Mark 9:2-10

2 ¹Six days later, Jesus took with Him ²Peter and James and John, and brought them up on a high mountain by themselves *. And He was transfigured before them;

3 and ³His garments became radiant and exceedingly white, as no launderer on earth can whiten them.

4 Elijah appeared to them along with Moses; and they were talking with Jesus.

5 Peter said to Jesus, "⁴Rabbi, it is good for us to be here; ⁵let us make three tabernacles, one for You, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah."

6 For he did not know what to answer; for they became terrified.

7 Then a cloud formed, overshadowing them, and ⁶a voice came out of the cloud, "⁷This is My beloved Son, listen to Him!"

8 All at once they looked around and saw no one with them anymore, except Jesus alone.

9 ⁸As they were coming down from the mountain, He ⁹gave them orders not to relate to anyone what they had seen, until * * the Son of Man rose from the dead.

10 They seized upon that statement, discussing with one another what rising from the dead meant.
