The Lord said to Moses, "Come up to me on the mountain and stay here, and I will give you the tablets of stone with the law and commandments I have written for their instruction." |
||
13 |
Then Moses set out with Joshua his aide, and Moses went up on the mountain of God. |
||
14 |
He said to the elders, "Wait here for us until we come back to you. Aaron and Hur are with you, and anyone involved in a dispute can go to them." |
||
15 |
When Moses went up on the mountain, the cloud covered it, | ||
16 |
and the glory of the Lord settled on Mount Sinai. For six days the cloud covered the mountain, and on the seventh day the Lord called to Moses from within the cloud. | ||
17 |
To the Israelites the glory of the Lord looked like a consuming fire on top of the mountain. | ||
18 |
Then Moses entered the cloud as he went on up the mountain. And he stayed on the mountain forty days and forty nights. | ||

About eight days after Jesus said this, he took Peter, John and James with him and went up onto a mountain to pray. |
||
29 |
As he was praying, the appearance of his face changed, and his clothes became as bright as a flash of lightning. |
||
30 |
Two men, Moses and Elijah, appeared in glorious splendor, talking with Jesus. |
||
| 31 | They spoke about his departure, which he was about to bring to fulfillment at Jerusalem. |
||
| 32 | Peter and his companions were very sleepy, but when they became fully awake, they saw his glory and the two men standing with him. |
||
33 |
As the men were leaving Jesus, Peter said to him, "Master, it is good for us to be here. Let us put up three shelters—one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah." (He did not know what he was saying.) |
||
34 |
While he was speaking, a cloud appeared and covered them, and they were afraid as they entered the cloud. | ||
| 35 | A voice came from the cloud, saying, "This is my Son, whom I have chosen; listen to him." | ||
| 36 | When the voice had spoken, they found that Jesus was alone. The disciples kept this to themselves and did not tell anyone at that time what they had seen. | ||
