Mark 9:2-13

Revised Geneva Translation

² And six days later, Jesus took with Him Peter, and James, and John, and brought them up into a high mountain, out of the way, alone. And His shape was changed before them.

³ And His clothing shined, and was very white, as snow; whiter than anyone in the world could bleach them.

⁴ And Elijah appeared to them, with Moses. And they were talking with Jesus.

⁵ Then Peter answered, and said to Jesus, “Master, it is good for us to be here. Let us make three tabernacles; one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”

⁶ Yet he did not know what he said. For they were afraid.

⁷ And there was a cloud that shadowed them. And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is My beloved Son. Hear Him.”

⁸ And suddenly they looked around and saw no one, except Jesus.

⁹ And as they came down from the mountain, He instructed them to tell no one what they had seen until the Son of Man had risen from the dead again.

¹⁰ So they kept that matter to themselves and asked each another what the ‘rising from the dead again’ might mean.

¹¹ Also they asked Him, saying, “Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”

¹² And He answered, and said to them, “Elijah truly shall come first, and restore all things. And as it is written of the Son of Man, He must suffer many things and be rejected.

¹³ “But I say to you, that Elijah has come. And they have done to him whatever they would, as it is written of him.”
