"But I say to you truthfully, ^(C1)there are some of those standing here who will not taste death until they see the kingdom of God."

^(C1)About eight days after these sayings, He took along ^(C2)Peter, John, and James, and ^(C3)went up on the mountain ^(C4)to pray.

And while He was ^(C1)praying, the appearance of His face ^(C2)became different, and His clothing became white and ^(F1)gleaming.

And behold, two men were talking with Him; and they were Moses and Elijah,

who, appearing in ^(F1)glory, were speaking of His ^(C1)departure, which He was about to accomplish at Jerusalem.

Now Peter and his companions ^(C1)had been overcome with sleep; but when they were fully awake, they saw His glory and the two men who were standing with Him.

And as ^(F1)these two men were leaving Him, Peter said to Jesus, "^(C1)Master, it is good that we are here; and ^(C2)let's make three ^(F2)tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah"—^(C3)not realizing what he was saying.

But while he was saying this, a cloud ^(F1)formed and began to overshadow them; and they were afraid as they entered the cloud.

And then ^(C1)a voice came from the cloud, saying, "^(C2)This is My Son, My Chosen One; listen to Him!"

And when the voice ^(F1)had spoken, Jesus was found alone. And ^(C1)they kept silent, and reported to no one in those days any of the things which they had seen.
