The New World Translation places a comma after the word 'today', dividing it into two separate phrases, ``I tell you today'' and ``you will be with me in Paradise''. This differs from standard translations of this verse as ``I tell you today you will be with me in Paradise''. Based on scriptures such as Matthew 12:40, 27:63, Mark 8:31 and 9:31, Witnesses believe Jesus' expectation that _he_would be bodily resurrected after three days precluded his being in paradise on the same day that he died. <sep>, Pronoun: he
