1 After six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother up into a high mountain alone.

2 While they watched, Jesus appearance changed transformedtransfigured in their presence. His face was as bright as the sun and his clothes became as white as the light.

3 Moses and Elijah appeared, and they were talking to him.

4 Peter told Jesus: »Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you want, let us make three tents here: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.«

5 While he was still speaking, a bright cloud overshadowed them. A voice came out of the cloud, saying: »This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Listen to him.«
