Romania: Over night team "Medgidia" 德瑞莎修女在『邁吉地亞』（二）

看他們赤身露體，和他們的房舍，我能做的是什麼，你呢？相機留下我在那裡的身影，你幫我解答。

星期六的傍晚晚我們又去附近的一個小村莊分享，然後趕回來吃晚晚餐，我帶了包麵線（感謝美國馬里蘭州巴爾地摩海外學人莊人樺先生盛情贊助），順便炒了兩包米粉，請他們夫婦和貝蒂吃。大蒜、青蔥和紅燒的口味還算交代的過去。至於糊糊稀趴爛的麵線倒是嚇了印尼的HESKY一跳，唉，難做人，這可是好東西ㄟ。

星期天又是瘋狂的一天，從一早就參加一個在吉普賽社區的新堂建堂儀式，所有附近的教會聯合聚會，一間小小的會堂擠滿了人，整個屋子熱到一個瓶頸，令人窒息，但有許多忠心的年長信徒如老僧入定瀟灑；有大牌牧師從CONSTANTA來，加上第一次的浸禮，敝人還有機會在當中講道大約三十分鐘的信息，一直搞了快五個小時。我經歷了這兩天，我多了許多題材可以分享，而那位牧師是我的翻譯。唉呀，妳也知道中國人心機很深，這個請君入甕的機會我怎麼會放過。那天我的題目是『who is your neighbor after all?』誰才是你的鄰舍？ 取材自路加福音十章那個著名的撒瑪利亞人故事，節錄如下：

Luke 10 25~37
有一個律法師、起來試探耶穌說、夫子、我該作甚麼纔可以承受永生。
And a certain teacher of the law got up and put him to the test, saying, Master, what have I to do so that I may have eternal life?

耶穌對他說、律法上寫的是甚麼．你念的是怎樣呢。
And he said to him, What does the law say, in your reading of it?

他回答說、『你要盡心、盡性、盡力、盡意、愛主你的　神．又要愛鄰舍如同自己。』
And he, answering, said, Have love for the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind; and for your neighbour as for yourself.
耶穌說、你回答的是．你這樣行、就必得永生。
And he said, You have given the right answer: do this and you will have life.

那人要顯明自己有理、就對耶穌說、誰是我的鄰舍呢。
But he, desiring to put himself in the right, said to Jesus, And who is my neighbour?

耶穌回答說、
And Jesus, answering him, said,
有一個人從耶路撒冷下耶利哥去、落在強盜手中、他們剝去他的衣裳、把他打個半死、就丟下他走了。
A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he got into the hands of thieves, who took his clothing and gave him cruel blows, and when they went away, he was half dead.
偶然有一個祭司、從這條路下來．看見他就從那邊過去了。
And by chance a certain priest was going down that way: and when he saw him, he went by on the other side.
又有一個利未人、來到這地方、看見他、也照樣從那邊過去了。
And in the same way, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, went by on the other side.
惟有一個撒瑪利亞人、行路來到那裏．看見他就動了慈心、上前用油和酒倒在他的傷處、包裹好了、扶他騎上自己的牲口、帶到店裏去照應他。第二天拿出二錢銀子來、交給店主說、你且照應他．此外所費用的、我回來必還你。But a certain man of Samaria, journeying that way, came where he was, and when he saw him, he was moved with pity for him,And came to him and put clean linen round his wounds, with oil and wine; and he put him on his beast and took him to a house
and took care of him.And the day after he took two pennies and gave them to the owner of the house and said, Take care of him; and if this money is not enough, when I come again I will give you whatever more is needed.
你想這三個人、那一個是落在強盜手中的鄰舍呢。
Which of these three men, in your opinion, was neighbour to the man who came into the hands of thieves?
他說、是憐憫他的。耶穌說、你去照樣行罷。
And he said, The one who had mercy on him. And Jesus said, Go and do the same.

然後我提出這個問題（ㄟ，當然是英文），『如果今天耶穌來到Medgidia，你覺得他會到哪裡去？他會和哪些人在一起？如果你要跟隨他的腳蹤行「Go and do the same」，他第一個去的地方就是『白宮』，就會是跟那些污穢貧窮的人坐席。你吉普賽人是羅馬尼亞人的鄰舍，韃靼人是吉普賽人的鄰舍，羅馬尼亞人也是所有其他弱勢種族的鄰舍不是嗎？』

豬頭牧師必須要即席翻譯，當我講完了以後還客氣的跟我說『多謝你們的拜訪和分享，願上帝祝福…』；MIRIAM（奧地利）把我拉到一旁碎碎念，『挖咧，你還真敢講，不怕人家變臉阿。』
貝蒂在會堂的盡頭跟我笑，她後來跟我說那段話他翻譯的『版本』不太一樣。也好。

回DOULOS之前，我們坐在牆沿，和年輕人照了一張像，我很喜歡那個自然的感覺，也為這裡的停泊留下一個註腳。這也是Irene最後一個Over night，兩個星期之後她就回國了。
