Read down to the center, where the pattern turns; then rise back out through its mirror.

A 16 For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ,
- B 16 but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
  - C 17 For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory,
    - D 17 This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
  - C' 18 And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him in the holy mount.
- B' 19 We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:
A' 20-21 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.
