Children's Prayer | 孩童的祈祷

English Original

Two young boys were spending the night at their grandparents' house. At bedtime, as they knelt beside their beds to say their prayers, the younger boy began praying at the top of his lungs:

"I PRAY FOR A BICYCLE... I PRAY FOR A NEW NINTENDO... I PRAY FOR A NEW VCR..."

His older brother leaned over, nudged him, and whispered, "Why are you shouting your prayers? God isn't deaf."

To which the little brother replied, "No, but Grandma is!"


中文翻译

两个小男孩在外祖父母家过夜。睡前,当他们跪在床边祈祷时,弟弟开始扯着嗓子大声祷告:

“我祈求一辆自行车……我祈求一台新的任天堂游戏机……我祈求一台新的录像机……”

他的哥哥靠过来,轻轻推了推他,低声说:“你为什么喊那么大声?上帝又不聋。”

弟弟回答道:“上帝是不聋,但奶奶聋啊!”
