Adventures of Huckleberry Finn — Page 4
吉姆为此得意极了,
Jim was monstrous proud about it,
他变得几乎不把其他黑人放在眼里。
and he got so he wouldn't hardly notice the other niggers.
黑人们会从几英里外赶来听吉姆讲述那件事,
Niggers would come miles to hear Jim tell about it,
他在那一带比任何黑人都更受人敬仰。
and he was more looked up to than any nigger in that country.
陌生的黑人会张着嘴站在那儿,从头到脚打量他,
Strange niggers would stand with their mouths open and look him all over,
就好像他是个奇人异士一样。
same as if he was a wonder.
黑人们总爱在厨房灶火旁的黑暗中谈论巫婆,
Niggers is always talking about witches in the dark by the kitchen fire;
但每当有人正说得起劲、装作对这类事情无所不知的时候,
but whenever one was talking and letting on to know all about such things,
吉姆就会恰好走进来说:
Jim would happen in and say,
「哼!你懂什么巫婆?」
"Hm! What you know 'bout witches?"
那个黑人就会被堵得哑口无言,只好靠边站了。
and that nigger was corked up and had to take a back seat.
吉姆始终用一根绳子把那枚五分硬币挂在脖子上,
Jim always kept that five-center piece round his neck with a string,
说那是魔鬼亲手赐给他的护身符,
and said it was a charm the devil give to him with his own hands,
还说魔鬼告诉他,靠着这枚硬币他能治好任何人,
and told him he could cure anybody with it
只要对着它说几句话,想什么时候招来巫婆就能什么时候招来;
and fetch witches whenever he wanted to just by saying something to it;
但他从来没说过自己到底念了什么话。
but he never told what it was he said to it.
四周的黑人会专程赶来,把自己有的东西都送给吉姆,
Niggers would come from all around there and give Jim anything they had,
只为了亲眼看一看那枚五分硬币;
just for a sight of that five-center piece;
但他们却不敢碰它,因为魔鬼曾经摸过它。
but they wouldn't touch it, because the devil had had his hands on it.
吉姆几乎已经废掉了,根本没法当个称职的仆人,
Jim was most ruined for a servant,
因为他自从见过魔鬼、被巫婆骑过之后,就越来越自高自大了。
because he got stuck up on account of having seen the devil and been rode by witches.
