Matthew 17:1-9
1 |
Now after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, led them up on a high mountain by themselves; |
2 |
and He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light. |
3 |
And behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with Him. |
4 |
Then Peter answered and said to Jesus, "Lord, it is good for us to be here; if You wish, let us make here three tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah." |
5 |
While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them; and suddenly a voice came out of the cloud, saying, "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Hear Him!" |
6 |
And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their faces and were greatly afraid. |
7 |
But Jesus came and touched them and said, "Arise, and do not be afraid." |
8 |
When they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus only. |
9 |
Now as they came down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying, "Tell the vision to no one until the Son of Man is risen from the dead." |
