Matthew 17:1-9

11Six days later, Jesus took with Him 2Peter and 3James, and his brother John, and led them up on a high mountain by themselves. 2And He was transfigured before them; and His face shone like the sun, and His garments became as white as light. 3And behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with Him. 4Peter responded and said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good that we are here. If You want, 4I will make three 5tabernacles here: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.” 5While he was still speaking, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and behold, 6a voice from the cloud said, “7This is My beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased; listen to Him!” 6When the disciples heard this, they fell 8face down to the ground and were terrified. 7And Jesus came to them and touched them and said, “Get up, and 9do not be afraid.” 8And raising their eyes, they saw no one except Jesus Himself alone.

910When they were coming down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying, “11Tell the vision to no one until 12the Son of Man has 13risen from the dead.”
