Devil's Voice | 魔鬼的低语

English Original

The poor country pastor was livid when he confronted his wife with the receipt for a $250 dress she had bought.

"How could you do this!" he exclaimed.

"I don't know," she wailed, "I was standing in the store looking at the dress. Then I found myself trying it on. It was like the Devil was whispering to me, 'Gee, you look great in that dress. You should buy it.'"

"Well," the pastor persisted, "You know how to deal with him! Just tell him, 'Get behind me, Satan!'"

"I did," replied his wife, "but then he said 'It looks great from back here, too!'"


中文翻译

一位贫穷的乡村牧师拿着妻子买的一条价值250美元裙子的收据对质时,气得脸色发青。

“你怎么能这么做!”他喊道。

“我也不知道,”她哭诉道,“我当时站在店里看着那条裙子。然后不知不觉就试穿上了。感觉就像魔鬼在我耳边低语,‘嘿,你穿这条裙子真好看。你应该买下它。’”

“好吧,”牧师坚持道,“你知道怎么对付他!就对他说,‘退到我后面去,撒旦!’”

“我说了,”他的妻子回答,“但接着他说,‘从后面看也很棒!’”
