1 And He said to them, Truly I say unto you, that there are certain ones of those standing here, who may not taste of death, until they may see the kingdom of God, having come with power. 2 After six days Jesus takes Peter, and John, and James, and carries them up into an exceedingly high mountain privately alone; and was transfigured before them: 3 and His raiment became resplendent, exceedingly white like snow; as no fuller on earth is able to whiten. 4 And Elijah was seen by them with Moses: and they were talking with Jesus. 5 And Peter responding says to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah: 6 for he did not know what he might say; for they were afraid. 7 And there was a cloud overshadowing them: and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear ye Him. 8 And immediately looking around, they saw no one, but Jesus only with them. 9 And they coming down from the mountain, He charged them, that they should relate to no one the things which they saw, until the Son of man may rise from the dead. 10 And they held the word to themselves, inquiring, what it is to rise from the dead. 11 And they asked Him, saying, that the scribes say, that it behooves Elijah first to come. 12 He responding said to them, Elijah indeed having first come, restores all things: and how has it been written in reference to the Son of man, that he should suffer many things, and be set at naught? 13 But I say unto you, that Elijah indeed has come, and they did unto him so many things as they wished, as has been written in reference to him. 14 And having come to the disciples, He saw a great multitude around them and the scribes disputing with them! 15 And immediately the whole multitude, seeing Him, became excited, and running to Him, seized Him; and He asked the scribes, 16 Why are you disputing with them? 17 And one responding from the multitude, said, Teacher, I have brought my son to thee, having a dumb spirit.
