And after sixe dayes, Iesus taketh Peter, Iames, and Iohn his brother, and bringeth them vp into an high mountaine apart,

And was transfigured before them, and his face did shine as the Sunne, and his raiment was white as the light.

And behold, there appeared vnto them Moses, and Elias, talking with him.

Then answered Peter, and saide vnto Iesus, Lord, it is good for vs to be here: If thou wilt, let vs make here three tabernacles: one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.

While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud ouershadowed them: and behold a voyce out of the cloude, which saide, This is my beloued sonne, in whom I am well pleased: heare ye him.

And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were sore afraid.

And Iesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid.

And when they had lift vp their eyes, they saw no man, saue Iesus only.

And as they came downe from the mountaine, Iesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, vntil the sonne of man bee risen againe from the dead.

And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the Scribes that Elias must first come?

And Iesus answered, and said vnto them, Elias truely shall first come, and restore all things:

But I say vnto you, that Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but haue done vnto him whatsoeuer they listed: Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them.

Then the Disciples vnderstood that he spake vnto them of Iohn the Baptist.
