mountain to pray.

9:29. And whilst he prayed, the shape of his countenance was altered and
his raiment became white and glittering.

9:30. And behold two men were talking with him. And they were Moses and
Elias,

9:31. Appearing in majesty. And they spoke of his decease that he should
accomplish in Jerusalem.

9:32. But Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep. And
waking, they saw his glory and the two men that stood with him.

9:33. And it came to pass that, as they were departing from him, Peter
saith to 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.

9:34. And as he spoke these things, there came a cloud and overshadowed
