There was a Father who had three sons, they were forever quarreling among themselves.
Ada seorang Ayah yang memiliki tiga Putra, mereka senantiasa bertengkar di antara mereka sendiri.
No words he could say did the least good, so he cast about in his mind for some very striking example that should make them see that discord would lead them to misfortune.
A Farmer was driving his wagon along a miry country road after a heavy rain.
Seorang Petani sedang mengendarai wagon (gerobak yg ditarik kuda) di sepanjang jalan pedesaan yang berlumpur setelah hujan lebat.
The horses could hardly drag the load through the deep mud, and at last came to a standstill when one of the wheels sank to the hub in a rut.
The Young Crab & His Mother
Kepiting muda dan Ibunya
“Why in the world do you walk sideways like that?” said a Mother Crab to her son.
Kenapa kamu berjalan menyamping seperti itu? ”Kata Ibu Kepiting kepada putranya.
“You should always walk straight forward with your toes turned out.”
“Kamu harus selalu berjalan lurus ke depan dengan jari-jari kaki terbuka.”
“Show me how to walk, mother dear,” answered the little Crab obediently, “I want to learn.”
“Tunjukkan padaku bagaimana caranya berjalan, ibu sayang,” jawab Kepiting kecil dengan patuh, “Aku ingin belajar.”
So the mother Crab tried and tried to walk straight forward. But she could walk sideways only, like her son.
Maka ibu kepiting mencoba dan mencoba berjalan lurus ke depan. Tapi dia hanya bisa berjalan ke samping, seperti putranya.
And when she wanted to turn her toes out she tripped and fell on her nose.
Dan ketika dia ingin membalikkan jari kakinya dia tersandung dan jatuh di hidungnya.
