The Transfiguration
1 wAnd after six days Jesus took with him Peter and James, and John his brother, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. 2 And xhe was ytransfigured before them, and his zface shone like the sun, and his clothes became awhite as light. 3 bAnd behold, there appeared to them Moses and Elijah, talking with him. 4 And Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good that we are here. If you wish, I will make three ctents here, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah.” 5 He was still speaking when, behold, a bright dcloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud said, e“This is my beloved Son,1 fwith whom I am well pleased; glisten to him.” 6 When the disciples heard this, they fell on their faces and were terrified. 7 But Jesus came and htouched them, saying, “Rise, and have no fear.” 8 And when they lifted up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus only.
The Transfiguration
28 jNow about eight days after these sayings he took with him Peter and John and James and went up on the mountain to pray. 29 And as he was praying, kthe appearance of his lface was altered, and his clothing became dazzling white. 30 mAnd behold, two men were talking with him, Moses and Elijah, 31 who appeared in glory and spoke of his ndeparture,1 which he was about to accomplish at Jerusalem. 32 Now Peter and those who were with him were heavy with sleep, but when they became fully awake they saw his oglory and the two men who stood with him. 33 And as the men were parting from him, Peter said to Jesus, “Master, it is good that we are here. Let us make three ptents, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah”—not knowing what he said. 34 As he was saying these things, a qcloud came and overshadowed them, and they were afraid as they entered the cloud. 35 And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, r“This is my Son, my sChosen One;2 tlisten to him!” 36 And when the voice had spoken, Jesus was found alone. And they kept silent and told no one in those days anything of what they had seen.
