The Transfiguration
2 1And after six days Jesus took with him
2Peter and James and John, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. And he was
3transfigured before them,
3
and
4his clothes became radiant, intensely white, as no one on earth could bleach them.
4
And there appeared to them Elijah with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.
5
And Peter said to Jesus,
5"Rabbi, it is good that we are here. Let us make three
6tents, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah."
6
For
7he did not know what to say, for they were terrified.
7
And
8a cloud overshadowed them, and
9a voice came out of the cloud,
10"This is my beloved Son;
11listen to him."
8
And suddenly, looking around, they no longer saw anyone with them but Jesus only.
9
12And as they were coming down the mountain,
13he charged them to tell no one what they had seen,
14until the Son of Man had risen from the dead.
10
15So they kept the matter to themselves,
16questioning what this rising from the dead might mean.
