Luke 9:28-36

Disciples’ Literal New Testament

Three Disciples See Jesus Transformed, And Hear God Tell Them To Listen To Jesus

²⁸ And it came about, about eight days after these words, that having taken-along Peter and John and James, He went up on the mountain to pray. ²⁹ And during His praying the appearance of His face became different, and His clothing became white, while gleaming-out. ³⁰ And behold, two men were talking-with Him, who were Moses and Elijah— ³¹ who, having appeared in glory, were speaking of His departure which He was about to bring-to-fulfillment^[a] in Jerusalem. ³² Now Peter and the ones with him had been weighed-down with sleep. But having fully-awakened, they saw His glory and the two men standing-with Him. ³³ And it came about during their parting from Him, that Peter said to Jesus, “Master, it is good that we are here. And let us make three dwellings^[b]; one for You, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah”— not knowing what he was saying. ³⁴ And while he was saying these things, there came-to-be a cloud. And it was overshadowing^[c] them. And they became afraid at their entering into the cloud. ³⁵ And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is My chosen Son. Be listening-to Him”. ³⁶ And at the voice coming, Jesus was found alone. And they kept-silent, and reported to no one during those days anything of the things which they had seen.
