Chief Justice Roberts, Vice-President Harris

首席法官約翰·羅伯茨、副總統賀錦麗

Speaker Pelosi, Leader Schumer Leader Schumer, Leader McConnell,  

Vice-President Pence. My distinguished guests, my fellow Americans. 

This is democracy's day. A day of history and hope of renew and resolve  

Through a crucible for the ages, America has been tested a new and America has risen to the challenge.

Today we celebrate the triumph not of a candidate but of a cause, a cause of democracy.

The people - the will of the people - has been heard, and the will of the people has been heeded.

We've learned again that democracy is precious, democracy is fragile and, at this hour my friends, democracy has prevailed.

So now on this hallowed ground where just a few days ago violence sought to shake the capital's very foundation

we come together as one nation under God - indivisible - to carry out the peaceful transfer of power as we have for more than two centuries.

As we look ahead in our uniquely American way, restless, bold, optimistic, and set our sights on the nation we know we can be and we must be.

但美國仍臨危不亂 勇敢迎接挑戰

I  thank them from the bottom of my heart.  

我們慶祝的並非美國總統候選人所獲得的勝利

And I know the resilience of our Constitution and the strength, the strength of our nation,

as does President Carter, who I spoke with last night who cannot be with us today 

but whom we salute for his lifetime in service

I've just taken a sacred oath each of those patriots have taken.

The oath first sworn by George washington.

But the American story depends not on any one of us, not on some of us, but on all of us.

On we the people who seek a more perfect union. This is a great nation, we are good people.

And over the centuries through storm and strife in peace and in war we've come so far.

We'll press forward with speed and urgency for we have much to do in this winter of peril and significant possibility.

Much to do, much to heal, much to restore, much to build and much to gain.

Few people in our nation's history have been more challenged

or found a time more challenging more difficult  than the time we're in now.

作為在上帝之下不可分割的一個國家

A once in a century virus that silently stalks the country  has taken as many lives in one year.

我們一起進行了和平的政權轉移

就如同美國兩個多世紀以來的做法

Hundreds of thousands of businesses closed.

永不停歇 勇敢 樂觀地向前瞻望

A cry for racial justice, some 400 years in the making, moves us.

將目光投向一個我們知道自己能夠做到

The dream of justice for all will be deferred no longer.

A cry for survival comes from the planet itself, a cry that can't be any more desperate or any more clear now.

The rise of political extremism, white supremacy, domestic terrorism, that we must confront and we will defeat.  

To overcome these challenges, to restore the soul and secure the future of America, requires so much more than words.

requires the most elusive of all things in a democracy

In another January on New Year's Day in 1863 Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation.

就如同昨晚與我談話的卡特總統一樣

When he put pen to paper the president said, and I quote,

儘管他今天無法與我們站在一起

if my name ever goes down into history it'll be for this act and my whole soul is in it . 

My whole soul is in it today, on this January day.

Bringing America together, uniting our people uniting in our nation.

這樣的宣示由喬治·華盛頓起頭

And I ask every American to join me in this cause.

但美國的故事並不取決於我們任何人

Uniting to fight the foes we face - anger, resentment and hatred.

Extremism,lawlessness violence disease joblessness and hopelessness.

With unity we can do great things important things we can right wrongs we can put people to work in good jobs,

we can teach our children in safe schools.

we can reward reward work and rebuild the middle  class and make health care secure for all

數個世紀以來 在和平與戰爭中經歷風風雨雨

We can deliver racial justice and we can make america once again the leading force for good in the world.

I know speaking of unity can sound to some like a foolish fantasy these days.

I know the forces that divide us are deep and they are real.  

But I also know they are not new. Our history has been a constant struggle between the American ideal,

因為在這個危急之冬 具有重大意義的遠景上

that we are all created equal, and the harsh ugly reality that racism, nativism, fear .

Have long torn us apart the battle is perennial and victory is never assured.  

Through civil war, the Great Depression, World War, 9/11, through struggle, sacrifice, and setbackour better angels have always prevailed.

In each of our moments enough of us have come together to carry all of us forward and we can do that now.

也有許多事情等待我們去建設 去收穫

History, faith and reason show the way. The way of unity.

the way of unity we can see each other not  as adversaries but as neighbors we can treat  

鮮少有人比我們現在面臨更大的挑戰

each other with dignity and respect we can join  forces stop the shouting and lower the temperature  

for without unity there is no peace only  bitterness and fury no progress only exhausting  

在一年之內奪走與第二次世界大戰一樣多條的人命

outrage no nation only a state of chaos this  is our historic moment of crisis and challenge  

數百萬人失業 數十萬家企業倒閉

and unity is the path forward and we must meet  this moment as the united states of america  

對種族正義的吶喊 約有400年的歷史

if we do that i guarantee you we will not fail  we have never ever ever ever failed in america  

使我們感動 全體人民的正義之夢將不再被推遲

we've acted together and so today at this  time in this place let's start afresh  

來自地球本身的求生呼喊 已萬分清晰與迫切

all of us let's begin to listen to one another  again hear one another see one another show  

respect to one another politics doesn't have to  be a raging fire destroying everything in his path

白人至上主義國內恐怖主義的崛起

every disagreement doesn't have  to be a cause for total war  

這些都是我們必須面對並且終將擊敗的議題

and we must reject the culture in which facts  themselves are manipulated and even manufactured

要克服這些挑戰 恢復靈魂 確保美國的未來

my fellow americans we have to be  different than this america has to be  

better than this and i believe america is  so much better than this just look around  

還必須擁有民主國家最難捉摸的「團結」

here we stand in the shadow of the capital dome as  was mentioned earlier completed amid the civil war  

when the union itself was literally hanging in the  balance yet we endured we prevailed here we stand  

looking out in the great mall where dr king spoke  of his dream here we stand we're 108 years ago at  

another inaugural thousands of protesters tried to  block brave women marching for the right to vote  

美國總統亞伯拉罕·林肯簽署了《解放奴隸宣言》

and today we mark the swearing into  the first woman in american history  

elected to national office vice president  kamala harris don't tell me things can't change

「如果我能在歷史留名，那將是因為這個舉動，而我整個人的靈魂都在其中。」

can we stand across the potomac from arlington  cemetery where heroes who gave the last full  

measure of devotion rest in eternal peace and  here we stand just days after a riotous mom  

thought they could use violence  to silence the will of the people  

to stop the work of our democracy  to drive us from this sacred ground  

it did not happen it will never happen  not today not tomorrow not ever not

將美國團結在一起 團結我們的人民

to ever those who supported our campaign  i'm humbled by the faith you placed in us  

to all those who did not support us let  me say this hear me out as we move forward  

我要求每一位美國人民都加入我的行列

take a measure of me and my heart if you still  disagree so be it that's democracy that's america  

the right to dissent peaceably than the guard  rails of our republic is perhaps this nation's  

greatest strength yet hear me clearly  this agreement must not lead to disunion  

and i pledge this to you i will be a  president for all americans all americans

無法無天 暴力 疾病 失業與絕望

and i promise you i will fight as hard for those  who did not support me as for those who did

many centuries ago saint augustine a saint of  my church wrote that the people was a multitude  

我們就可以完成偉大而重要的事

defying by the common objects of their love  defined by the common objects of their love  

what are the common objects we as americans  love that define us as americans i think we know  

可以讓人民找到一份好工作 孩子們也能在安全的校園裡受教育

opportunity security liberty dignity  respect honor and yes the truth  

我們可以戰勝致命的病毒 可以重建工作

recent weeks and months have taught us a  painful lesson there is truth and there are lies  

可以恢復中產階級並確保工作安全

lies told for power and for profit and  each of us has a duty and a responsibility  

as citizens as americans especially as leaders  leaders who have pledged to honor our constitution  

甚至讓美國再次成為全球永遠的領導主力

and protect our nation to defend  the truth and defeat the lies look
