A wolf was chasing a lamb, which took refuge in a temple.
The wolf urged it to come out, saying, "If you don't, the priest will surely catch you and offer you as a sacrifice on the altar."
To this, the lamb replied, "Thank you, but I think I'll stay here. I would rather be sacrificed any day than be eaten by a wolf."
