spoken against the Lord, and against thee ; pray unto the

Lord that he take away the serpents from us : and Moses

prayed for the people. And the Lord said unto Moses,

Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole: and it shall

come to pass that every one that is bitten, when he looketh

upon it, shall live. And Moses made a serpent of brass, and

put it upon a pole, and it came to pass, that if a serpent had

bitten any man, when he beheld the serpent of brass, he lived.

after these sayings, he took Peter, and John, and James,
and went up in a mountain to pray. And as lic prayed, the

fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was

white and glistering. And behold there talked with him

at Jerusalem. But Peter, and they that were with him, were

heavy with sleep: and when they were awake, they saw his

glory, and the two men that stood with him. And it came to

pass, as they departed from him, Peter said unto Jesus, mas- '

ter it is good for us to be here; and let us make three taber-

Dacles, one for thee, and one for Moses and one for Elias; not

knowing what he said. While he thus spake, there came a

cloud, and overshadowed them : and they feared as they en-

tered into the cloud. And there came a voice out of the

cloud, saying this is my beloved Son, hear him.
