- About eight days after he said this, he took Peter, John, and James and went up the mountain to pray.
- While he was praying his face changed in appearance and his clothing became dazzling white.
- And behold, two men were conversing with him, Moses and Elijah,
- who appeared in glory and spoke of his exodus that he was going to accomplish in Jerusalem.
- Peter and his companions had been overcome by sleep, but becoming fully awake, they saw his glory and the two men standing with him.
- As they were about to part from him, Peter said to Jesus, "Master, it is good that we are here; let us make three tents, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah." But he did not know what he was saying.
- While he was still speaking, a cloud came and cast a shadow over them, and they became frightened when they entered the cloud.
- Then from the cloud came a voice that said, "This is my chosen Son; listen to him."
- After the voice had spoken, Jesus was found alone. They fell silent and did not at that time tell anyone what they had seen.
