Mark 9

⁹ As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus admonished them not to tell anyone what they had seen until the Son of Man had risen from the dead.

¹⁰ So they kept this matter to themselves, discussing what it meant to rise from the dead.

¹¹ And they asked Jesus, “Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”

¹² He replied, “Elijah does indeed come first, and he restores all things. Why then is it written that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected?

¹³ But I tell you that Elijah has indeed come, and they have done to him whatever they wished, just as it is written about him.”
