Plays of Sophocles: Oedipus the King; Oedipus at Colonus; Antigone — Page 7
Did any bandit dare so bold a stroke,
어떤 도적이 감히 그토록 대담한 짓을 감행했겠습니까,
Unless indeed he were suborned from Thebes?
테베에서 사주를 받지 않고서야 말입니다?
CREON.
크레온.
So 'twas surmised, but none was found to avenge
그렇게 추측되었으나, 뒤이어 벌어진 혼란 속에서
His murder mid the trouble that ensued.
그의 죽음을 복수할 자를 아무도 찾지 못했습니다.
OEDIPUS.
오이디푸스.
What trouble can have hindered a full quest,
어떤 어려움이 철저한 조사를 가로막을 수 있었겠습니까,
When royalty had fallen thus miserably?
왕이 이토록 비참하게 쓰러졌는데 말입니다?
CREON.
크레온.
The riddling Sphinx compelled us to let slide
수수께끼를 내는 스핑크스가 우리로 하여금 흐릿한 과거를 덮어두고
The dim past and attend to instant needs.
당면한 문제에 집중하도록 강요했습니다.
OEDIPUS.
오이디푸스.
Well, _I_ will start afresh and once again
그렇다면, 내가 새로 시작하여 다시 한번
Make dark things clear. Right worthy the concern
어두운 것들을 밝히겠습니다. 포이보스의 관심도,
Of Phoebus, worthy thine too, for the dead;
죽은 자를 위한 당신의 관심도 참으로 마땅합니다;
I also, as is meet, will lend my aid
나 또한 마땅히 힘을 보태어
To avenge this wrong to Thebes and to the god.
테베와 신에 대한 이 불의를 복수하겠습니다.
Not for some far-off kinsman, but myself,
먼 친척을 위해서가 아니라 나 자신을 위해,
Shall I expel this poison in the blood;
이 핏속의 독을 몰아내겠습니다;
For whoso slew that king might have a mind
왜냐하면 그 왕을 죽인 자는 뜻을 품고
To strike me too with his assassin hand.
그 살인의 손으로 나 또한 칠지 모르기 때문입니다.
Therefore in righting him I serve myself.
그러므로 그의 원한을 풀어주는 것이 곧 나 자신을 위하는 일입니다.
Up, children, haste ye, quit these altar stairs,
자, 아이들이여, 서두르라, 이 제단 계단을 떠나,
Take hence your suppliant wands, go summon hither
탄원의 지팡이를 거두고, 여기로 불러오라
The Theban commons. With the god's good help
테베의 백성들을. 신의 도우심으로
Success is sure; 'tis ruin if we fail.
성공은 확실하다; 실패하면 파멸이로다.
[Exeunt OEDIPUS and CREON]
[오이디푸스와 크레온 퇴장]
PRIEST.
사제.
Come, children, let us hence; these gracious words
자, 아이들이여, 우리도 가자; 이 은혜로운 말씀이
Forestall the very purpose of our suit.
우리 탄원의 바로 그 목적을 앞질러 이루었도다.
And may the god who sent this oracle
이 신탁을 내리신 신께서
Save us withal and rid us of this pest.
우리를 구원하시고 이 재앙에서 벗어나게 하시기를.
[Exeunt PRIEST and SUPPLIANTS]
[사제와 탄원자들 퇴장]
CHORUS.
합창대.
(Str. 1)
(전절 1)
Sweet-voiced daughter of Zeus from thy gold-paved Pythian shrine
황금 길 깔린 피티아의 신전에서 오신 제우스의 고운 목소리 딸이여
Wafted to Thebes divine,
신성한 테베로 실려 오시어,
What dost thou bring me? My soul is racked and shivers with fear.
내게 무엇을 가져오시는가? 내 영혼은 공포로 뒤흔들리고 떨리도다.
