Tyndale New Testament

Mat 17:1–8

1 And after. vi. dayes Iesus toke Peter and Iames and Ihon his brother and brought them vp into an hye mountayne out of the waye
2 and was transfygured before them: and his face did shyne as the sunne and his clothes were as whyte as the light.
3 And beholde ther appered vnto the Moses and Helyas talkinge with him.
4 Then answered Peter and sayde to Iesus: master here is good beinge for vs. If thou wylt leet vs make here .iii. tabernacles one for the and one for Moses and one for Helyas.
5 Whyll he yet spake beholde a bright cloude shadowed them. And beholde there came a voyce out of the cloude sayinge: this is my deare sonne in whom I delite heare him.
6 And when the disciples hearde that they fell on their faces and were soore afrayed.
7 And Iesus came and touched them and sayde: aryse and be not afrayed.
8 And when they looked vp they saw no man saue Iesus onely.

2 And after .vi. dayes Iesus toke Peter Iames and Iohn and leede them vp into an hye mountayne out of the waye alone and he was transfigured before them.
3 And his rayment dyd shyne and was made very whyte even as snowe: so whyte as noo fuller can make apon the erth.
4 And ther apered vnto them Helyas with Moses: and they talked with Iesu.
5 And Peter answered and sayde to Iesu: Master here is good beinge for vs let vs make .iii. tabernacles one for the one for Moses and one for Helyas.
6 And yet he wist not what he sayde: for they were afrayde.
7 And ther was a cloude that shaddowed the. And a voyce came out of the cloude sayinge: This is my dere sonne here him.
8 And sodenly they loked rounde aboute them and sawe no man more then Iesus only with them.

28 And it folowed about an .viii. dayes after thoose sayinges that he toke Peter Iames and Iohn and went vp into a moutayne to praye.
29 And as he prayed the facion of his countenaunce was changed and his garment was whyte and shoone.
30 And beholde two men talked with him and they were Moses and Helyas
31 which appered gloriously and spake of his departinge which he shuld ende at Ierusalem.
32 Peter and they that were with him were hevy with slepe. And when they woke they sawe his glorie and two men stondinge with him.
33 And it chaunsed as they departed from him Peter sayde vnto Iesus: Master it is good beinge here for vs. Let vs make thre tabernacles one for the and one for Moses and one for Helyas: and wist not what he sayde.
34 Whyll he thus spake ther came a cloude and shadowed them: and they feared when they were come vnder the cloude.
35 And ther came a voyce out of the cloude sayinge: This is my deare sonne heare him.
36 And assone as the voyce was past Iesus was founde alone. And they kept it cloose and tolde noo man in thoose dayes eny of those thinges which they had sene.
