Stand in the fear of God and listen to the Holy Gospel.
A reading from the Gospel according to our teacher Saint Luke the Evangelist.
May His Blessings be with us all.
Luke 9 : 28 - 36
Chapter 9
| 28 | Now it came to pass, about eight days after these sayings, that He took Peter, John, and James and went up on the mountain to pray.
|
| 29 | As He prayed, the appearance of His face was altered, and His robe became white and glistening.
|
| 30 | And behold, two men talked with Him, who were Moses and Elijah,
|
| 31 | who appeared in glory and spoke of His decease which He was about to accomplish at Jerusalem.
|
| 32 | But Peter and those with him were heavy with sleep; and when they were fully awake, they saw His glory and the two men who stood with Him.
|
| 33 | Then it happened, as they were parting from Him, that Peter said to Jesus, "Master, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah"--not knowing what he said.
|
| 34 | While he was saying this, a cloud came and overshadowed them; and they were fearful as they entered the cloud.
|
| 35 | And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, "This is My beloved Son. Hear Him!"
|
| 36 | When the voice had ceased, Jesus was found alone. But they kept quiet, and told no one in those days any of the things they had seen.
|
And Glory be to God forever.
