英语听书《白鲸记》 第77期

Captain Peleg, said Bildad steadily, thy consciencemay be drawing ten inches of water, or ten fathoms,I can't tell;

噢，法勒船长，你的良心也许能让船多吃上几英寸的水，这和我们关系不大，

but as thou art still an impenitent man, CaptainPeleg, I greatly fear lest thy conscience be but aleaky one;

但是你还是一个不知悔改的人,法勒船长,我非常怕你的良心渗漏;

and will in the end sink thee foundering down to the fiery pit, Captain Peleg.

可你不要还没把大家沉到水里就先沉到了火坑里!

Fiery pit! fiery pit! ye insult me, man; past all natural bearing, ye insult me. It's an all-firedoutrage to tell any human creature that he's bound to hell.

火坑，火坑!你敢这样侮辱我!该死的比勒达，你敢随随便便地侮辱人，你等着下地狱吧。

Flukes and flames! Bildad, say that again to me, and start my soul-bolts, but I'll—I'll—yes, I'llswallow a live goat with all his hair and horns on.

你如果再说一遍，我就绝对不客气了!

Out of the cabin, ye canting, drab-coloured son of a wooden gun—a straight wake with ye!

你这个混蛋!你这个强盗的子孙，滚出去!滚! 他破口大骂，怒不可遏地冲向比勒达。

As he thundered out this he made a rush at Bildad, but with a marvellous oblique, slidingcelerity, Bildad for that time eluded him.

比勒达一闪身，躲开了他。比勒达正如丧家之犬般地躲避着愤怒的法勒船长。
