1 After six days Jesus took with him Peter, James, and John his brother, and led them up a high mountain by themselves.

2 And he was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as the light.

3 And behold, there appeared to them Moses and Elijah, talking with him.

4 And Peter said to Jesus, »Lord, it is good for us to be here; if you wish, I will make here three tabernaclesone for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.«

5 While he was still speaking, 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!«
