WPNT(i)
1 Now after six days Jesus takes Peter, James and his brother John and leads them up on a high mountain, in private.
2 And He was transfigured before them and his face shone like the sun, while His clothes became as white as the light.
3 When wow, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, conversing with Him.
4 Then Peter reacted and said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good for us to be here; if you wish, let us make three booths: one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.”
5 While he was still speaking a brilliant cloud overshadowed them and, double wow, a Voice came out of the cloud saying: “This is my beloved Son in whom I am always well pleased. Hear Him!”
6 As the disciples heard it they fell on their faces and were greatly afraid.
7 Then Jesus came and touched them and said, “Get up, don’t be afraid”.
8 So lifting up their eyes they saw no one but Jesus only.
9 As they were coming down from the mountain Jesus commanded them saying, “Tell no one the vision until the Son of the Man is risen from the dead”.
10 So His disciples questioned Him saying, “Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”
11 In answer Jesus said to them: “Elijah is indeed coming first, and he will restore all things.
12 But I say to you that ‘Elijah’ has come already, and they did not recognize him, but did to him whatever they wished. Thus also the Son of the Man is about to suffer at their hands.”
13 Then the disciples understood that He spoke to them of John the Baptizer.
