Mrs Cooper: Okay. Alright everybody, it’s time to eat. (Everybody begins to do so) Oh Lord, we thank you for this meal, all your bounty, and we pray that you help Sheldon get back on his rocker. (To Raj and Howard) Now after a moment of silent meditation I’m going to end with “In Jesus’ Name” but you two don’t feel any obligation to join in. Unless, of course, the holy spirit moves you.

bounty
【釋】a generous gift; something freely provided
慷慨的給予

we pray that
【釋】pray: wish or hope strongly for a particular outcome or situation
連起來(lái)解釋為：我們祈禱
【例】We pray that God blesses your life and that you will always feel welcome at our Parish.
我們祝主保佑你永遠(yuǎn)健康，同時(shí)永遠(yuǎn)歡迎你來(lái)我們教區(qū)。
【例】I prayed that James wouldn’t notice.
我祈禱James永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)注意到。

get back on his rocker
【釋】rocker: One of the two curved pieces upon which a cradle, rocking chair, or similar device rocks
本詞組是從一個(gè)習(xí)語(yǔ)引申來(lái)的：off one’s rocker 解釋為： mad【informal】
給出rocker的解釋是考據(jù)off one’s rocker最初的含義而來(lái)，它現(xiàn)在的義表面上看已經(jīng)沒(méi)有跟本詞組真正含義接近的
【例】Anna: How was tennis, Tim?
Tim: Rubbish. I lost to Aidan. I should try and keep a level head and not go off my rocker
when I play...
Anna: Yes. One should never go off one's rocker. Now it's time to eat some squirrel pie.
Anna：Tim，網(wǎng)球怎么樣？
Tim：爛透了。我輸給Aidan了，我應(yīng)該在打球的時(shí)候，盡量保持冷靜，不應(yīng)該抓狂……
Anna：對(duì)。人不應(yīng)該抓狂?，F(xiàn)在是吃點(diǎn)松鼠餡餅的時(shí)候啦
【例】”I have a very naughty cat,” Granny said. “It gets into such mischief that I'm worried it's going to drive me off my rocker !”
祖母說(shuō)：“我有一個(gè)很調(diào)皮的貓，經(jīng)常惡作劇，讓我一直覺(jué)得它會(huì)把我逼瘋了?！?/p>

Meditation
【釋】contemplation of spiritual matters, esp as a religious practice
冥想

don’t feel any obligation to
【釋】obligation: an act or course of action to which a person is morally or legally bound; a duty or commitment
連起來(lái)解釋為：不要覺(jué)得有任何義務(wù)去……相當(dāng)于“don't feel obligated to”
【例】Don't feel obligated to come if you're too busy.
如何你很忙，不必要一定來(lái)。

holy spirit
【釋】The third person of the Trinity
圣靈
