12:38 The religious leaders ask for a sign

(Mark 8:11-12, Luke 11:29-32)

38[ref]Then some of the teachers of the law and some from the Pharisees’ party responded to him, “Teacher, we want to see a sign from you.”

39[ref]It’s an evil and adulterous generation that’s looking for a sign,answered Yeshua, “and no sign will be given to it apart from the sign of the prophet Yonah. 40[ref]Because just like Yonah was in the belly of the huge fish for three days and three nights, in the same way humanity’s child will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. 41[ref]The inhabitants of Nineveh will stand up and condemn this generation on judgement day, because they turned from their sins when Yonah preached, and look, now there’s one here who’s greater than Yonah. 42[ref]The queen of the south will get up and condemn this generation on judgement day, because she travelled a great distance to hear King Solomon’s wisdom, and look, now there’s one here who’s greater than Solomon.


38Then some of_the scribes and Farisaios_party answered to_him saying:
Teacher, we_are_wanting to_see a_sign from you.
39But he answering said to_them, A_ evil and adulterous _Generation is_seeking_after a_sign, and a_sign will_ not _be_being_given to_it, except not/lest the sign of_Yōnas/(Yōnāh) the prophet.
40For/Because as Yōnas was in the belly of_the huge_fish three days and three nights, thus the son of_ the _man will_be three days and three nights in the heart of_the earth.
41The_ Nineuitaʸs/(ones_from_Nīnəvēh) _men will_be_standing_up in the judgment with the this generation, and they_will_be_condemning it, because they_repented at the proclamation of_Yōnas, and see, ^one_greater than Yōnas is here.
42The_queen of_the_south will_be_being_raised in the judgment with the this generation, and will_be_condemning it, because she_came from the ends of_the earth to_hear the wisdom of_Solomōn/(Shəlmoh), and see, ^one_greater than Solomōn is here.
