1. And after six days, Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them upon a high mountain apart.
2. And he was transfigured before them: and his face shone as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light.
3. And behold, there appeared to them Moses and Elijah talking with him.
4. Then answered Peter, and said to Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.
5. While he was yet speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold, a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased: hear ye him.
6. And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were in great fear.
7. And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid.
8. And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus only.
9. And as they were descending the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be raised again from the dead.
10. And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes, that Elijah must first come?
