English → Korean CHAPTER II. Level 7/10

Something must be done for them whenever they leave Norland and settle in a new home."

그들이 노랜드를 떠나 새로운 집에 정착할 때마다 그들을 위해 무언가를 해주어야 합니다."

"Well, then, _let_ something be done for them; but _that_ something need not be three thousand pounds.

"그렇다면, 그들을 위해 무언가를 해주도록 하세요. 하지만 그 무언가가 꼭 삼천 파운드일 필요는 없어요.

Consider," she added, "that when the money is once parted with, it never can return.

한번 내보낸 돈은 절대 돌아오지 않는다는 것을 생각해 보세요."라고 그녀가 덧붙였습니다.

Your sisters will marry, and it will be gone for ever.

당신의 자매들은 결혼할 것이고, 그러면 그 돈은 영원히 사라지고 말 거예요.

If, indeed, it could be restored to our poor little boy—"

만약 그 돈이 우리의 가엾은 어린 아들에게 돌아올 수 있다면—"

"Why, to be sure," said her husband, very gravely, "that would make great difference.

"글쎄, 물론이지," 라고 그녀의 남편이 매우 진지하게 말했습니다. "그건 큰 차이를 만들 텐데.

The time may come when Harry will regret that so large a sum was parted with.

해리가 그토록 큰 금액을 내보낸 것을 후회할 날이 올지도 모르오.

If he should have a numerous family, for instance, it would be a very convenient addition."

예를 들어, 그가 식구가 많아진다면, 그 돈은 매우 편리한 보탬이 될 텐데."

"To be sure it would."

"물론 그렇겠지요."

"Perhaps, then, it would be better for all parties, if the sum were diminished one half.—Five hundred pounds would be a prodigious increase to their fortunes!"

"그렇다면, 아마도 금액을 절반으로 줄이는 것이 모든 사람에게 더 나을 것 같소. 오백 파운드도 그들의 재산에는 엄청난 증가가 될 테니까요!"

"Oh! beyond anything great! What brother on earth would do half so much for his sisters, even if _really_ his sisters!

"오! 정말 대단해요! 세상에 어떤 오빠가 자기 자매들을 위해 절반이라도 그렇게 해주겠어요, 설령 진짜 자매라 할지라도요!

And as it is—only half blood!—But you have such a generous spirit!"

게다가 지금 상황은—그저 이복 관계일 뿐인데요!—하지만 당신은 정말 너그러운 마음씨를 가지고 있어요!"

"I would not wish to do any thing mean," he replied.

"나는 비열한 짓은 하고 싶지 않소," 라고 그가 대답했습니다.

"One had rather, on such occasions, do too much than too little.

"이런 경우에는, 너무 적게 하는 것보다는 너무 많이 하는 편이 낫지요.

No one, at least, can think I have not done enough for them: even themselves, they can hardly expect more.

적어도 누구도 내가 그들을 위해 충분히 하지 않았다고 생각할 수는 없을 것이오. 그들 자신조차도 더 이상 기대하기는 어려울 테니까요.
