Second Treatise of Government — Page 2
That if even that had been determined, yet the knowledge of which is the eldest line of Adam's posterity, being so long since utterly lost, that in the races of mankind and families of the world, there remains not to one above another, the least pretence to be the eldest house, and to have the right of inheritance:
설령 그것이 결정되었다 하더라도, 아담의 후손 중 어느 계통이 가장 오래된 것인지에 대한 지식은 너무나 오래전에 완전히 사라져버렸기 때문에, 인류의 종족들과 세상의 가문들 사이에서, 어느 누구도 다른 이보다 가장 오래된 가문이라거나 상속의 권리를 가진다는 최소한의 주장조차 남아 있지 않다는 것이다.
All these premises having, as I think, been clearly made out, it is impossible that the rulers now on earth should make any benefit, or derive any the least shadow of authority from that, which is held to be the fountain of all power, Adam's private dominion and paternal jurisdiction; so that he that will not give just occasion to think that all government in the world is the product only of force and violence, and that men live together by no other rules but that of beasts, where the strongest carries it, and so lay a foundation for perpetual disorder and mischief, tumult, sedition and rebellion, (things that the followers of that hypothesis so loudly cry out against) must of necessity find out another rise of government, another original of political power, and another way of designing and knowing the persons that have it, than what Sir Robert Filmer hath taught us.
내가 생각하기에 이 모든 전제들이 명확히 증명된 이상, 현재 지상의 통치자들이 모든 권력의 원천으로 여겨지는 것, 즉 아담의 사적 지배권과 부권적 통치권으로부터 어떠한 이익을 취하거나 권위의 최소한의 그림자라도 끌어낼 수 없다는 것은 불가능하다. 따라서 세상의 모든 통치가 오직 힘과 폭력의 산물일 뿐이며, 인간이 가장 강한 자가 지배하는 짐승의 법칙 외에 다른 어떤 규범도 없이 함께 살아간다고 생각할 정당한 빌미를 주지 않으려 하고, 그리하여 영속적인 무질서와 해악, 소란, 선동, 반란(그 가설의 추종자들이 그토록 소리 높여 반대하는 것들)의 토대를 놓지 않으려는 자는, 반드시 로버트 필머 경이 우리에게 가르쳐 준 것과는 다른 통치의 기원, 정치권력의 다른 원천, 그리고 그것을 가진 자들을 지정하고 알아보는 다른 방법을 찾아내야 한다.
