百喻经之三一:雇请瓦师喻
英文:
Once upon a time, a brahman master indented to give a big party. he told his disciple, "i need earthenware for the party. go to the market and fetch for me a mason."
On his way to the mason's home, the disciple came across a man whose donkey was loaded with earthenware for sale in the market. yet all pottery was broken by the animal in the twinkling of an eye. on his return home, the man was crying and getting quite distraught. on seeing this, the disciple asked: "why are you so sad and disappointed?"
The man replied, "i have been making earthenware with all my expedient means after toiling and moiling for many years. i was on my way to the market intending to sell them. but this dumb animal has broken all i had in no time. that's why i'm so distraught."
The disciple was glad to see and hear all this and said, "it's a good donkey. i should like to buy it."
The mason was delighted to sell it. when the disciple rode it back, the master asked, "why didn't you come back with a mason? what's the idea of bringing a donkey here?"
The disciple replied, "this donkey is better than a mason, for it can break things in a split second what a mason has made over a long time."
The master said, "you are stupid and ignorant indeed. although the donkey can break things in a second, it can't even make one pottery in a hundred years."
So are the people at large. those who sometimes receive offerings from their benefactors for a hundred years, give nothing in return. on the contrary, they always do more harm than good. this is held to be true with someone who shows ingratitude.
古文:
昔有婆罗门师,欲作大会,语弟子言:鈥溛倚胪咂鳎怨┗嵊谩H昕晌夜颓胪呤ΑR枋忻僦b
时彼弟子往瓦师家,时有一人驴负瓦器至市欲卖,须臾之间,驴尽破之。还来家中,啼哭懊恼。弟子见已,而问之言:鈥満我员景媚杖缡牵库
其人答言:鈥溛椅奖悖诳嗷辏嫉贸善鳌R枋杏簟4吮锥衤浚媵е辏∑莆移鳌J枪拾媚铡b
尔时弟子见闻是已,欢喜念言:鈥湸寺磕耸羌盐铮【檬彼鳎媵芷啤N医竦甭虼寺俊b
瓦师欢喜,即便卖与。乘来归家,师问之言:鈥溔旰我圆坏猛呤矗坑檬锹课库
弟子答言:鈥湸寺渴び谕呤ΑM呤檬彼魍咂鳎偈蹦芷啤b
时师语言:鈥溔甏笥蕹眨抻兄腔邸4寺拷裾呤士赡芷疲偈拱倌辏荒艹梢弧b
世间之人,亦复如是。虽千百年,受人供养,都无报偿,常为损害,终不为益。背恩之人,亦复如是。
译文:
过去有位婆罗门师,想举办一场隆重的法会,对弟子说:鈥溛倚枰慌咂鳎怨┓ɑ崾褂谩D闳ヌ嫖夜颓胍晃煌呤矗饪傻绞屑先パ懊佟b澞堑茏蛹辞巴呤胰ァU馐庇幸蝗烁现俊⒏褐咂鞯绞谐∩先ヂ舻簦峭仿坎乓换岫墓Ψ蚓桶淹咂鞫即蚱屏恕4巳嘶氐郊抑校睦锇媚眨吞淇奁鹄础F怕廾诺茏蛹耍阄剩衡溛握獍惚景媚眨库澊巳舜鸬溃衡溛矣昧酥种稚魄傻姆椒ǎ矶嗄甑那诳啵阶龀闪送咂鳌@绞谐∩舷肼簦馔菲坡孔忧昕讨涠及淹咂鞔蛟伊耍晕野媚铡b澋茏犹耍闹行老玻氲溃衡溦馔仿空媸呛枚鳎檬弊龀傻亩鳎昕讨渚湍馨阉频簟H缃裎矣Π颜馔仿柯蛳吕础b澩呤芨咝耍⒓淳桶崖柯舾5茏映酥丶依矗Ω肝实溃衡溎阄裁床话淹呤Υ矗饴孔幽芘缮鲜裁从贸。库澋茏哟鸬溃衡溦馔仿孔邮す呤δ兀 瓦师历经久时做成的瓦器,它转眼就能打破。鈥澱馐笔Ω负窃鸬溃衡溎阏庥蕹罩耍挥兄腔邸U饴康娜肥悄芤幌伦哟蚱频模欢词垢话倌瓿焦猓膊荒茏鞒鲆桓鐾咂骼础b
世间的人也是这样,虽则千百年来,一直受到人家的供养,却毫无报偿,专做损害他人的事情,从来没有行过一点善。背恩的人也正是这样。
