28 And it came to pass about an eight days after these sayings, he took Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain to pray. |
29 And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was white and glistering. |
30 And, behold, there talked with him two men, which were Moses and Elias: |
31 Who appeared in glory, and spake of his decease which he should accomplish at Jerusalem. |
32 But Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep: and when they were awake, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him. |
33 And it came to pass, as they departed from him, Peter said unto Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias: not knowing what he said. |
34 While he thus spake, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them: and they feared as they entered into the cloud. |
35 And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him. |
36 And when the voice was past, Jesus was found alone. And they kept it close, and told no man in those days any of those things which they had seen. |
37 And it came to pass, that on the next day, when they were come down from the hill, much people met him. |
38 And, behold, a man of the company cried out, saying, Master, I beseech thee, look upon my son: for he is mine only child. |
39 And, lo, a spirit taketh him, and he suddenly crieth out; and it teareth him that he foameth again, and bruising him hardly departeth from him. |
40 And I besought thy disciples to cast him out; and they could not. |
41 And Jesus answering said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you, and suffer you? Bring thy son hither. |
42 And as he was yet a coming, the devil threw him down, and tare him. And Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the child, and delivered him again to his father. |
43 And they were all amazed at the mighty power of God. But while they wondered every one at all things which Jesus did, he said unto his disciples, |
44 Let these sayings sink down into your ears: for the Son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men. |
45 But they understood not this saying, and it was hid from them, that they perceived it not: and they feared to ask him of that saying. |
