以賽亞書: 1:2-3
神對以賽亞說驢與牛都知道牠的主人,
也知感激主人的餵養. 但我的孩子卻不聽話!
不管我如何做, 他們卻都不認識我.
有一位傳道者他有一次去印度宣教,
做計乘車時看見許多牛在馬路上晃來晃去.
他就問司機這些牛怎麼沒人管,牠們怎麼回家?
司機回答,這些牛都知道回他主人家的路.
很訝意吧! 神早已說過我們不如牛, 不知回家路,
感激神的恩典!

This is what the Lord says: “ The children I raised and
cared for have turned against me.
Even the animals - the donkey and the ox- know their
owner and appreciate his care,
But not my people Israel. No matter what I do for them,
they still do not understand.”
