The divine comedy — Page 2

He thus to me: "This miserable fate Suffer the wretched souls of those, who liv'd Without or praise or blame, with that ill band Of angels mix'd, who nor rebellious prov'd Nor yet were true to God, but for themselves Were only.
그가 이렇게 내게 말했다: "이 비참한 운명은 칭찬도 비난도 없이 살았던 그 불쌍한 영혼들이 겪는 것이라네, 반란을 일으키지도 않았지만 하나님께 충성하지도 않고, 오직 자신만을 위했던 저 악한 천사들의 무리와 함께.
From his bounds Heaven drove them forth, Not to impair his lustre, nor the depth Of Hell receives them, lest th' accursed tribe Should glory thence with exultation vain."
하늘은 그 광채를 더럽히지 않으려 그들을 그 경계 밖으로 몰아냈고, 지옥의 깊은 곳도 그들을 받아들이지 않으니, 저주받은 무리가 그것으로 헛된 환희 속에 영광을 누릴까 두려워서라네."
I then: "Master! what doth aggrieve them thus, That they lament so loud?"
나는 그때 말했다: "스승이여! 무엇이 그들을 이토록 괴롭혀 저리 크게 통곡하게 만드는 것입니까?"
He straight replied: "That will I tell thee briefly.
그가 곧바로 대답했다: "그것을 간략히 말해 주겠네.
These of death No hope may entertain: and their blind life So meanly passes, that all other lots They envy.
이들은 죽음에 대한 아무런 희망도 품을 수 없다네. 그리고 그들의 눈먼 삶은 너무나 비천하게 흘러가기에, 다른 모든 운명들을 그들은 부러워한다네.
Fame of them the world hath none, Nor suffers; mercy and justice scorn them both.
세상은 그들에 대한 명성을 갖지도 않고 허락하지도 않는다네. 자비와 정의 모두 그들을 경멸한다네.
Speak not of them, but look, and pass them by."
그들에 대해 말하지 말고, 그저 바라보고 지나쳐 가게나."
And I, who straightway look'd, beheld a flag, Which whirling ran around so rapidly, That it no pause obtain'd: and following came Such a long train of spirits, I should ne'er Have thought, that death so many had despoil'd.
그리고 나는 즉시 바라보았고, 한 깃발을 보았는데, 그것은 너무나 빠르게 빙빙 돌아 잠시도 멈추지 않았다. 그 뒤를 따라 너무나 긴 영혼들의 행렬이 이어졌기에, 나는 결코 죽음이 그토록 많은 이들을 빼앗아 갔으리라고는 생각지 못했을 것이다.
When some of these I recogniz'd, I saw And knew the shade of him, who to base fear Yielding, abjur'd his high estate.
그들 중 몇몇을 알아보았을 때, 나는 비겁한 두려움에 굴복하여 자신의 높은 지위를 저버린 자의 그림자를 보고 알아보았다.
Forthwith I understood for certain this the tribe Of those ill spirits both to God displeasing And to his foes.
그 즉시 나는 이들이 하나님께도 그의 적들에게도 모두 불쾌한 저 악한 영혼들의 무리임을 확실히 깨달았다.
