Mark 9:2-10

2After six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John and led them up a high mountain by themselves to be alone. He was transfigured in front of them,

3and his clothes became dazzling — extremely white as no launderer on earth could whiten them.

4Elijah appeared to them with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.

5Peter said to Jesus, “Rabbi, it’s good for us to be here. Let’s set up three shelters: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah” —

6because he did not know what to say, since they were terrified.

7A cloud appeared, overshadowing them, and a voice came from the cloud: “This is my beloved Son; listen to him!”

8Suddenly, looking around, they no longer saw anyone with them except Jesus.

9As they were coming down the mountain, he ordered them to tell no one what they had seen until the Son of Man had risen from the dead.

10They kept this word to themselves, questioning what “rising from the dead” meant.
