And after sixe dayes, Iesus taketh with him Peter, and Iames, and Iohn, and leadeth them vp into an high mountaine apart by themselues: and he was transfigured before them.

And his raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow: so as no Fuller on earth can white them.

And there appeared vnto them Elias with Moses: and they were talking with Iesus.

And Peter answered, and saide to Iesus, Master, it is good for vs to bee here, and let vs make three Tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.

For he wist not what to say, for they were sore afraid.

And there was a cloud that ouershadowed them: and a voyce came out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloued Sonne: heare him.

And suddenly when they had looked round about, they saw no man any more, saue Iesus only with themselues.

And as they came downe from the mountaine, he charged them that they should tell no man, what things they had seene, till the Sonne of man were risen from the dead.

And they kept that saying with themselues, questioning one with another, what the rising from the dead should meane.

And they asked him, saying, Why say the Scribes that Elias must first come?

And he answered, and told them, Elias verely commeth first, and restoreth al things, and how it is written of the Sonne of man, that he must suffer many things, and be set at nought.

But I say vnto you, that Elias is indeed come, and they haue done vnto him whatsoeuer they listed, as it is written of him.
