St. Matthew
17:1-8
1 ¶ And after six
days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and
bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,
2 And was
transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun,
and his raiment was white as the light.
3 And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias
talking with him.
4 Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good
for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three
tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for
Elias.
5 While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed
them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This
is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.
6 And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face,
and were sore afraid.
7 And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be
not afraid.
8 And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man,
save Jesus only.

St. Mark 9:2-8
2 And after six
days Jesus taketh with him Peter, and James, and John, and
leadeth them up into an high mountain apart by themselves:
and he was transfigured before them.
3 And his raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow;
so as no fuller on earth can white them.
4 And there appeared unto them Elias with Moses: and they
were talking with Jesus.
5 And Peter answered and said to Jesus, Master, it is good
for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one
for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.
6 For he wist not what to say; for they were sore afraid.
7 And there was a
cloud that overshadowed them: and a voice came out of the
cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.
8 And suddenly,
when they had looked round about, they saw no man any more,
save Jesus only with themselves.

St. Luke
9:28-36
28 ¶ And it came
to pass about an eight days after these sayings, he took
Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain to
pray.
29 And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was
altered, and his raiment was white and glistering.
30 And, behold, there talked with him two men, which were
Moses and Elias:
31 Who appeared in glory, and spake of his decease which he
should accomplish at Jerusalem.
32 But Peter and they that were with him were heavy with
sleep: and when they were awake, they saw his glory, and the
two men that stood with him.
33 And it came to pass, as they departed from him, Peter
said unto Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and
let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for
Moses, and one for Elias: not knowing what he said.
34 While he thus
spake, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them: and they
feared as they entered into the cloud.
35 And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is
my beloved Son: hear him.
36 And when the
voice was past, Jesus was found alone. And they kept it
close, and told no man in those days any of those things
which they had seen. |
