2 Peter 1:17

17 For [he] received honor and glory from God the Father [when][a] a voice such as this was brought to him by the Majestic Glory, "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."

2 Peter 1:17 In-Context

15 And I will also make every effort [that] you are able at any time, after my departure, {to recall these things to mind}.
16 For we did not make known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ [by] following ingeniously concocted myths, but [by] being eyewitnesses of that one's majesty.
17 For [he] received honor and glory from God the Father [when] a voice such as this was brought to him by the Majestic Glory, "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."
18 And [we] ourselves heard this voice brought from heaven [when we] were with him on the holy mountain,
19 and we possess [as] more reliable the prophetic word, to which you do well [if you] pay attention to [it] as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts,
