One of the servants gave an opinion which was wrong, and the king didn’t like it at all. So he ordered that the servant be thrown to the dogs.
一天,一仆人提了一个不中用的建议,国王很不高兴。于是,他命令把该仆人扔给野狗们。
The servant said, “I served you for ten years, and you do this to me? Please give me ten days before throwing me to those dogs!” The king agreed.
仆人说,“我服侍了您十年,您却这样对我?在把我扔给那些野狗之前,请给我十天时间吧!”国王同意了。
In those ten days, the servant went to the guard who looks after the dogs and told him he would like to serve the dogs for the next ten days. The guard was baffled but agreed, and the servant started feeding the dogs, cleaning for them, bathing them, and providing all sorts of comfort for them.
在那十天里,仆人去找看管野狗的卫兵,告诉他在接下来的十天里,他想照顾野狗。卫兵很困惑,但还是同意了。这仆人开始喂养狗狗们,清理他们,给他们洗澡,为他们提供各种各样的舒适娱乐。
When the ten days were over, the king ordered that the servant be thrown to the dogs for his punishment. When he was thrown in, we were all amazed to see the ravenous dogs only licking the feet of the servant!
十天过去了,国王命令把仆人扔给野狗,接受惩处。可当他被扔进圈里,大家都吃惊地看到饥饿的野狗们只是在舔仆人的脚。
The king, baffled at what he was seeing, said,
国王看到这一幕后,大为惊讶。国王道,
“What has happened to my dogs?”
“我的狗狗们怎么了?”
The servant replied, "I served the dogs for only ten days, and they didn’t forget my service. Yet I served you for a whole ten years and you forgot all, at my first mistake!"
仆人答,“我只照看了狗狗们十天,他们就没有忘记我的服务。然而,我服侍了您整整十年,您却因为我的第一个过错全部忘掉了。”
The king realised his mistake and ordered the servant to be set free.
国王意识到了他的错误,命令释放了仆人。
This post is a message to all those who forget the good things a person did for them as soon as the person makes a mistake towards them.
这个帖子是一个信息,提醒那些一旦对他们犯了过错,就把对方为他们所做的好事也全忘记的人。
Don’t put out the history that is filled with good because of a mistake you don’t like.
不要因为一个你不喜欢的过错,而把好的历史全盘否定扔掉。
