Luke - ch 9 v 21 - 40

- And he said unto all, If any man would come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.
- For whosoever would save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.
- For what is a man profited, if he gain the whole world, and lose or forfeit his own self?
- For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in his own glory, and `the glory' of the Father, and of the holy angels.
- But I tell you of a truth, There are some of them that stand here, who shall in no wise taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God.
- And it came to pass about eight days after these sayings, that he took with him Peter and John and James, and went up into the mountain to pray.

- And behold, there talked with him two men, who were Moses and Elijah;
- who appeared in glory, and spake of his decease which he was about to accomplish at Jerusalem.

- And it came to pass, as they were parting 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 Elijah: not knowing what he said.
- And while he said these things, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them: and they feared as they entered into the cloud.
- And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my Son, my chosen: hear ye him.
- And when the voice came, Jesus was found alone. And they held their peace, and told no man in those days any of the things which they had seen.
- And it came to pass, on the next day, when they were come down from the mountain, a great multitude met him.
- And behold, a man from the multitude cried, saying, Teacher, I beseech thee to look upon my son; for he is mine only child:
- and behold, a spirit taketh him, and he suddenly crieth out; and it teareth him that he foameth, and it hardly departeth from him, bruising him sorely.
- And I besought thy disciples to cast it out; and they could not.
