Mateus 17

Jesus’ appearance changed while Moses and Elijah talked with him on a mountain.

1 A week after Jesus said that, he took Peter, James, and John, the younger brother of James, and led them up a high mountain where they were away from other people. 2 While they were there, the three disciples saw that Jesus’ appearance was changed. His face shone like the sun, and his clothing shone and became as brilliant as light. 3 Suddenly Moses and Elijah, who were important prophets many years ago, appeared and started talking with him. 4 Peter saw them and said to Jesus, "Lord, it is wonderful for us to be here! If you want me to, I will make three shelters, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah." 5 While Peter was speaking, a bright cloud appeared and covered them. They heard God speaking about Jesus from inside the cloud. He said to them, "This is my Son. I love him. He pleases me very much. So you must listen to him!"
