Now it happened that about eight days after these words, he took along Peter and John and James [and] went up on the mountain to pray. And as he was praying, the appearance of his face became different, and his clothing [became] white, gleaming like lightning. And behold, two men were talking with him, who were Moses and Elijah, read more.
who appeared in glory [and] were speaking [about] his departure which he was about to fulfill in Jerusalem. Now Peter and those with him were {very sleepy}, but [when they] became fully awake, they saw his glory and the two men who were standing with him. And it happened that as they were going away from him, Peter said to Jesus, "Master, it is good [for] us to be here. And let us make three shelters, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah," not knowing what he was saying. And [while] he was saying these [things], a cloud came and overshadowed them, and they were afraid as they entered into the cloud. And a voice came from the cloud, saying, "This is my Son, [my] Chosen One. Listen to him!" And after the voice had occurred, Jesus was found alone. And they kept silent and told no one in those days anything of what they had seen.

And after six days Jesus took along Peter and James and John his brother, and led them up on a high mountain by themselves. And he was transfigured before them, and his face shone like the sun, and his clothing became bright as the light. And behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with him. read more.
So Peter answered [and] said to Jesus, "Lord, it is good [that] we are here! If you want, I will make here three shelters, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah." [While] he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and behold, a voice from the cloud said, "This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased. Listen to him!" And [when] the disciples heard [this], they fell down on their faces and were extremely frightened. And Jesus came and touched them [and] said, "Get up and do not be afraid." And [when they] lifted up their eyes they saw no one except him--Jesus alone. And [as] they were coming down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them saying, "Tell no one the vision until the Son of Man is raised from the dead."
