2 Peter 1

¹⁵ And I will make every effort to ensure that after my departure, you will be able to recall these things at all times.

¹⁷ For He received honor and glory from God the Father when the voice came to Him from the Majestic Glory, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”

¹⁸ And we ourselves heard this voice from heaven when we were with Him on the holy mountain.
