Two Travelers & a Bear (Dua Pengembara dan Beruang)

 

Two Men were traveling in company through a forest, when, all at once, a huge Bear crashed out of the brush near them.
Dua orang sahabat menempuh perjalanan bersama melewati hutan yang lebat. Tiba-tiba, dari balik rimbunan semak, muncullah seekor beruang besar yang di dekat mereka.

One of the Men, thinking of his own safety, climbed a tree. The other, unable to fight the savage beast alone, threw himself on the ground and lay still, as if he were dead.

Salah seorang dari mereka, hanya memikirkan keselamatannya sendiri, memanjat pohon. yang seorang lagi, tak mampu melawan binatang buas itu seorang diri, ia merebahkan diri di tanah tanpa bergerak dan berpura-pura mati

He had heard that a Bear will not touch a dead body. It must have been true, for the Bear snuffed at the Man's head awhile, and then, seeming to be satisfied that he was dead, walked away.

Dia pernah mendengar bahwa beruang enggan menyentuh tubuh yang tak bernyawa. Benarlah adanya, beruang itu mengendus-endus kepala pria itu beberapa lama, namun akhirnya, yakin bahwa yang dihadapinya hanyalah bangkai, ia pun pergi lenyap ke dalam hutan.

The Man in the tree climbed down. "It looked just as if that Bear whispered in your ear," he said. "What did he tell you?" he added.

Pria yang bersembunyi di atas pohon turun menghampiri sahabatnya. “Sepertinya tadi beruang itu berbisik sesuatu di telingamu.” Ucapnya, “Apa yang ia katakan?” tambahnya.

 "He said that it was not at all wise to keep company with a fellow who would desert his friend in a moment of danger."

“Ia berkata bahwa sungguh tidak bijaksana jika kita bersahabat dengan orang yang tega meninggalkan kawannya dalam keadaan bahaya.”
