OET (OET-LV) And the Petros answering is_saying to_ the _Yaʸsous:
My_great_one, it_is good for_us to_be here, and we_may_make three tents, one for_you, and one for_Mōsaʸs, and one for_Aʸlias.
OET (OET-RV) Peter said to Yeshua, “Teacher, it’s good that we’re here. Maybe we could make three shelters up here: one for you and one for Mosheh and one for Eliyyah?”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἀποκριθεὶς
answering
Here, the word answering indicates that Peter was responding to what he saw. He was not answering a question. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [in response to seeing those things]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive
ἡμᾶς
˱for˲_us
By us, Peter could mean: (1) everyone who was there, including himself, the other two disciples, Jesus, Moses, and Elijah. Alternate translation: [for us all] (2) just himself and the other two disciples. Alternate translation: [for us disciples]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive
ποιήσωμεν
˱we˲_/may/_make
By us, Peter here means himself and the other two disciples, not Jesus, Elijah, and Moses. So, use the exclusive form of that word in your translation if your language marks that distinction.
Note 4 topic: translate-unknown
σκηνάς
tents
The term tents means simple, temporary places in which to sit or sleep. Peter probably had in mind that they would build them from the materials available on the mountain such as tree branches. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that refers to this kind of temporary shelter. Alternate translation: [booths]
9:2-8 This account is tied to 8:27–9:1 both chronologically (six days later) and thematically (9:7).
• The presence of Peter, James, and John (see also 5:37; 13:3; 14:33) might be the fulfillment of 9:1 (“some standing here”). Some interpreters believe that the pre-incarnate glory of the Son of God broke through the veil of his humanity (John 1:14; 17:5) at the transfiguration. It is more likely that this event was an advance glimpse of the Son of Man’s future glory (see Matt 16:28; 2 Pet 1:16-18; cp. Exod 34:28-35; 2 Cor 3:7-18).

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
