| Matthew 17:1-8 |
 |
"And 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 he was transfigured before
them, and his face shone like the sun, and his clothes became white as light.
3 And 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 tents here, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah.” 5 He was still
speaking when, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the
cloud said, “This is my beloved Son,[a] with whom I am well pleased; listen to him.”
6 When the disciples heard this, they fell on their faces and were terrified.
7 But Jesus came and touched them, saying, “Rise, and have no fear.”
8 And when they lifted up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus only. |
