A burglar broke into a house and was skulking as silently as he could when he heard a voice say "Jesus is watching".

He stopped dead in his tracks and listened.

A minute went by and he heard nothing, so he started to move again. "Jesus is watching", came the voice in the dark.

His eyes were adjusting to the light and he noticed a cage in the corner containing a parrot.

"Was that you talking bird?"

The parrot said, "yes".

"What's your name little bird?"

"Clarence", the parrot said.

"Clarence? who would name a bird Clarence?" , the burglar laughed.

The parrot said, "The same person who named the rottweiller Jesus"!

一个夜贼钻进一栋房子里,正偷偷摸摸地走着,这时他听到一个声音说道:”耶稣正看着你呢.”
他立刻就僵在那里,竖起耳朵听.
一分钟过去了,他什么也没听见,于是又开始行动.”耶稣正看着你呢!”声音又从黑暗中传了过来.
他的眼睛已经适应了暗光,看到角落里有个鸟笼,关着一只鹦鹉.
“是你在说话吗?”
鹦鹉说:”是.”
“你叫什么名字啊?”
“克拉伦斯.”鹦鹉说.
“克拉伦斯?谁给鸟起这么个名字?”夜贼笑道.
鹦鹉说:”就是那个把罗威那犬起名叫耶稣的那个人!”
