斑鸠与人

详细内容

　　The Partridge and the Fowler
　　A FOWLER caught a Partridge and was about to kill it. The Partridge earnestly begged him to spare his life, saying, Pray, master, permit me to live and I will entice many Partridges to you in repense for your mercy to me."The Fowler replied, I shall now with less scruple take your life, because you are willing to save it at the cost of betraying your friends and relations.
　　斑鸠与人
　　有个人捕捉到一只斑鸠，要杀死他。斑鸠请求赦免，并说：“请饶恕我吧，我会为你捉到更多斑鸠。”那人说道：“你更要被杀，不然你的亲戚朋友将会遭受你的陷害。”
　　这个故事带出的启示就是：那些用阴谋诡计加害亲人的人，必将先得到正义的惩罚。
