Luke 9:16-37

¹⁶And whanne he hadde take the fyue looues and twei fischis, he biheeld in to heuene, and blesside hem, and brak, and delide to hise disciplis, that thei schulden sette forth bifor the cumpanyes.

¹⁷And alle men eeten, and weren fulfillid; and that that lefte to hem of brokun metis was takun vp, twelue cofyns.

¹⁸And it was don, whanne he was aloone preiynge, hise disciplis weren with hym, and he axide hem, and seide, Whom seien the puple that Y am?

¹⁹And thei answeriden, and seiden, Joon Baptist, othir seien Elie, and othir seien, o profete of the formere is risun.

²⁰And he seide to hem, But who seien ye that Y am? Symount Petir answeride, and seide, The Crist of God.

²¹And he blamynge hem comaundide that thei schulden seie to no man,

²²and seide these thingis, For it bihoueth mannus sone to suffre many thingis, and to be repreued of the elder men, and of the princis of prestis, and of scribis, and to be slayn, and the thridde dai to rise ayen.

²³And he seide to alle, If ony wole come aftir me, denye he hym silf, and take he his cross euery dai, and sue he me.

²⁴For he that wole make his lijf saaf schal leese it; and he that leesith his lijf for me, schal make it saaf.

²⁵And what profitith it to a man, if he wynne al the world, and leese hymsilf, and do peiryng of him silf.

²⁶For who so schameth me and my wordis, mannus sone schal schame hym, whanne he cometh in his maieste, and of the fadris, and of the hooli aungels.

²⁷And Y seie to you, verily ther ben summe stondynge here, whiche schulen not taste deeth, til thei seen the rewme of God.

²⁸And it was don aftir these wordis almest eiyte daies, and he took Petre and James and Joon, and he stiede in to an hil, to preye.

²⁹And while he preiede, the licnesse of his cheer was chaungid, and his clothing was whit schynynge.

³⁰And lo! two men spaken with hym,

³¹and Moises and Helie weren seen in maieste; and thei sayn his goyng out, which he schulde fulfille in Jerusalem.

³²And Petre, and thei that weren with hym, weren heuy of sleep, and thei wakynge saien his majeste, and the twey men that stoden with hym.

³³And it was don, whanne thei departiden fro hym, Petir seide to Jhesu, Comaundour, it is good that we be here, and make we here thre tabernaclis, oon to thee, and oon to Moises, and oon to Elie. And he wiste not what he schulde seie.

³⁴But while he spak these thingis, a cloude was maad, and ouerschadewide hem; and thei dredden, whanne thei entriden in to the cloude.

³⁵And a vois was maad out of the cloude, and seide, This is my derworth sone, here ye hym.

³⁶And while the vois was maad, Jhesu was foundun aloone. And thei weren stille, and to no man seiden in tho daies ouyt of tho thingis, that thei hadden seyn.

³⁷But it was doon in the dai suynge, whanne thei camen doun of the hil, myche puple mette hem.
