Luke 9:33-41 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

33. As they were about to part from him, Peter said to Jesus, “Master, it is good that we are here; let us make three tents, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.” But he did not know what he was saying.

34. While he was still speaking, a cloud came and cast a shadow over them, and they became frightened when they entered the cloud.

35. Then from the cloud came a voice that said, “This is my chosen Son; listen to him.”

36. After the voice had spoken, Jesus was found alone. They fell silent and did not at that time tell anyone what they had seen.

37. On the next day, when they came down from the mountain, a large crowd met him.

38. There was a man in the crowd who cried out, “Teacher, I beg you, look at my son; he is my only child.

39. For a spirit seizes him and he suddenly screams and it convulses him until he foams at the mouth; it releases him only with difficulty, wearing him out.

40. I begged your disciples to cast it out but they could not.”

41. Jesus said in reply, “O faithless and perverse generation, how long will I be with you and endure you? Bring your son here.”
