28 About eight days later, after he had told them this, Jesus took Peter, John, and James with him and went up a mountain to pray. 29 While he was praying, his face changed in appearance, and his clothing became a dazzling white. 30 Two men appeared in brilliant glory. They were Moses and Elijah, and they began to talk with Jesus. 31 They spoke about his death,9:31. Literally, "departure." which would soon happen in Jerusalem.
32 Peter and the others were asleep. When they woke up they saw Jesus in his glory, and the two men standing next to him. 33 As the two men were about to leave, Peter said to Jesus, "Master, it’s great to be here. Let’s make some shelters: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah." He really didn’t know what he was saying.
34 While he was speaking a cloud came and spread over them. They were terrified as they entered the cloud.
35 A voice spoke from the cloud, saying, "This is my Son, the Chosen One. Listen to him!" 36 When the voice finished speaking, Jesus was there alone. They kept this to themselves, and didn’t tell anyone at that time what they’d seen.
