כל ימיו של יהודה בן טבאי היה משתטח על קברו של אותו הרוג והיה קולו נשמע כסבורין העם לומר שקולו של הרוג הוא אמר להם קולי הוא תדעו שלמחר הוא מת ואין קולו נשמע

All of his days, Yehudah the son of Tabbai would prostrate himself on the grave of that executed [person], and his voice was heard. The people thought to say that it was the voice of that executed [person]. He said to them, "It is my voice. [You can] know [this from the fact] that tomorrow, he (ie. himself) will die, and his voice will not be heard."
