Then there was the preacher who decided to sell his horse. A prospective buyer was impressedwith the animal, but the preacher said, " I must warn you-he only responds to 'church talk'. Gois 'Praise the Lord', and stop is 'Hallelujah"'.

　　传教士决定卖掉他的马。一位欲买马之人看中了这匹马，但传教士说：“我必须警告你----他只懂‘教堂语言’。走是‘感谢上帝’，停是‘哈里路亚’。”

　　"I've worked with horses all my life," said the buyer, "and I've never heard of anything likethis." Mounting the horse, he said skeptically, " Praise the Lord." The horse began to trot. Herepeated "Praise the Lord" and the horse broke into a gallop. Suddenly the buyer saw a cliffdead ahead. Frantic, he yelled "Hallelujah", and they came to a stop a foot from the edge.

　　“我一生都在同马打交道，”买马之人说，“这样的事我还是头一次听到。”他跨上马，将信将疑地说：“感谢上帝。”马开始小跑。他重复说“感谢上帝”，马开始飞奔起来。突然买马者看到前面是一个悬崖。他吓坏了，匆忙喊道：“哈里路亚。”他们在离悬崖只有一英尺的地方停了下来。

　　Wiping the sweat from his brow, the buyer said, "Praise the Lord!"

　　买马之人擦了擦额头上的汗珠，说道：“感谢上帝!”
