1 Seis días después Jesús llevó consigo a Pedro, a Santiago, y a su hermano Juan hacia una montaña alta para estar solos allí.
1 After six days, Jesus took with him Peter, James, and John his brother, and brought them up into a high mountain by themselves.
2 Entonces Jesús se transformó frente a ellos. Su rostro brillaba como el sol. Sus vestiduras se volvieron blancas como la luz.
2 He was changed before them. His face shone like the sun, and his garments became as white as the light.
3 De repente, aparecieron Moisés y Elías delante de ellos, y estos dos estaban hablando con Jesús.
3 Behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them talking with him.
4 Pedro los interrumpió diciéndole a Jesús: “Señor, qué bien se siente estar aquí. Si tú quieres haré tres enramadas—una para ti, una para Moisés, y una para Elías”.
4 Peter answered and said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you want, let’s make three tents here: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”
5 Mientras Pedro aún hablaba, una nube brillante los cubrió. Entonces se escuchó una voz que salía desde la nube, que decía: “Este es mi hijo a quien amo, el cual me complace. Escúchenlo”.
5 While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them. Behold, a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Listen to him.”
6 Cuando oyeron esto, los discípulos cayeron sobre sus rostros, completamente aterrorizados.
6 When the disciples heard it, they fell on their faces, and were very afraid.
7 Jesús se acercó a ellos y los tocó. “Levántense”, les dijo. “No tengan miedo”.
7 Jesus came and touched them and said, “Get up, and don’t be afraid.”
8 Cuando levantaron la vista, no vieron a nadie más allí, excepto a Jesús.
8 Lifting up their eyes, they saw no one, except Jesus alone.
9 Cuando descendieron de la montaña, Jesús les dio instrucciones precisas: “No le digan a nadie lo que vieron hasta que el Hijo del hombre se haya levantado de entre los muertos”, les dijo.
9 As they were coming down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying, “Don’t tell anyone what you saw, until the Son of Man has risen from the dead.”
10 “¿Por qué, entonces, los maestros religiosos dicen que Elías debe venir primero?” preguntaron sus discípulos.
10 His disciples asked him, saying, “Then why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”
11 “Es cierto que Elías viene a poner cada cosa en su lugar,
11 Jesus answered them, “Elijah indeed comes first, and will restore all things;
12 pero déjenme decirles que Elías ya vino y sin embargo la gente no reconoció quién era él. Hicieron con él todo lo que quisieron. De la misma manera, el Hijo del hombre también sufrirá en manos de ellos”.
12 but I tell you that Elijah has come already, and they didn’t recognize him, but did to him whatever they wanted to. Even so the Son of Man will also suffer by them.”
13 Entonces los discípulos se dieron cuenta de que Jesús se estaba refiriendo a Juan el Bautista.
13 Then the disciples understood that he spoke to them of John the Baptizer.
14 Cuando se aproximaban a la multitud, un hombre llegó y se arrodilló delante de Jesús.
14 When they came to the multitude, a man came to him, kneeling down to him and saying,
15 “Señor, por favor, ten misericordia de mi hijo”, le dijo. “Él se vuelve loco y sufre ataques tan terribles que a veces hasta se lanza al fuego o al agua.
15 “Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is epileptic and suffers grievously; for he often falls into the fire, and often into the water.
16 Lo traje ante tus discípulos pero ellos no pudieron sanarlo”.
16 So I brought him to your disciples, and they could not cure him.”
17 “¡Este pueblo se niega a confiar en mi, y todos están corruptos!” respondió Jesús. “¿Cuánto tiempo más tengo que permanecer aquí con ustedes? ¿Cuánto tiempo más tendré que aguantarlos? ¡Tráiganmelo aquí!”
17 Jesus answered, “Faithless and perverse generation! How long will I be with you? How long will I bear with you? Bring him here to me.”
18 Jesús confrontó al demonio y éste salió del joven, y quedó sano de inmediato.
18 Jesus rebuked the demon, and it went out of him, and the boy was cured from that hour.
19 Después de esto, los discípulos vinieron a Jesús en privado y le preguntaron: “¿Por qué nosotros no pudimos sacarlo?”
19 Then the disciples came to Jesus privately, and said, “Why weren’t we able to cast it out?”
20 “Porque ustedes no creen lo suficiente”, les dijo Jesús. “Les digo que aún si la confianza de ustedes fuera tan pequeña como una semilla de mostaza, ustedes podrían decir a esta montaña ‘muévete de aquí para allá,’ y esta se movería. Nada sería imposible para ustedes”.
20 He said to them, “Because of your unbelief. For most certainly I tell you, if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you will tell this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you.
21 Not in this translation
21 But this kind doesn’t go out except by prayer and fasting.”
22 Mientras caminaban por Galilea, Jesús les dijo: “El Hijo del hombre será traicionado y la gente tendrá poder sobre él.
22 While they were staying in Galilee, Jesus said to them, “The Son of Man is about to be delivered up into the hands of men,
23 Lo matarán, pero el tercer día, él se levantará de nuevo”. Los discípulos se entristecieron.
23 and they will kill him, and the third day he will be raised up.” They were exceedingly sorry.
24 Cuando llegaron a Capernaúm, los que estaban encargados de recolectar el impuesto de medio siclo en el Templo, vinieron donde estaba Pedro y le preguntaron: “Tu maestro paga el medio siclo, ¿no es así?”
24 When they had come to Capernaum, those who collected the didrachma coins came to Peter, and said, “Doesn’t your teacher pay the didrachma?”
25 “Si, por supuesto”, respondió Pedro. Cuando regresó donde estaban todos, Jesús se anticipó al hecho. “¿Qué piensas tu, Simón?” le preguntó Jesús. “¿Acaso los reyes de este mundo le cobran los impuestos a sus propios hijos o a los otros?”
25 He said, “Yes.” When he came into the house, Jesus anticipated him, saying, “What do you think, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth receive toll or tribute? From their children, or from strangers?”
26 “A los otros”, respondió Pedro. Entonces Jesús le dijo: “En ese caso, los hijos están excentos.
26 Peter said to him, “From strangers.” Jesus said to him, “Therefore the children are exempt.
27 Pero para no ofender a nadie, ve al lago y saca un pez con un anzuelo. Saca el primer pez que atrapes, y cuando abras su boca encontrarás una moneda estatera. Toma la moneda y paga por ti y por mi”.
27 But, lest we cause them to stumble, go to the sea, cast a hook, and take up the first fish that comes up. When you have opened its mouth, you will find a stater coin. Take that, and give it to them for me and you.”

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 …
