Matthew 17:1–4

THE TRANSFIGURATION

17 After six daysz Jesus took Peter, James, and his brother John and led them up on a high mountain by themselves.aa 2 He was transfigured in front of them, and his face shone like the sun; his clothes became as white as the light.a 3 Suddenly, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with him. 4 Then Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, it’s good for us to be here. If you want, I will set upA three shelters here: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”b
