2. Matthew 17:1-3
And after six days Jesus took with him Peter
and James, and John his brother, and led
them up a high mountain by themselves.
And he was transfigured before them, and
his face shone like the sun, and his clothes
became white as light. And behold, there
appeared to them Moses and Elijah, talking
with Him.

3. Matthew 17:4-5
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.” He was still
speaking when, behold, a bright cloud
overshadowed them, and a voice from the
cloud said, “This is my beloved Son, with
whom I am well pleased; listen to him.”

4. Matthew 17:6-9
When the disciples heard this, they fell on
their faces and were terrified. But Jesus
came and touched them, saying, “Rise, and
have no fear.” And when they lifted up
their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus only.
And as they were coming down the
mountain, Jesus commanded them, “Tell
no one the vision, until the Son of Man is
raised from the dead.”

6. Matthew 17:12-13
But I tell you that Elijah has already come,
and they did not recognize him, but did to
him whatever they pleased. So also the
Son of Man will certainly suffer at their
hands.” Then the disciples understood that
he was speaking to them of John the
Baptist.
