Matthew 17:1-13

1And after sixG1803 daysG2250 JesusG2424 takesG3880 with [him] PeterG4074, and JamesG2385, and JohnG2491 his brotherG80, and brings them up into a highG5308 mountainG3735 apart.

2And he was transfigured before them. And his faceG4383 shoneG2989 as the sunG2246, and his garmentsG2440 becameG1096 whiteG3022 as the lightG5457;

3and lo, MosesG3475 and Elias appeared to them talkingG4814 with him.

4And PeterG4074 answeringG611 saidG3004 to JesusG2424, LordG2962, it isG1510 goodG2570 we should beG1510 hereG5602. If thou wilt, let us makeG4160 hereG5602 threeG5140 tabernaclesG4633: for thee oneG1520, and for MosesG3475 oneG1520, and oneG1520 for Elias.

5While he wasG1510 stillG2089 speakingG2980, beholdG2400, a bright cloudG3507 overshadowedG1982 them, and lo, a voiceG5456 out of the cloudG3507, sayingG3004, This isG1510 my belovedG27 SonG5207, in whom I have found my delight: hearG191 him.

6And the disciplesG3101 hearingG191 [it] fellG4098 upon their facesG4383, and were greatlyG4970 terrified.

7And JesusG2424 comingG4334 to [them] touchedG681 them, and saidG3004, RiseG1453 up, and be not terrified.

8And liftingG1869 up their eyesG3788, they sawG3708 no oneG3762 but JesusG2424 aloneG3441.

9And as they descendedG2597 from the mountainG3735, JesusG2424 charged them, sayingG3004, TellG3004 the visionG3705 to no oneG3367, until the SonG5207 of manG444 be risenG1453 up from among [the] deadG3498.

10And [his] disciplesG3101 demanded of him sayingG3004, WhyG5101 then sayG3004 the scribesG1122 that Elias must firstG4413 have comeG2064?

11And he answeringG611 saidG3004 to them, Elias indeed comesG2064 first and will restore all thingsG3956.

12But I sayG3004 unto you that Elias has alreadyG2235 comeG2064, and they have not knownG1921 him, but have done unto him whatever they would. ThusG3779 alsoG2532 the SonG5207 of manG444 is about to sufferG3958 from them.

13ThenG5119 the disciplesG3101 understoodG4920 that he spokeG3004 to them of JohnG2491 the baptistG910.
