1Â Six days later, Jesus took with him Peter and James and his brother John and led them up a high mountain, by themselves.
2Â And he was transfigured before them, and his face shone like the sun, and his clothes became dazzling white.
16Â For we did not follow cleverly devised myths when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we had been eyewitnesses of his majesty.
1Â When Jesus saw the crowds, he went up the mountain; and after he sat down, his disciples came to him.
2Â Then he began to speak, and taught them, saying:
18Â For the message about the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
19Â For it is written, “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the discernment of the discerning I will thwart.”
1Â Hear what the Lord says: Rise, plead your case before the mountains, and let the hills hear your voice.
2Â Hear, you mountains, the controversy of the Lord, and you enduring foundations of the earth; for the Lord has a controversy with his people, and he will contend with Israel.
