The man wearing linen raised his two hands and I heard him swear in the name of God who lives with no end. He said, ‘That will happen after three and a half years have-passed, after the causing-to-suffer to the people of God.’” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation) - English: “One of them called to the other one, who was wearing linen/white clothes, who was now standing further up (OR, above) the river, ‘How long will it be until these amazing/frightening events end?’” (Source: Translation for Translators)
