And, after six days, Jesus taketh with him, Peter and James and John his brother, and bringeth them up into a high mountain, apart;

and was transformed before them, - and his face shone as the sun, and, his garments, became white as the light.

And lo! there appeared to them Moses and Elijah, conversing with him.

And Peter, answering, said unto Jesus - Lord! it is, delightful, for us, to be here, - If thou wilt, I will make here three tents, for thee, one, and, for Moses, one, and, for Elijah, one.

While yet he was speaking, lo! a brightly shining cloud, overshadowed them, and lo! a voice, out of the cloud, saying - This, is, my Son, the Beloved, in whom I delight, - Be hearkening to him.

And, hearing it, the disciples fell upon their face, and were caused to fear exceedingly.

And Jesus came near, and, touching them, said - Arise! and be not afraid.

And, lifting up their eyes, no one, saw they, save Jesus, himself, alone.

And, as they were coming down out of the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying - Unto no one, may ye tell the vision, until the Son of Man, from among the dead shall arise.

And the disciples questioned him, saying - Why then do, the Scribes, say, that, Elijah, must needs come, first?

And, he, answering, said - Elijah, indeed, cometh, and will restored all things;

But, I say unto you - that, Elijah, just now, came, - and they recognised him not, but did with him, whatsoever they pleased: Thus, the Son of Man also, is destined to suffer by them.

Then, perceived the disciples, that, concerning John the Immerser, he spake to them.
