Kin ngo¯t, Moïse ngot, Elie ke ngo¯t.
Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias. | |
| [5] |
Mèkwa tchi èkikitot kitchi wapichkan[á]ko¯t [2]

While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him. |
| [6] |
Enonadjin tchi notimowat pichi eji pokkichinowat
ochkijikowag sèkisig.
And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were sore afraid. |
| [7] |
JESOS tchi
piëchiä pië´takinat; otinan tchi: onichkag
kego sèkisèkègon.
And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid. |

tchi tcho woyè owapimasiwan, mitenno JESOS.
And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus only. |

Mèkwa ènichtchauwèwat okwotaki¯g, JESOS
otinan: kego woyè witamauwiëkègon kachi
wapitamêg, ninach nako nichinabè Okwissan
keyapisichik."
And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the dead. |
Notes:
| In the Potawatomi text, letters in brackets could not be read with certainty. Words added to the English translation are enclosed in brackets. The Jesuits constructed an elaborate orthography that utilized diacritical marks extensively. Occasionally, more than one such mark was associated with a single letter. In that event, the second diacritical mark follows the letter with which it is associated in the manuscript. Similarly, when the html symbol set does not include the letter/diacritical mark combination, the diacritical mark is inserted after the letter. In chapter 22, verse 18, /enemê¨kasoýe¯g/ demonstrates both of these situations. | |
| 1 | V. 2. There is a long blank after /èkodjin/, as though the writer knew another word was needed and left room for it. |
| 2 | V. 5. There may be a letter between the /o/ and /t/ in /wapichkan[é]ko¯t/ but I think not. |
