³⁷ This is the Moses who said to the Israelites, ‘God will raise up for you ^(A)a prophet like me from your brothers.’

A New Prophet like Moses

^15 (A)“The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among you, from your brothers—it is to him you shall listen— ¹⁶ just as you desired of the Lord your God at Horeb ^(B)on the day of the assembly, when you said, ^(C)‘Let me not hear again the voice of the Lord my God or see this great fire any more, lest I die.’ ¹⁷ And the Lord said to me, ^(D)‘They are right in what they have spoken. ^18 (E)I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their brothers. ^(F)And I will put my words in his mouth, and ^(G)he shall speak to them all that I command him. ^19 (H)And whoever will ^(I)not listen to my words that he shall speak in my name, I myself will require it of him.

²² Moses said, ‘The Lord God will raise up for you ^(A)a prophet like me from your brothers. You shall listen ^(B)to him in whatever he tells you. ²³ And it shall be that every soul who does not listen to that prophet ^(C)shall be destroyed from the people.’

³⁷ Then Pilate said to him, “So you are a king?” Jesus answered, ^(A)“You say that I am a king. ^(B)For this purpose I was born and for this purpose ^(C)I have come into the world—^(D)to bear witness to the truth. ^(E)Everyone who is ^(F)of the truth ^(G)listens to my voice.”

³ And behold, there appeared to them Moses and Elijah, talking with him. ⁴ And Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good that we are here. If you wish, I will make three tents here, one for you and one for Moses and one for ^(A)Elijah.” ⁵ He was still speaking when, behold, ^(B)a bright cloud overshadowed them, and ^(C)a voice from the cloud said, ^(D)“This is my beloved Son,^[a] with whom I am well pleased; ^(E)listen to him.”

³⁰ And behold, two men were talking with him, Moses and Elijah, ³¹ who appeared in glory and spoke of his departure,^[a] which he was about to accomplish at Jerusalem.

³⁸ This is the one ^(A)who was in the congregation in the wilderness with ^(B)the angel who spoke to him at Mount Sinai, and with our fathers. ^(C)He received ^(D)living ^(E)oracles to give to us.

⁴⁶ Which one of you convicts me of sin? If I tell the truth, why do you not believe me? ^47 (A)Whoever is of God hears the words of God. ^(B)The reason why you do not hear them is that ^(C)you are not of God.”

³⁵ And ^(A)a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is my Son, ^(B)my Chosen One;^{[a] (C)}listen to him!”
