* And after six days Jesus takes Peter , James , and John , his brother , and brings them apart up into a high mountain * and was transfigured before them , and his face shined as the sun , and his raiment was [as ] white as the light . * And , behold , Moses and Elijah appeared unto them talking with him . * Then Peter answered and said unto Jesus , Lord , it is good for us to remain here ; if thou desire , let us make three tabernacles here : one for thee and one for Moses and one for Elijah . * While he yet spoke , behold , a cloud of light overshadowed them , and , behold , a voice out of the cloud , [which ] said , This is my beloved Son , in whom I am well pleased ; hear ye him . * And when the disciples heard [it ], they fell on their faces and feared greatly . * Then Jesus came and touched them and said , Arise and be not afraid . * And when they had lifted up their eyes , they saw no one except Jesus only . * And as they came down from the mountain , Jesus charged them , saying , Tell the vision to no one until the Son of man is risen from the dead . * Then his disciples asked him , saying , Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first ? * And Jesus answered and said unto them , Elijah truly shall come first and restore all things . * But I say unto you , That Elijah is come already , and they knew him not , but have done unto him whatever they pleased . Likewise the Son of man shall also suffer of them . * Then the disciples understood that he spoke unto them of John the Baptist .
