Matthew 17:1-5 ▼

1 Six days later Jesus took with him Peter, James, and John the brother of James, and led them privately up a high mountain.

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

3 Then Moses and Elijah also appeared before them, talking with him.

4 So Peter said to Jesus, |Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you want, I will make three shelters--one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.|

5 While he was still speaking, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud said, |This is my one dear Son, in whom I take great delight. Listen to him!|
