Sunday Class | 主日课堂

English Original

Little Mary was not the best student in Sunday school. Usually, she slept through the class.

One day, the teacher called on her while she was napping. "Tell me, Mary, who created the universe?"

When Mary didn't stir, little Johnny, an altruistic boy seated behind her, took a pin and jabbed her.

"God Almighty!" shouted Mary.

The teacher said, "Very good!" and Mary fell back to sleep.

A while later, the teacher asked, "Who is our Lord and Savior?" but Mary didn't stir from her slumber.

Once again, Johnny came to the rescue and stuck her.

"Jesus Christ!" shouted Mary.

The teacher said, "Very good!" and Mary fell back to sleep.

Then the teacher asked a third question, "What did Eve say to Adam after she had her twenty-third child?"

Again, Johnny jabbed her with the pin. This time Mary jumped up and shouted, "If you stick that damn thing in me one more time, I'll break it in half!"


中文翻译

小玛丽不是主日学校里最好的学生。通常,她都在课堂上睡觉。

一天,老师在她打盹时叫醒她:“告诉我,玛丽,谁创造了宇宙?”

玛丽没有反应,坐在她身后、乐于助人的小约翰尼拿出一根别针戳了她一下。

全能的上帝啊!”玛丽喊道。

老师说:“很好!”玛丽又睡着了。

过了一会儿,老师又问:“谁是我们的主和救世主?”但玛丽在沉睡中纹丝不动。

约翰尼再次“出手相助”,又戳了她一下。

“耶稣基督!”玛丽喊道。

老师说:“很好!”玛丽又睡着了。

接着老师问了第三个问题:“夏娃生了第二十三个孩子后对亚当说了什么?”

约翰尼再次用别针戳她。这次玛丽跳起来喊道:“你要是再用那该死的东西戳我,我就把它掰成两半!”
