Mark 9:2-7:
2 And after six days Jesus taketh with him
Peter, and James, and John, and leadeth them up into an high mountain apart by themselves: and he was transfigured before them.
3 And his raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow; so as no fuller on earth can white them.
4 And there appeared unto them
Elias with Moses: and they were talking with Jesus.
...
7 And there was a cloud that overshadowed them: and a
voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him. 8 And suddenly, when they had looked round about, they saw no man any more, save Jesus only with themselves.
