伊索寓言：蜜蜂与宙斯
The Bee and Jupiter
A BEE from Mount Hymettus, the queen of the hive, ascended to Olympus to present Jupiter some honey fresh from her combs. Jupiter, delighted with the offering of honey, promised to give whatever she should ask. She therefore besought him, saying, "Give me, I pray thee, a sting, that if any mortal shall approach to take my honey, I may kill him." Jupiter was much displeased, for he loved the race of man, but could not refuse the request because of his promise. He thus answered the Bee: "You shall have your request, but it will be at the peril of your own life. For if you use your sting, it shall remain in the wound you make, and then you will die from the loss of it."
Evil wishes, like chickens, come home to roost.
蜜蜂与宙斯
蜜蜂不愿把自己的蜂蜜给人类，便飞到宙斯面前，请求给他强大的力量，可以用针刺死那些接近蜂窝的人。宙斯对他的恶意十分气愤，便使蜜蜂只要刺一回人，蜂针就断了，自己也随之死了。
这故事适用於不怀好意、自食恶果的人。
