寓言故事中英文版–五十步笑百步

【大纪元5月25日讯】

从刖有两军大战。不久,强队胜出,弱队败退。败兵弃甲丢盔,仓惶逃命。

有个败兵,跑了五十步停下来喘气。又有个败兵,跑了一百步才停下来喘气。

跑了五十步的讥笑那跑了一百步的士兵说:“你跑得这么快,一定是个胆小鬼!”

Who is more courageous?

Two armies were once locked in battle. The stronger force soon won. The defeated soldiers abandoned their armor and fled fo their lives.

A certain soldier ran fifty paces before his was out of breath. Another ran a hundred paces before he stopped, panting.

The soldier who ran fifty paces jeered at the fellow who ran a hundred paces, “You must be a real coward to have run so fast!”
