Saint and Sinner | 圣徒与罪人

English Original

"My friend," said a distinguished officer of the Salvation Army to a Most Wicked Sinner, "I was once a drunkard, a thief, an assassin. The Divine Grace has made me what I am."

The Most Wicked Sinner looked at him from head to foot. "Henceforth," he said, "the Divine Grace, I fancy, will let well enough alone."


中文翻译

"我的朋友,"救世军的一位杰出军官对一位最邪恶的罪人说,"我曾是个酒鬼、小偷、杀人犯。是神恩造就了如今的我。"

那位最邪恶的罪人将他从头到脚打量了一番。"依我看,"他说,"从今往后,神恩最好还是别再多管闲事了。"
