* And after six days Jesus takes Peter , James , and John his brother , and brings them up into a high mountain apart , * And was transfigured before them : and his face did shine as the sun , and his clothing was white as the light . * And , behold , there appeared unto them Moses and Elijah talking with him . * Then answered Peter , and said unto Jesus , Lord , it is good for us to be here : if you will , let us make here three tabernacles ; one for you , and one for Moses , and one for Elijah . * While he yet spoke , behold , a bright cloud overshadowed them : and behold a voice out of the cloud , which said , * And when the disciples heard it , they fell on their face , and were intensely afraid . * And Jesus came and touched them , and said , * And when they had lifted up their eyes , they saw no man , except Jesus only . * And as they came down from the mountain , Jesus charged them , saying , * And his disciples asked him , saying , Why then say the scribes that Elijah must first come ? * And Jesus answered and said unto them , * But I say unto you , * Then the disciples understood that he spoke unto them of John the Baptist . * And when they had come to the multitude , there came to him a certain man , kneeling down to him , and saying , * Lord , have mercy on my son : for he is insane , and intensely vexed : for frequently he falls into the fire , and often into the water . * And I brought him to your disciples , and they could not cure him . * Then Jesus answered and said , * And Jesus rebuked the devil ; and he departed out of him : and the child was cured from that very hour . * Then came the disciples to Jesus apart , and said , Why could not we cast him out ? * And Jesus said unto them , kjc @Matthew:17:21 " /> * And while they abode in Galilee , Jesus said unto them , * And they were exceedingly sorry . * And when they had come to Capernaum , they that received tribute money came to Peter , and said , Does not your master pay tribute ? * He says , Yes . And when he was come into the house , Jesus prevented him , saying , * Peter says unto him , Of strangers . Jesus says unto him , kjc @Matthew:17:27 @.
