Eyewitnesses of Jesus
16 For we did not make known to you the (A)power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, following cleverly devised (B)myths, but being (C)eyewitnesses of His majesty. 17 For when He received honor and glory from God the Father, such an [a](D)utterance as this was [b]made to Him by the (E)Majestic Glory, “This is My beloved Son with whom I am well-pleased”— 18 and we ourselves heard this [c]utterance made from heaven when we were with Him on the (F)holy mountain.

Christ's Glory and the Prophetic Word
16 For we did not follow (A)cleverly devised (B)myths when we made known to you (C)the power and (D)coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but (E)we were eyewitnesses of his majesty. 17 For when he received honor and glory from God the Father, and the voice was borne to him by the Majestic Glory, (F)“This is my beloved Son,[a] with whom I am well pleased,” 18 we ourselves heard this very voice borne from heaven, for we were with him on (G)the holy mountain.
