and if ye are willing to receive it, he is Elijah who was about to come;

and they said, 'Some, John the Baptist, and others, Elijah, and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.'

and lo, appear to them did Moses and Elijah, talking together with him.

And Peter answering said to Jesus, 'Sir, it is good to us to be here; if thou wilt, we may make here three booths -- for thee one, and for Moses one, and one for Elijah.'

And his disciples questioned him, saying, 'Why then do the scribes say that Elijah it behoveth to come first?'

And Jesus answering said to them, 'Elijah doth indeed come first, and shall restore all things,

and I say to you -- Elijah did already come, and they did not know him, but did with him whatever they would, so also the Son of Man is about to suffer by them.'

And certain of those standing there having heard, said -- 'Elijah he doth call;'

but the rest said, 'Let alone, let us see if Elijah doth come -- about to save him.'

Others said -- 'It is Elijah,' and others said -- 'It is a prophet, or as one of the prophets.'

And they answered, 'John the Baptist, and others Elijah, but others one of the prophets.'

And there appeared to them Elijah with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.

And Peter answering saith to Jesus, 'Rabbi, it is good to us to be here; and we may make three booths, for thee one, and for Moses one, and for Elijah one:'

And they were questioning him, saying, that the scribes say that Elijah it behoveth to come first.

And he answering said to them, 'Elijah indeed, having come first, doth restore all things; and how hath it been written concerning the Son of Man, that many things he may suffer, and be set at nought?

But I say to you, That also Elijah hath come, and they did to him what they willed, as it hath been written of him.'

And certain of those standing by, having heard, said, 'Lo, Elijah he doth call;'

and one having run, and having filled a spunge with vinegar, having put it also on a reed, was giving him to drink, saying, 'Let alone, let us see if Elijah doth come to take him down.'

and he shall go before Him, in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn hearts of fathers unto children, and disobedient ones to the wisdom of righteous ones, to make ready for the Lord, a people prepared.'

and of a truth I say to you, Many widows were in the days of Elijah, in Israel, when the heaven was shut for three years and six months, when great famine came on all the land,

and unto none of them was Elijah sent, but -- to Sarepta of Sidon, unto a woman, a widow;

and by certain, that Elijah did appear, and by others, that a prophet, one of the ancients, was risen;

And they answering said, 'John the Baptist; and others, Elijah; and others, that a prophet, one of the ancients, was risen;'

And lo, two men were speaking together with him, who were Moses and Elijah,

And it came to pass, in their parting from him, Peter said unto Jesus, 'Master, it is good to us to be here; and we may make three booths, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah,' not knowing what he saith:

And his disciples James and John having seen, said, 'Sir, wilt thou that we may command fire to come down from the heaven, and to consume them, as also Elijah did?'

And they questioned him, 'What then? Elijah art thou?' and he saith, 'I am not.' -- 'The prophet art thou?' and he answered, 'No.'

and they questioned him and said to him, 'Why, then, dost thou baptize, if thou art not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?'

God did not cast away His people whom He knew before; have ye not known -- in Elijah -- what the Writing saith? how he doth plead with God concerning Israel, saying,

Elijah was a man like affected as we, and with prayer he did pray -- not to rain, and it did not rain upon the land three years and six months;
