The Scriptures 1998

Matthew 17:5-11 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

5. While he was still speaking, see, a bright cloud overshadowed them. And see, a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is My Son, the Beloved, in whom I did delight. Hear Him!”

6. And when the taught ones heard, they fell on their faces and were much afraid.

7. But יהושע came near and touched them and said, “Rise, and do not be afraid.”

8. And having lifted up their eyes, they saw no one but יהושע only.

9. And as they were coming down from the mountain, יהושע commanded them, saying, “Do not mention the vision to anyone until the Son of Aḏam is raised from the dead.”

10. And His taught ones asked Him, saying, “Why then do the scribes say that Ěliyahu has to come first?”

11. And יהושע answering, said to them, “Ěliyahu is indeed coming first, and shall restore all matters.
