走    进    天    堂    的    裁    缝   

 有    一    天   ， 天    气    晴    朗   ， 仁    慈    的    上    帝    想    到    御    花    园    里    散    散    心   ， 于    是    带    着    所    有    使    徒    和    圣    人    去    了   ， 只    留    下    圣    彼    得    留    在    天    堂    看    家   。 上    帝    临    行    前    吩    咐    说    在    他    外    出    期    间    不    得    有    人    进    入    天    堂   ， 于    是    圣    彼    得    站    在    天    堂    门    口    守    着   。 可    不    一    会    儿    就    听    到    有    人    敲    门   ， 彼    得    问    是    谁   ， 要    干    什    么   ？" 我    是    个    可    怜    的   、 诚    实    的    裁    缝   ， 请    求    让    我    进    去   。" 一    个    平    静    的    声    音    回    答   。" 好    一    个    诚    实    的    人   ！" 彼    得    说   ，" 就    像    绞    架    上    的    小    偷    那    样   ！ 你    一    直    小    偷    小    摸   ， 还    偷    了    别    人    的    衣    服   ， 你    进    不    了    天    堂   。 天    父    说    他    外    出    期    间    严    禁    任    何    人    入    内   。"" 行    行    好    吧   ，" 裁    缝    求    道   ，" 拣    点    桌    上    掉    下    来    的    东    西    算    不    上    偷   ， 根    本    不    值    得    一    提   。 你    看   ， 我    是    个    跛    子   ， 为    了    走    到    这    儿    来   ， 我    脚    上    已    经    打    起    泡    来    了   ， 不    可    能    再    走    回    去   。 我    愿    意    干    最    脏    最    累    的    活   ， 只    求    你    让    我    进    来   。 我    会    背    孩    子   ， 给    他    们    洗    衣    补    衣   、 把    他    们    玩    脏    的    板    凳    擦    干    净   。" 彼    得    被    他    的    话    打    动    了   ， 把    天    堂    的    门    开    了    一    条    窄    窄    的    缝   ， 让    瘦    小    的    瘸    腿    裁    缝    溜    了    进    来   。 彼    得    要    他    安    安    静    静    地    坐    在    门    后    角    落    里   ， 以    免    上    帝    回    来    的    时    候    发    现    了    发    脾    气   。 可    彼    得    一    出    门   ， 他    就    充    满    好    奇    地    到    处    走   、 到    处    看   ， 把    天    堂    各    处    都    看    了    个    遍   。 最    后    他    来    到    一    个    地    方   ， 那    里    摆    满    了    各    种    珍    贵    的    椅    子   ， 其    中    有    一    把    是    纯    金    的   ， 上    面    镶    满    了    宝    石   ， 而    且    比    其    它    椅    子    高    多    了   ， 前    面    还    有    张    脚    凳   。 上    帝    在    家    时    就    是    坐    在    那    张    椅    子    上   ， 观    察    地    上    所    发    生    的    一    切    的   。 裁    缝    站    在    那    儿   ， 久    久    盯    着    那    张    椅    子   ， 根    本    没    心    再    看    别    的    东    西    了   。 最    后    他    忍    不    住    好    奇    地    爬    到    那    椅    子    上    坐    了    下    来   。 这    一    下   ， 他    可    看    到    了    地    上    的    每    件    事    情    了   。 他    看    到    一    个    又    丑    又    老    的    妇    人    在    小    溪    边    洗    东    西    时    将    两    条    丝    巾    悄    悄    抽    出    来    藏    到    一    边   ， 裁    缝    一    看    气    坏    了   ， 一    把    抓    起    金    脚    凳    朝    那    老    小    偷    砸    了    下    去   。 他    一    看    没    法    将    那    凳    子    拿    回    来    放    回    原    处    了   ， 赶    忙    悄    悄    从    椅    子    上    溜    下    来   ， 仍    旧    回    到    门    后    角    落    里    坐    着   ， 装    作    没    有    动    过    的    样    子   。

 天    堂    的    主    人    上    帝    回    来    时    没    有    发    现    门    后    的    裁    缝   。 可    是    当    他    坐    到    椅    子    上    时   ， 发    现    搁    脚    的    凳    子    不    见    了   。 他    问    彼    得    凳    子    哪    儿    去    了   ， 彼    得    说    不    知    道   。 上    帝    又    问    彼    得    有    没    有    人    来    过   。" 没    人    到    这    儿    来    过   ，" 彼    得    回    答    说   ，" 只    有    一    个    跛    脚    裁    缝   ， 这    会    儿    还    在    门    后    面    坐    着    呢   。"

 上    帝    叫    人    把    裁    缝    叫    来   ， 问    他    是    不    是    拿    了    那    张    凳    子   ， 放    到    哪    儿    去    了   ？" 殿    下   ，" 裁    缝    高    兴    地    回    答    说   ：" 我    看    到    一    个    老    妇    人    在    洗    衣    服    的    时    候    偷    丝    巾   。 我    一    气    之    下    就    把    凳    子    砸    下    去    了   。"

" 你    这    个    无    赖   ！" 上    帝    说   ，" 假    如    我    也    像    你    那    样    判    是    非   ， 你    还    有    今    天   ？ 假    如    我    也    像    你    那    样    判    是    非   ， 这    些    椅    子   、 凳    子    甚    至    连    叉    子    也    该    早    扔    没    了   。 你    不    能    再    呆    在    天    堂    了   ， 必    须    立    刻    出    去   。 想    上    哪    儿    上    哪    儿    吧   ， 这    里    除    了    我   ， 谁    也    没    权    治    别    人    的    罪   。"

 彼    得    只    好    把    裁    缝    带    出    天    堂   。 裁    缝    的    鞋    子    也    破    了   ， 脚    上    全    是    泡   ， 只    好    柱    着    拐    杖    到    那    些    好    士    兵    寻    欢    作    乐    的   " 等    候   " 处    去    了   。
