em Moses and Elijah, talking with him. (4)And Peter answering said
to Jesus: Lord, it is good for us to be here. If thou wilt, let us
make here three tents; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for
Elijah. (5)While he was yet speaking, behold, a bright cloud
overshadowed them. And behold, a voice out of the cloud, saying: This
is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him. (6)And the
disciples, hearing it, fell on their face, and were exceedingly
afraid. (7)And Jesus coming to them touched them, and said: Arise, and
be not afraid. (8)And lifting up their eyes, they saw no one save
Jesus only.

(9)And as they came down out of the mountain, Jesus charged them,
saying: Tell no one the vision, until the Son of man is risen from the
dead.

(10)And his disciples asked him, saying: Why then say the scribes that
Elijah must first come? (11)And he answering said: Elijah indeed
comes, and will restore all things. (12)But I say to you, that Elijah
is already come, and they knew him not, but did with him whatever they

I bear with you? Bring him hither to me. (18)And Jesus rebuked him;
and the demon went out from him, and the child was cured from that
hour.

(19)Then the disciples, coming to Jesus apart, said: Why could not we
cast him out? (20)And he said to them: Because of your want of faith.
For verily I say to you, if ye have faith as a grain of mustard, ye
shall say to this mountain, remove hence to yonder place, and it shall
remove; and nothing shall be impossible to you. (21)But this kind goes
not forth, except by prayer and fasting.

(22)And while they abode in Galilee, Jesus said to them: The Son of
man is about to be delivered into the hands of men (23)and they will
put him to death, and he will rise on the third day. And they were
exceedingly sorrowful.

(24)And they having come to Capernaum, those who received the
half-shekel came to Peter, and
