Matthew 17:9-13

9 ¹And as they were coming down the mountain, Jesus commanded them, ²“Tell no one the vision, until the Son of Man is raised from the dead. ”

10 And the disciples asked him, “Then why do the scribes say ³that first Elijah must come? ”

11 He answered, “Elijah does come, and ⁴he will restore all things.

12 But I tell you that Elijah has already come, and they did not recognize him, but ⁵did to him whatever they pleased. ⁶So also the Son of Man will certainly suffer at their hands. ”

13 ⁷Then the disciples understood that he was speaking to them of John the Baptist.
