1 And after six days Jesus takes Peter, and James, and his brother John, and brings them up to a high mountain by themselves,
1 Y DESPUÉS de seis días, Jesús toma á Pedro, y á Jacobo, y á Juan su hermano, y los lleva aparte á un monte alto:
2 and He was transfigured before them, and His face shone as the sun, and His garments became white as the light,
2 Y se transfiguró delante de ellos; y resplandeció su rostro como el sol, y sus vestidos fueron blancos como la luz.
3 and behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking together with Him.
3 Y he aquí les aparecieron Moisés y Elías, hablando con él.
4 And Peter answering said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good to us to be here; if You will, we may make three shelters here: one for You, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”
4 Y respondiendo Pedro, dijo á Jesús: Señor, bien es que nos quedemos aquí: si quieres, hagamos aquí tres pabellones: para ti uno, y para Moisés otro, y otro para Elías.
5 While he is yet speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and behold, a voice out of the cloud, saying, “This is My Son, the Beloved, in whom I delighted; hear Him.”
5 Y estando aún él hablando, he aquí una nube de luz [que] los cubrió; y he aquí una voz de la nube, que dijo: Este es mi Hijo amado, en el cual tomo contentamiento: á él oid.
6 And the disciples having heard, fell on their face, and were exceedingly afraid,
6 Y oyendo esto los discípulos, cayeron sobre sus rostros, y temieron en gran manera.
7 and Jesus having come near, touched them, and said, “Rise, do not be afraid,”
7 Entonces Jesús llegando, los tocó, y dijo: Levantaos, y no temáis.
8 and having lifted up their eyes, they saw no one, except Jesus only.
8 Y alzando ellos sus ojos, á nadie vieron, sino á solo Jesús.
9 And as they are coming down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, “Say to no one the vision, until the Son of Man may rise out of the dead.”
9 Y como descendieron del monte, les mandó Jesús, diciendo: No digáis á nadie la visión, hasta que el Hijo del hombre resucite de los muertos.
10 And His disciples questioned Him, saying, “Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”
10 Entonces sus discípulos le preguntaron, diciendo: ¿Por qué dicen pues los escribas que es menester que Elías venga primero?
11 And Jesus answering said to them, “Elijah does indeed come first, and will restore all things,
11 Y respondiendo Jesús, les dijo: A la verdad, Elías vendrá primero, y restituirá todas las cosas.
12 and I say to you, Elijah already came, and they did not know him, but did with him whatever they would, so also the Son of Man is about to suffer by them.”
12 Mas os digo, que ya vino Elías, y no le conocieron; antes hicieron en él todo lo que quisieron: así también el Hijo del hombre padecerá de ellos.
13 Then the disciples understood that He spoke to them concerning John the Immerser.
13 Los discípulos entonces entendieron, que les habló de Juan el Bautista.
14 And when they came to the multitude, there came to Him a man, kneeling down to Him,
14 Y como ellos llegaron al gentío, vino á él un hombre hincándosele de rodillas,
15 and saying, “Lord, deal kindly with my son, for he is [a] lunatic, and suffers miserably, for he often falls into the fire, and often into the water,
15 Y diciendo: Señor, ten misericordia de mi hijo, que es lunático, y padece malamente; porque muchas veces cae en el fuego, y muchas en el agua.
16 and I brought him near to Your disciples, and they were not able to heal him.”
16 Y le he presentado á tus discípulos, y no le han podido sanar.
17 And Jesus answering said, “O generation, unsteadfast and perverse, until when will I be with you? Until when will I bear you? Bring him to Me here”;
17 Y respondiendo Jesús, dijo: ¡Oh generación infiel y torcida! ¿hasta cuándo tengo de estar con vosotros? ¿hasta cuándo os tengo de sufrir? traédmele acá.
18 and Jesus rebuked him, and the demon went out of him, and the boy was healed from that hour.
18 Y Jesús le reprendió, y salió el demonio de él; y el mozo fué sano desde aquella hora.
19 Then the disciples having come to Jesus by Himself, said, “Why were we not able to cast him out?”
19 Entonces, llegándose los discípulos á Jesús, aparte, dijeron: ¿Por qué nosotros no lo pudimos echar fuera?
20 And Jesus said to them, “Through your want of faith; for truly I say to you, if you may have faith as a grain of mustard, you will say to this mountain, Move from here to there, and it will move, and nothing will be impossible to you,
20 Y Jesús les dijo: Por vuestra incredulidad; porque de cierto os digo, que si tuviereis fe como un grano de mostaza, diréis á este monte: Pásate de aquí allá: y se pasará: y nada os será imposible.
21 [[and this kind does not go forth except in prayer and fasting.”]]
21 Mas este linaje no sale sino por oración y ayuno.
22 And while they are living in Galilee, Jesus said to them, “The Son of Man is about to be delivered up into the hands of men,
22 Y estando ellos en Galilea, Jesús les dijo: El Hijo del hombre será entregado en manos de hombres,
23 and they will kill Him, and the third day He will rise,” and they were exceedingly sorry.
23 Y le matarán; mas al tercer día resucitará. Y ellos se entristecieron en gran manera.
24 And they having come to Capernaum, those receiving the didrachmas came near to Peter and said, “Your teacher—does He not pay the didrachmas?” He says, “Yes.”
24 Y como llegaron á Capernaum, vinieron á Pedro los que cobraban las dos dracmas, y dijeron: ¿Vuestro Maestro no paga las dos dracmas?
25 And when he came into the house, Jesus anticipated him, saying, “What do you think, Simon? The kings of the earth—from whom do they receive custom or poll-tax? From their sons or from the strangers?”
25 El dice: Sí. Y entrando él en casa, Jesús le habló antes, diciendo: ¿Qué te parece, Simón? Los reyes de la tierra, ¿de quién cobran los tributos ó el censo? ¿de sus hijos ó de los extraños?
26 Peter says to Him, “From the strangers.” Jesus said to him, “Then the sons are free;
26 Pedro le dice: De los extraños. Jesús le dijo: Luego los hijos son francos.
27 but that we may not cause them to stumble, having gone to the sea, cast a hook, and the fish that has come up first take up, and having opened its mouth, you will find a stater, that having taken, give to them for Me and you.”
27 Mas porque no los escandalicemos, ve á la mar, y echa el anzuelo, y el primer pez que viniere, tómalo, y abierta su boca, hallarás un estatero: tómalo, y dáselo por mí y por ti.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
We must now look into and treat of that vision which the Lord showed on the mount. For it is this of which He had said, "Verily I say unto you, there be some standing here which shall not taste of death till they see the Son of Man in His Kingdom." Then began the passage which has just been …

Not then from the Scriptures did they know this, but the Scribes used to explain themselves, and this saying was reported abroad amongst the ignorant people; as about Christ also.

Again, five men are said to have been with the Lord when He obtained testimony from the Father,--namely, Peter, and James, and John, and Moses, and Elias.
Was it in that manner in which the voice came from the cloud, saying, "This is my beloved Son"? For that voice was uttered and passed away, began and ended.

Elsewhere, for example, He saith, "But lest we should offend them, cast an hook into the sea:" but here He saith, "Let them alone, they be blind leaders of the blind: and if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch." But these things His disciples said, not as grieving for those men only, but as being …
