Matthew 17:1–9 (KJV) – The Transfiguration of Jesus
After six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John up a high mountain by themselves. There He was transfigured before them: His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light.
Suddenly, Moses and Elijah appeared, talking with Jesus.
Peter said,
"Lord, it is good for us to be here. If thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, one for Moses, and one for Elias."
While he was still speaking, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud declared:
"This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him."
The disciples fell on their faces in fear. Jesus came, touched them, and said,
"Arise, and be not afraid."
When they looked up, they saw Jesus only.
As they came down the mountain, Jesus commanded them:
"Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the dead.
