Mark 9:2-13

NSB(i) 2 Six days later Jesus took Peter, James and John up on a high mountain completely alone. He was transfigured in front of them. 3 His garments became brilliant white. Nothing on earth could make them this white. 4 Elijah and Moses appeared before them. They were talking with Jesus. 5 Peter said to Jesus: »Teacher it is good for us to be here. Let us make three tabernacles, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.« 6 Peter and the others were afraid and they did not know what to say. 7 A cloud hovered over them and a voice came out of the cloud: »This is my Son the beloved listen to him!« 8 Suddenly they saw no one near them except Jesus. 9 They came down the mountain. He warned them not to tell anyone what they had seen until after the Son of man had risen from the dead. 10 They kept questioning among themselves what the rising from the dead means. 11 Then they asked him how is it that the scribes say that Elijah must first come? 12 He said: »Elijah does come first and restores all things. It is written that the Son of man should suffer and be treated with contempt? 13 »But I say to you that Elijah has come. They have done to him what ever they wished just as it is written about him.«
