Mattityahu 17:5-15 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

5. While he was speaking, hinei! A brightly shining anan (cloud) overshadowed them, and hinei! A bat kol (a voice from heaven) out of the anan was saying, This is My Ben ahuvi (beloved Son) with whom I am well-pleased. Listen to him.

6. And having heard this, the talmidim fell on their faces and were filled with pachad.

7. And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach came to them, and touched them, and said, Arise, and do not be afraid.

8. And lifting their eyes, they saw no one except only Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach himself, alone.

9. And as Moshiach's talmidim were coming down from the mountain, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach gave them this directive saying, Tell the mareh (vision) to no one until the Ben HaAdam [Moshiach] has undergone the Techiyas HaMoshiach.

10. And Moshiach's talmidim asked him, saying, Why then do the Sofrim say that it is necessary for Eliyahu HaNavi to come first?

11. And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said in reply, Eliyahu HaNavi does indeed have his coming and will restore all things.

12. But I say to you, that Eliyahu has come already, and they did not have daas of him, but did to him whatever they willed [Mt 6:10]. So also the Ben HaAdam [Moshiach] is about to suffer by them.

13. Then the Moshiach's talmidim had binah that he spoke to them about Yochanan of the tevilah of teshuva.

14. And when they came to the multitude, a man came up to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, falling down before him.

15. And the man said, Adoni, grant rachamim (mercy) on this ben (son) of mine, for he is an epileptic, and suffers horribly; for often he falls into the eish, and often into the mayim.
