.

²⁵For what auantageth it a man, if he win the whole worlde, and destroy himselfe, or lose himselfe?

²⁶For whosoeuer shall be ashamed of me, and of my wordes, of him shall the Sonne of man be ashamed, when hee shall come in his glorie, and in the glorie of the Father, and of the holy Angels.

²⁷And I tell you of a suretie, there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they haue seene the kingdome of God.

²⁸And it came to passe about an eyght dayes after those wordes, that he tooke Peter and Iohn, and Iames, and went vp into a mountaine to pray.

²⁹And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was changed, and his garment was white and glistered.

³⁰And beholde, two men talked with him, which were Moses and Elias:

³¹Which appeared in glory, and tolde of his departing, which he shoulde accomplish at Hierusalem.

³²But Peter and they that were with him, were heauie with sleepe, and when they awoke, they saw his glorie, and the two men standing with him.

³³And it came to passe, as they departed from him, Peter said vnto Iesus, Master, it is good for vs to be here: let vs therefore make three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias, and wist not what he said.

³⁴Whiles he thus spake, there came a cloude and ouershadowed them, and they feared when they were entring into the cloude.

³⁵And there came a voyce out of the cloud, saying, This is that my beloued Sonne, heare him.

³⁶And when the voyce was past, Iesus was found alone: and they kept it close, and tolde no man in those dayes any of those things which they had seene.

³⁷And it came to passe on the next day, as they came downe from the mountaine, much people met him.
