Psalm 19

To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David.

19 The heavens declare the glory of God; and the expanse sheweth the work of his hands.

Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.

There is no speech and there are no words, yet their voice is heard.

Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their language to the extremity of the world. In them hath he set a tent for the sun,

And he is as a bridegroom going forth from his chamber; he rejoiceth as a strong man to run the race.

His going forth is from the end of the heavens, and his circuit unto the ends of it; and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.

The law of Jehovah is perfect, restoring the soul; the testimony of Jehovah is sure, making wise the simple;

The precepts of Jehovah are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of Jehovah is pure, enlightening the eyes;

The fear of Jehovah is clean, enduring for ever; the judgments of Jehovah are truth, they are righteous altogether:

10 They are more precious than gold, yea, than much fine gold; and sweeter than honey and the dropping of the honeycomb.

11 Moreover, by them is thy servant enlightened; in keeping them there is great reward.

12 Who understandeth [his] errors? Purify me from secret [faults].

13 Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous [sins]; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be perfect, and I shall be innocent from great transgression.

14 Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in thy sight, O Jehovah, my rock, and my redeemer.

Exodus 19:16-25

16 And it came to pass on the third day, when it was morning, that there were thunders and lightnings and a heavy cloud on the mountain, and the sound of the trumpet exceeding loud; and the whole people that was in the camp trembled.

17 And Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet with God; and they stood at the foot of the mountain.

18 And the whole of mount Sinai smoked, because Jehovah descended on it in fire; and its smoke ascended as the smoke of a furnace; and the whole mountain shook greatly.

19 And the sound of the trumpet increased and became exceeding loud; Moses spoke, and God answered him by a voice.

20 And Jehovah came down on mount Sinai, on the top of the mountain; and Jehovah called Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up.

21 And Jehovah said to Moses, Go down, testify to the people that they break not through to Jehovah to gaze, and many of them perish.

22 And the priests also, who come near to Jehovah, shall hallow themselves, lest Jehovah break forth on them.

23 And Moses said to Jehovah, The people cannot come up to mount Sinai; for thou hast testified to us, saying, Set bounds about the mountain, and hallow it.

24 And Jehovah said to him, Go, descend, and thou shalt come up, thou, and Aaron with thee; but the priests and the people shall not break through to go up to Jehovah, lest he break forth on them.

25 So Moses went down to the people, and told them.

Mark 9:2-8

And after six days Jesus takes with [him] Peter and James and John, and takes them up on a high mountain by themselves apart. And he was transfigured before them:

and his garments became shining, exceeding white [as snow], such as fuller on earth could not whiten [them].

And there appeared to them Elias with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.

And Peter answering says to Jesus, Rabbi, it is good that we should be here; and let us make three tabernacles, for thee one, and for Moses one, and for Elias one.

For he knew not what he should say, for they were filled with fear.

And there came a cloud overshadowing them, and there came a voice out of the cloud, *This* is my beloved Son: hear him.

And suddenly having looked around, they no longer saw any one, but Jesus alone with themselves.
