Matthew 17:3-16 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

3. and lo, Moses and Elias appeared to them talking with him.

4. And Peter answering said to Jesus, Lord, it is good we should be here. If thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles: for thee one, and for Moses one, and one for Elias.

5. While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and lo, a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I have found my delight: hear him.

6. And the disciples hearing it fell upon their faces, and were greatly terrified.

7. And Jesus coming to them touched them, and said, Rise up, and be not terrified.

8. And lifting up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus alone.

9. And as they descended from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no one, until the Son of man be risen up from among the dead.

10. And his disciples demanded of him saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias must first have come?

11. And he answering said to them, Elias indeed comes first and will restore all things.

12. But I say unto you that Elias has already come, and they have not known him, but have done unto him whatever they would. Thus also the Son of man is about to suffer from them.

13. Then the disciples understood that he spoke to them of John the baptist.

14. And when they came to the crowd, a man came to him, falling on his knees before him, and saying,

15. Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is lunatic, and suffers sorely; for often he falls into the fire and often into the water.

16. And I brought him to thy disciples, and they were not able to heal him.
