Luke 9:20                                      749                                       Luke 9:58

               20  And he sayd vnto them, But whom say ye that and suddenly he crieth, and he teareth him, that
               I am? Peter answered, and sayd, That Christ of he fometh, and hardly departeth from him, when
               God.  21  And he warned and commanded them, he hath bruised him.         40  Nowe I haue besought
               that they should tell that to no man,  22  Saying,  thy disciples to cast him out, but they could not.
               The Sonne of man must suffer many things and      41  Then Iesus answered, and said, O generation
               be reproued of the Elders, and of the hie Priests  faithlesse, and crooked, howe long now shall I
               and Scribes, and be slaine, and the third day rise  be with you, and suffer you? bring thy sonne
               againe.  23  And he sayd to them all, If any man  hither.  42  And whiles he was yet comming, the
               will come after me, let him denie himselfe, and   deuill rent him, and tare him: and Iesus rebuked
               take vp his crosse dayly, and follow me.  24  For  the vncleane spirite, and healed the childe, and
               whosoeuer will saue his life, shall lose it: and  deliuered him to his father.  43 And they were all
               whosoeuer shall lose his life for my sake, the    amased at the mightie power of God: and while
               same shall saue it.  25  For what auantageth it a  they all wondered at al things, which Iesus did, he

               himselfe, or lose himselfe?  26 For whosoeuer shall  gently: for it shall come to passe, that the Sonne
               be ashamed of me, and of my wordes, of him        of man shalbe deliuered into the handes of men.
               shall the Sonne of man be ashamed, when hee       45 But they vnderstood not that word: for it was
               shall come in his glorie, and in the glorie of the
               Father, and of the holy Angels.  27  And I tell you  hid from them, so that they could not perceiue
               of a suretie, there be some standing here, which  it: and they feared to aske him of that worde.
                                                                 46

               an eyght dayes after those wordes, that he tooke  Iesus sawe the thoughtes of their heartes, he
                                                                                                          48
               Peter and Iohn, and Iames, and went vp into a     tooke a litle childe, and set him by him,   And
               mountaine to pray.    29  And as he prayed, the   said vnto them, Whosoeuer receiueth this litle
                                                                 childe in my Name, receiueth me: and whosoeuer
               fashion of his countenance was changed, and       shall receiue me, receiueth him that sent me:
               his garment was white and glistered.     30  And  for he that is least among you all, he shall be
               beholde, two men talked with him, which were      great.  49  And Iohn answered and saide, Master,
               Moses and Elias:   31  Which appeared in glory,   we sawe one casting out deuils in thy Name, and
               and tolde of his departing, which he shoulde      we forbad him, because he followeth thee not
               accomplish at Hierusalem.  32 But Peter and they  with vs.  50  Then Iesus saide vnto him, Forbid ye
               that were with him, were heauie with sleepe,      him not: for he that is not against vs, is with
               and when they awoke, they saw his glorie, and     vs.  51 And it came to passe, when the dayes were
               the two men standing with him.    33  And it came  accomplished, that he should be receiued vp, he
               to passe, as they departed from him, Peter said   setled himselfe fully to goe to Hierusalem,  52 And
               vnto Iesus, Master, it is good for vs to be here:  sent messengers before him: and they went and
               let vs therefore make three tabernacles, one for  entred into a towne of the Samaritans, to prepare
               thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias, and   him lodging.  53 But they woulde not receiue him,
               wist not what he said.  34  Whiles he thus spake,  because his behauiour was, as though he would
               there came a cloude and ouershadowed them,                             54
               and they feared when they were entring into the   go to Hierusalem.      And when his disciples,
               cloude.  35  And there came a voyce out of the    Iames and Iohn sawe it, they saide, Lord, wilt
               cloud, saying, This is that my beloued Sonne,     thou that we commaund, that fire come downe
                                                                 from heauen, and consume them, euen as Elias
               heare him.    36  And when the voyce was past,    did?  55 But Iesus turned about, and rebuked them,
               Iesus was found alone: and they kept it close,    and said, Ye knowe not of what spirit ye are.
               and tolde no man in those dayes any of those      56  For the Sonne of man is not come to destroy
               things which they had seene.   37  And it came to  mens liues, but to saue them. Then they went to
