✝ The Transfiguration of the Lord
Liturgy
Book of Daniel
| Dan 7,9-10.13-14. |
|---|
9 As I watched : Thrones were set up and the Ancient One took his throne. His clothing was bright as snow, and the hair on his head as white as wool ; His throne was flames of fire, with wheels of burning fire.
10 A surging stream of fire flowed out from where he sat; Thousands upon thousands were ministering to him, and myriads upon myriads attended him. The court was convened, and the books were opened.
13 As the visions during the night continued, I saw One like a son of man coming, on the clouds of heaven; When he reached the Ancient One and was presented before him,
14 He received dominion, glory, and kingship; nations and peoples of every language serve him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that shall not be taken away, his kingship shall not be destroyed.
Psalms
| Ps 97(96),1-2.5-6.9. |
|---|
1 The LORD is king; let the earth rejoice;
let the many islands be glad.
2 Clouds and darkness are round about him,
justice and judgment are the foundation of his throne.
5 The mountains melt like wax before the LORD,
before the Lord of all the earth.
6 The heavens proclaim his justice,
and all peoples see his glory.
9 You, O LORD, are the Most High over all the earth,
exalted far above all gods.
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Matthew
| Matt 17,1-9. |
|---|
1 Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, and led them up a high mountain by themselves.
2 And he was transfigured before them; his face shone like the sun and his clothes became white as light.
3 And behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, conversing with him.
4 Then Peter said to Jesus in reply, "Lord, it is good that we are here. If you wish, I will make three tents here, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."
5 While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud cast a shadow over them, then from the cloud came a voice that said, "This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased; listen to him."
6 When the disciples heard this, they fell prostrate and were very much afraid.
7 But Jesus came and touched them, saying, "Rise, and do not be afraid."
8 And when the disciples raised their eyes, they saw no one else but Jesus alone.
9 As they were coming down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, "Do not tell the vision to anyone until the Son of Man has been raised from the dead."
