Jane Eyre: An Autobiography — Page 2

English → Korean BY THE AUTHOR PREFACE Level 7/10

I would suggest to such doubters certain obvious distinctions; I would remind them of certain simple truths.

나는 그러한 의심하는 자들에게 몇 가지 명백한 구별을 제안하고 싶다; 나는 그들에게 몇 가지 단순한 진실을 상기시키고 싶다.

Conventionality is not morality.

인습은 도덕이 아니다.

Self-righteousness is not religion.

독선은 종교가 아니다.

To attack the first is not to assail the last.

전자를 공격하는 것이 후자를 공격하는 것은 아니다.

To pluck the mask from the face of the Pharisee, is not to lift an impious hand to the Crown of Thorns.

바리새인의 얼굴에서 가면을 벗기는 것은, 가시 면류관에 불경스러운 손을 드는 것이 아니다.

These things and deeds are diametrically opposed: they are as distinct as is vice from virtue.

이러한 것들과 행위들은 정반대이다: 그것들은 악덕과 미덕만큼이나 뚜렷이 구별된다.

Men too often confound them: they should not be confounded: appearance should not be mistaken for truth; narrow human doctrines, that only tend to elate and magnify a few, should not be substituted for the world-redeeming creed of Christ.

사람들은 너무나 자주 그것들을 혼동한다: 그것들은 혼동되어서는 안 된다: 외양이 진실로 오해되어서는 안 된다; 소수를 고양시키고 높이는 데만 기여하는 편협한 인간의 교리가, 세상을 구원하는 그리스도의 신조를 대체해서는 안 된다.

There is—I repeat it—a difference; and it is a good, and not a bad action to mark broadly and clearly the line of separation between them.

차이가 있다—나는 이를 반복한다—; 그리고 그 둘 사이의 분리선을 넓고 명확하게 표시하는 것은 나쁜 행동이 아니라 좋은 행동이다.

The world may not like to see these ideas dissevered, for it has been accustomed to blend them; finding it convenient to make external show pass for sterling worth—to let white-washed walls vouch for clean shrines.

세상은 이러한 생각들이 분리되는 것을 좋아하지 않을 수도 있다, 왜냐하면 세상은 그것들을 혼합하는 데 익숙해져 있기 때문이다; 외적인 겉모습을 진정한 가치로 통하게 하는 것이—회칠한 벽으로 깨끗한 신전을 보증하게 하는 것이—편리하다고 여기면서.

It may hate him who dares to scrutinise and expose—to rase the gilding, and show base metal under it—to penetrate the sepulchre, and reveal charnel relics: but hate as it will, it is indebted to him.

세상은 감히 꼼꼼히 살피고 폭로하려는 자를—도금을 벗겨내고 그 아래의 천한 금속을 드러내려는 자를—무덤을 파헤치고 납골당의 유물을 드러내려는 자를 미워할 수도 있다: 그러나 아무리 미워할지라도, 세상은 그에게 빚을 지고 있다.
