Luke 9:26-40

²⁶'For whoever may be ashamed of me, and of my words, of this one shall the Son of Man be ashamed, when he may come in his glory, and the Father's, and the holy messengers';

²⁷and I say to you, truly, there are certain of those here standing, who shall not taste of death till they may see the reign of God.'

²⁸And it came to pass, after these words, as it were eight days, that having taken Peter, and John, and James, he went up to the mountain to pray,

²⁹and it came to pass, in his praying, the appearance of his face became altered, and his garment white — sparkling.

³⁰And lo, two men were speaking together with him, who were Moses and Elijah,

³¹who having appeared in glory, spake of his outgoing that he was about to fulfil in Jerusalem,

³²but Peter and those with him were heavy with sleep, and having waked, they saw his glory, and the two men standing with him.

³³And it came to pass, in their parting from him, Peter said unto Jesus, 'Master, it is good to us to be here; and we may make three booths, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah,' not knowing what he saith:

³⁴and as he was speaking these things, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them, and they feared in their entering into the cloud,

³⁵and a voice came out of the cloud saying, 'This is My Son — the Beloved; hear ye him;'

³⁶and when the voice was past, Jesus was found alone; and they were silent, and declared to no one in those days anything of what they have seen.

³⁷And it came to pass on the next day, they having come down from the mount, there met him a great multitude,

³⁸and lo, a man from the multitude cried out, saying, 'Teacher, I beseech thee, look upon my son, because he is my only begotten;

³⁹and lo, a spirit doth take him, and suddenly he doth cry out, and it teareth him, with foaming, and it hardly departeth from him, bruising him,

⁴⁰and I besought thy disciples that they might cast it out, and they were not able.'
