لأَنَّهُ حَيْثُمَا تَكُنِ الْجُثَّةُ، فَهُنَاكَ تَجْتَمِعُ النُّسُورُ.For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.Matthew 24:28, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
فَوَضَعَ جُثَّتَهُ فِي قَبْرِهِ وَنَاحُوا عَلَيْهِ قَائِلِينَ: «آهُ يَا أَخِي».And he laid his carcase in his own grave; and they mourned over him, saying, Alas, my brother!1 Kings 13:30, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
وَلَمَّا سَمِعَ تَلاَمِيذُهُ، جَاءُوا وَرَفَعُوا جُثَّتَهُ وَوَضَعُوهَا فِي قَبْرٍ.And when his disciples heard of it, they came and took up his corpse, and laid it in a tomb.Mark 6:29, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
