The Transfiguration

1 aSix° days° later° Jesus° *took° with Him bPeter° and IJames° and John° his brother°, and *led° them up on a high° mountain° by themselves°. 2 And He was transfigured° before° them; and His face° shone° like° the sun°, and His garments° became° as white° as light°. 3 And behold°, Moses° and Elijah° appeared° to them, talking° with Him. 4 Peter° said° to Jesus°, “Lord°, it is good° for us to be here°; if° You wish°, aI will make° three° Itabernacles° here°, one° for You, and one° for Moses°, and one° for Elijah°.” 5 While he was still° speaking°, a bright° cloud° overshadowed° them, and behold°, aa voice° out of the cloud° said°, “bThis° is My beloved° Son°, with whom° I am° well-pleased°; listen° to Him!” 6 When the disciples° heard° [this], they fell° Iface° down to the ground and were terrified°. 7 And Jesus° came° to [them] and touched° them and said°, “Get° up, and ado not be afraid°.” 8 And lifting° up their eyes°, they saw° no° one° except° Jesus° Himself° alone°.
