恭讀聖瑪竇福音 17:1-9

那時候,耶穌帶著伯多祿、雅各伯和他的兄弟若望,單獨帶領他們上了一座高山,在他們面前變了容貌:耶穌的面貌發光,有如太陽,他的衣服潔白如光。
忽然,梅瑟和厄里亞,也顯現給他們,正在同耶穌談論。
伯多祿就開口對耶穌說:「主啊,我們在這裡真好!如果你願意,我就在這裡,搭三個帳棚:一個為你,一個為梅瑟,一個為厄里亞。」
伯多祿還在說話的時候,忽然有一片光耀的雲彩,遮蔽了他們,並且從雲中有聲音說:「這是我的愛子,我所喜悅的,你們要聽從他!」
門徒聽了,就俯伏在地,非常害怕。
於是,耶穌前來,撫摩他們,說:「起來,不要害怕!」他們舉目一看,見不到任何人,只有耶穌獨自一人。
他們從山上下來的時候,耶穌囑咐他們說:「非等人子從死者中復活,你們不要將所見的,告訴任何人。」

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 17:1-9

Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. And he was transfigured before them; his face shone like the sun and his clothes became white as light. And behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, conversing with him. Then Peter said to Jesus in reply, “Lord, it is good that we are here. If you wish, I will make three tents here, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.” While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud cast a shadow over them, then from the cloud came a voice that said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased; listen to him.” When the disciples heard this, they fell prostrate and were very much afraid. But Jesus came and touched them, saying, “Rise, and do not be afraid.” And when the disciples raised their eyes, they saw no one else but Jesus alone.
As they were coming down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, “Do not tell the vision to anyone until the Son of Man has been raised from the dead.”
