skylee 1913 Posted October 11, 2013 at 09:37 PM Report Share First, the sentence does not make sense. I don't pronounce the words when I read in Chinese, so I hadn't realised there is a typo in the sentence until I googled it : it should be 賞, not 上. Second, I think all versions of the bible used by most people are translation. As long as the translation is correct, I don't see any issue. I know the prayer very very well as I said it almost every day when I was a kid. But the words in my version are different (mine was an Anglican Church 聖公會 school). Sagrada Familia is very beautiful. I was so glad that the church (inside) had been completed. I had visited it twice before when the inside still looked like a construction site. 1 Link to comment
