Mark 9:6-10

⁶He and James and John were afraid, they were ignorant about right words.

⁷At that time a cloud came and covered them. God said to them, from the cloud, “This is my own child, I love him, Listen to him.”

⁸They quickly looked around, they did not see the two leaders from long ago. They saw only Jesus.

⁹As they were descending (from the hill) Jesus told them sternly, “You have seen me, I was in the brightness, you saw Moses and Elijah, God spoke to you from the cloud. Do not tell the others. Later after I die I will get up alive. After that you can tell them.”

¹⁰In response to his word they did not talk to the others. Only they discussed it secretly with each other. “Why did he tell us that word, 'After I die I will get up alive'?” They were puzzling.
