1 Seis dias depois tomou Jesus consigo a Pedro e aos irmãos, Tiago e João, e levou-os a sós a um alto monte.

2 Foi transfigurado diante deles; o seu rosto resplandeceu como o sol, e as suas vestes tornaram-se brancas como a luz.

3 Eis que lhes apareceram Moisés e Elias falando com ele.

4 Pedro disse a Jesus: Senhor, bom é estarmos aqui; se queres, farei aqui três tabernáculos: um para ti, outro para Moisés e outro para Elias.

5 Falava ele ainda, quando uma nuvem luminosa os envolveu; e da nuvem saiu uma voz, dizendo: Este é o meu Filho dileto, em quem me agrado; ouvi-o.

1 And after six days Jesus takes with him Peter, and James, and John, his brother, and makes them go up with him into a high mountain by themselves.

2 And he was changed in form before them; and his face was shining like the sun, and his clothing became white as light.

3 And Moses and Elijah came before their eyes, talking with him.

4 And Peter made answer and said to Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if you will let me, I will make here three tents, one for you, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.

5 While he was still talking, a bright cloud came over them: and a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my dearly loved Son, with whom I am well pleased; give ear to him.
