丟了鐵鍬的人寓言故事

　　一個人在他的葡萄園里掘土，有一天，要開始工作時發(fā)現(xiàn)鐵鍬沒了。他以為可能是被某個工人偷走了，就過去質(zhì)問他們，但工人們一個個都否認(rèn)偷了鐵鍬。盡管工人都否認(rèn)了，可他依然不相信，一再堅持所有人都應(yīng)該到城里的寺廟去發(fā)誓，自己沒有犯盜竊罪。這是因為他對小鎮(zhèn)上的神靈沒有什么概念，以為小偷逃不過城里寺廟精明神靈的檢測。他們剛走進(jìn)大門，就聽到了懸賞緝拿從寺廟偷東西的小偷。

　　“好吧，”這人自言自語地說，“我最好還是趕快回家吧。如果這些廟里的神都無法找到盜竊寺廟東西的賊，他們也不太可能告訴我是誰偷了我的鐵鍬。”

　　A Man was engaged in digging over his vineyard，and one day on coming to work he missed his Spade.Thinking it may have been stolen by one of his labourers，he questioned them closely，but they one and all denied any knowledge of it.He was not convinced by their denials，and insisted that they should all go to the town and take oath in a temple that they were not guilty of the theft.This was because he had no great opinion of the simple country deities，but thought that the thief would not pass undetected by the shrewder gods of the town.When they got inside the gates the first thing they heard was the town crier proclaiming a reward for information about a thief who had stolen something from the city temple.“Well，’’said the Man to himself“it strikes me I had better go back home again.If these town gods can’t detect the thieves who steal from their own temples，it’S scarcely likely they can tell me who stole my Spade.”
