Ack...help. I can't answer!

My son has a problem for his homework relating to the Creed. I need help.

The question is a fill in the blank:

I believe in Jesus' death and _________.

It is only six letters long and 2nd letter is a "u".

I'm going nuts with my brain, Google and other such nonsense. Anyone? Thanks in advance if you got the answer.

Et Incarnatus Est

I found this difference in translation while searching for some religious items today:
The Scandal of the American Missal
It was interesting on many levels and if you read the summary at the end, it makes sense. I know many Catholics have lost an acceptance of the true presence and this could attribute that flaw in the American Catholic mind. Here are the two translations:

The Tridentine Rite - Who for us men, and for our salvation, came down from heaven, and was incarnate by the Holy Ghost of the Virgin Mary, AND WAS MADE MAN (Here genuflect).

Novus Ordo - For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven:
by the power of the Holy Spirit he was born of the Virgin Mary, and became man.
(Here bow).


Hmm....
