They will kill me, but on the third day I will live again.'” (Source: Uma Back Translation)
- Yakan: “So-then after that, Isa first explained/began to explain to his disciples that it was the will of God, that he should go to Awrusalam and endure many persecutions from the elders and the leaders of the priests and the teachers of the religious law.
