* Six days later Jesus took with him Peter and Jamesand John , and brought them by themselves up a high mountain apart from the rest . * Here in their presence he was transfigured ; and his clothes also became glistering with a radiant whiteness , such as no bleaching on earth could give . * Moreover there appeared to them Elijah , with Moses ; and they were talking with Jesus . * "Master ," said Peter , addressing Jesus , "it is good for us to be here . Let us put up three tents one for you , one for Moses , and one for Elijah ." * (For he did not know what to say , they were so awestruck .) * Then there came a cloud overshadowing them ; and there came a voice out of the cloud . "This is my Son , my beloved . Listen to him ." * And suddenly as they looked around , they saw no one any more beside them , but Jesus alone . * As they came down the mountain he strictly forbade them to narrate to any one what they had seen , until after the Son of man had risen from the dead . * This order they faithfully kept , questioning among themselves what "rising again from the dead " meant . * So they asked him , "How is it that the Scribes say that Elijah must first come ?" * "Elijah does indeed first come ," he said , "and restores all things , But how is it written about the Son of Man , that he will endure great suffering , and be rejected ? * "Elijah indeed has already come ," he added , "and they have done to him whatever they pleased , even as it is written of him ."
