# The Son of Man

# you say, 'Look, he is a gluttonous man and a drunkard ... sinners!'
|
|

This can be translated as an indirect quote. AT: "you say that he is a gluttonous man and a drunkard ... sinners." or "you accuse him of eating and drinking too much and of being ... sinners." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-quotations]])
