But Jesus often went away to be by himself and pray.
After he had sent them away, he went up on a mountainside by himself to pray. Later that night, he was there alone.
After leaving them, he went up on a mountainside to pray.
When all the people were being baptized, Jesus was baptized too. And as he was praying, heaven was opened.
On one of those days, Jesus went out to a mountainside to pray. He spent the night praying to God.
About eight days after Jesus said this, he went up on a mountain to pray. He took Peter, John and James with him.
As he was praying, the appearance of his face changed. His clothes became as bright as a flash of lightning.
But Jesus knew that they planned to come and force him to be their king. So he went away again to a mountain by himself.
