Matthew 17:1–8

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

2 jAnd after six days Jesus took with him Peter and James and John, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. And khe was ltransfigured before them, 3 and his clothes became mradiant, intensely white, as no one1 on earth could bleach them. 4 nAnd there appeared to them Elijah with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus. 5 And Peter said to Jesus, o“Rabbi,2 it is good that we are here. Let us make three ptents, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah.” 6 For he did not know what to say, for they were terrified. 7 And a qcloud overshadowed them, and a voice came out of the cloud, r“This is my beloved Son;3 slisten to him.” 8 And suddenly, looking around, they no longer saw anyone with them but Jesus only.
