突如其來的禮物 The sudden gift


Your word is a lamp to my feet
and a light for my path.
~Psalm 119:105


友人馬突然送我新國際版聖經,實在讓我受寵若驚。我只是在msn上提過,中文版聖經譯得很差,根本不想讀之類的無謂說話,就二話不說送來英語版。

對沒有信仰的我來說,聖經是一部吸引的科幻故事書,雖然只看到創世紀的The table of nations,已覺得不可思議,個個都可以活到九百幾歲喎,挪亞的經歷亦極神奇,我一定會繼續讀下去的。

謝謝你啦小云老師。

Translation for my dear friend Jen.
My friend Miss Ma suddenly present a gift to me, the New international Version Bible. I am flattered!

I slightly mentioned to her via MSN that the Chinese translation of the Bible is really poor. I BS something that I couldn't stand the Chinese translation of it. Having zero desire of reading it.

Few days later, during dinner, she gave me the Bible out of the blue.

To me, someone who are not religious, Bible is an attractive fiction story book.

Despite the fact that I only read till The Table of Nations in Genesis, I already found it amazing. Almost all of the characters mentioned in the story had the life span to 900+ years old!

The adventure of Noah is just like an miracle.

I will keep reading it.

Miss ma, thanks a lot!
