English Original
A man was hiking in the mountains, enjoying the scenery, when he stepped too close to the edge and began to fall. In desperation, he grabbed a branch of a gnarled old tree growing from the cliffside.
Terrified, he assessed his situation. He was about 100 feet down a sheer cliff, with another 900 feet to the canyon floor below. One more slip would mean a fatal plummet.
"Help me!" he cried out. No answer came. He called out again and again, to no avail. Finally, he yelled, "Is anybody up there?"
A deep voice replied, "Yes, I am here."
"Who is it?"
"It is the Lord."
"Can you help me?"
"Yes, I can help."
"Help me!"
"Let go."
The man looked around in panic. "What?!"
"Let go. I will catch you."
After a moment's hesitation, the man asked, "Uh... Is there anybody else up there?"
中文翻译
一名男子正在山中徒步，欣赏着风景，却不慎太靠近边缘，开始坠落。绝望中，他抓住了从悬崖侧面长出来的一棵多瘤老树的树枝。
他惊恐地评估着自己的处境。他位于一处陡峭悬崖下方约100英尺处，距离下方的峡谷地面还有约900英尺。再滑一次，他将垂直坠落，必死无疑。
"救救我！"他喊道。没有回应。他一遍又一遍地呼喊，但毫无用处。最后，他大声喊道："上面有人吗？"
一个低沉的声音回答道："是的，我在这里。"
"是谁？"
"是主。"
"你能救我吗？"
"是的，我能救你。"
"救救我！"
"放手。"
男子惊慌地环顾四周。"什么？！"
"放手。我会接住你。"
犹豫片刻后，男子问道："呃……上面还有别人吗？"
