KK1-1505 - N-gup mahka na gam hkap ai la (The lazy man who waits for luck, opening his mouth) with English translation

Translation (Tu Hkawng) The story that I am going to tell is about an indolent man who lived in a village and slept all the time while opening his mouth to the sky while waiting for luck. Long long ago, an indolent man who didn't want to work lived in a village. But he prayed a lot. By believing that God will provide him with what he needs, he just prayed a lot. He also prayed every day he opened his mouth to the sky to receive the blessing as he believed that God would put it into his mouth. Although he had been sleeping with an open mouth for many days, he did not receive anything. By that time, his neighbour was working every day. As his neighbour worked every day, the neighbour brought back different things and became very rich. One day, while the slothful man was sleeping, God gave him a dream. God said, " Hey, a slothful man, you said you want my blessing, and then you are doing nothing. How can I bless you? Look at your neighbour as he has been working every day; thus, he got the things that he needs for his daily life." God also said, "If you do not do anything and not prepare a basket to catch it, we could not give you anything as there is no space. As you work, and we will bless you on your action; hence, you will be able to afford it for yourself. If you think that, when you pray, you get them, but if you have not done anything or are not prepared to receive, we cannot give you, or we cannot bless you." While the man was sleeping, God gave him a vision through his dream, "You should pray every day, and you should also need to work." From that day, he realized that "Even though we pray, we must also work," if I do not do anything, I will not get anything. My neighbour was working every day; thus, he was able to afford his daily life. However, I had not learned his epitome, which is why I did not get anything. Since then, he was repentant, and he started working. After that, he became an affordable person for his life.

### 译述（图廓，Tu Hkawng）
本文讲述的是一则关于慵懒村民的寓言：村中曾有一名男子终日张着口仰望苍天，静候好运降临。
很久很久以前，村中住着一名不愿劳作的懒汉，他时常虔诚祷告，坚信上苍会为他奉上所需的一切，因此仅一味仰赖祈祷度日。他每日张口向天，祈求承接神的赐福，深信上苍会将福泽送入他口中。尽管多日来他始终张着口酣睡，却未曾获得任何馈赠。
彼时，他的邻居每日辛勤劳作，凭借劳作带回各式物资，逐渐变得富足殷实。
一日，懒汉在睡梦中得到神的启示："喂，懒汉啊，你口口声声祈求我的赐福，却未曾付出半点行动，我又如何能为你赐福？看看你的邻居，他每日辛勤劳作，因此得以获取日常生活所需的一切。"神继续说道："倘若你无所作为，也不曾准备好容器承接恩赐，我们便无法为你交付任何东西——没有承载的空间。唯有你付诸行动，我们才会在你的劳作之上赐予福泽，如此你方能自给自足。若你以为只需祷告便能获得一切，却不肯行动或未做好接收的准备，我们既无法赐予你什么，也无法为你赐福。"
懒汉在睡梦中通过这个异象领悟到："即便我们虔诚祷告，也必须同时付出劳作。"倘若自己一无所为，便将一无所获。他的邻居每日辛勤劳作，得以维持生计，而自己却未曾效仿这份勤勉，这正是自己一无所获的缘由。自此，懒汉幡然醒悟，开始投身劳作。此后，他终于能够自给自足，过上安稳的生活。
