Mark 9:2-13

2Six days later Jesus took with him Peter, James, and John and led them alone up a high mountain privately. And he was transfigured before them,

3and his clothes became radiantly white, more so than any launderer in the world could bleach them.

4Then Elijah appeared before them along with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.

5So Peter said to Jesus, “Rabbi, it is good for us to be here. Let us make three shelters – one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”

6(For they were afraid, and he did not know what to say.)

7Then a cloud overshadowed them, and a voice came from the cloud, “This is my one dear Son. Listen to him!”

8Suddenly when they looked around, they saw no one with them any more except Jesus.

9As they were coming down from the mountain, he gave them orders not to tell anyone what they had seen until after the Son of Man had risen from the dead.

10They kept this statement to themselves, discussing what this rising from the dead meant.

11Then they asked him, “Why do the experts in the law say that Elijah must come first?”

12He said to them, “Elijah does indeed come first, and restores all things. And why is it written that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be despised?

13But I tell you that Elijah has certainly come, and they did to him whatever they wanted, just as it is written about him.”
