Chief Justice Roberts, President Carter, President Clinton, President Bush, President Obama, fellow Americans, and people of the world: Thank you. 首席大法官罗伯茨、卡特总统、克林顿总统、布什总统、奥巴马总统、美国同胞们、世界各国人民：谢谢大家。
We, the citizens of America, are now joined in a great national effort to rebuild our country and restore its promise for all of our people. Together, we will determine the course of America and the world for many, many years to come. We will face challenges, we will confront hardships, but we will get the job done. 我们，美国公民们，现在共同投身于一项伟大的国家事业——重建我们的国家，为全体人民恢复它的承诺。我们将共同决定美国和世界未来许多年的走向。我们将面临挑战，我们将遭遇困难，但我们一定会完成使命。
Every 4 years, we gather on these steps to carry out the orderly and peaceful transfer of power, and we are grateful to President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama for their gracious aid throughout this transition. They have been magnificent. Thank you. 每四年，我们在这些台阶上聚集，进行有序而和平的权力交接。我们感谢奥巴马总统和米歇尔·奥巴马第一夫人在整个过渡期间给予的慷慨帮助。他们表现得非常出色。谢谢你们。
Today's ceremony, however, has very special meaning. Because today we are not merely transferring power from one administration to another or from one party to another, but we are transferring power from Washington, DC, and giving it back to you, the people. 然而，今天的仪式有着非常特殊的意义。因为今天我们不仅仅是将权力从一届政府转移到另一届政府，或是从一个政党转移到另一个政党，而是将权力从华盛顿特区交还给你们——人民。
For too long, a small group in our Nation's Capital has reaped the rewards of Government while the people have borne the cost. Washington flourished, but the people did not share in its wealth. Politicians prospered, but the jobs left, and the factories closed. The establishment protected itself, but not the citizens of our country. Their victories have not been your victories; their triumphs have not been your triumphs; and while they celebrated in our Nation's Capital, there was little to celebrate for struggling families all across our land. 长久以来，我国首都的一小部分人享受着政府带来的好处，而人民却承担着代价。华盛顿繁荣了，但人民没有分享它的财富。政客们发达了，但工作机会流失了，工厂倒闭了。当权派保护了自己，却没有保护我们国家的公民。他们的胜利不是你们的胜利；他们的成功不是你们的成功；当他们在我国首都庆祝时，我们这片土地上苦苦挣扎的家庭却没什么可庆祝的。
That all changes, starting right here and right now, because this moment is your moment: It belongs to you. It belongs to everyone gathered here today and everyone watching all across America. This is your day. This is your celebration. And this, the United States of America, is your country. 从今天起，一切都会改变，因为这个时刻属于你们。它属于今天聚集在这里的每一个人，也属于全美国各地正在观看的每一个人。这是你们的日子。这是你们的庆典。而这个美利坚合众国，是你们的国家。
What truly matters is not which party controls our Government, but whether our Government is controlled by the people. January 20, 2017, will be remembered as the day the people became the rulers of this Nation again. The forgotten men and women of our country will be forgotten no longer. Everyone is listening to you now. 真正重要的不是哪个政党控制我们的政府，而是我们的政府是否由人民控制。2017年1月20日，将被铭记为人民再次成为这个国家统治者的日子。我们国家被遗忘的男男女女们将不再被遗忘。现在所有人都在倾听你们的声音。
You came by the tens of millions to become part of a historic movement the likes of which the world has never seen before. At the center of this movement is a crucial conviction: that a nation exists to serve its citizens. Americans want great schools for their children, safe neighborhoods for their families, and good jobs for themselves. These are just and reasonable demands of righteous people and a righteous public. 你们数以千万计地前来，成为一场历史性运动的一部分，一场世界前所未有的运动。这场运动的核心是一个至关重要的信念：国家存在是为了服务其公民。美国人希望为他们的孩子提供优质的学校，为他们的家庭提供安全的社区，为他们自己提供好的工作。这些是正直的人民和正直的公众的正当合理要求。
But for too many of our citizens, a different reality exists: Mothers and children trapped in poverty in our inner cities; rusted-out factories scattered like tombstones across the landscape of our Nation; an education system, flush with cash, but which leaves our young and beautiful students deprived of all knowledge; and the crime and the gangs and the drugs that have stolen too many lives and robbed our country of so much unrealized potential. 但对于我们太多的公民来说，另一种现实存在：母亲和孩子们被困在内城的贫困之中；锈迹斑斑的工厂像墓碑一样散布在我们国家的土地上；教育系统资金充足，却让我们年轻而优秀的学生们被剥夺了所有知识；而犯罪、帮派和毒品夺走了太多人的生命，剥夺了我们国家太多未实现的潜力。
This American carnage stops right here and stops right now. We are one Nation, and their pain is our pain, their dreams are our dreams, and their success will be our success. We share one heart, one home, and one glorious destiny. 这场美国的惨状就在这里、就在现在停止。我们是一个国家，他们的痛苦就是我们的痛苦，他们的梦想就是我们的梦想，他们的成功就是我们的成功。我们共享一颗心、一个家园和一个光荣的命运。
The oath of office I take today is an oath of allegiance to all Americans. 我今天所宣誓的就职誓言，是对所有美国人的忠诚誓言。
For many decades, we've enriched foreign industry at the expense of American industry, subsidized the armies of other countries while allowing for the very sad depletion of our military. We've defended other nations' borders while refusing to defend our own and spent trillions and trillions of dollars overseas while America's infrastructure has fallen into disrepair and decay. We've made other countries rich while the wealth, strength, and confidence of our country has dissipated over the horizon. 几十年来，我们以牺牲美国工业为代价，让外国工业富裕起来；我们补贴其他国家的军队，却任由我们自己的军队可悲地枯竭。我们保卫其他国家的边境，却拒绝保卫我们自己的边境；我们在海外花费了数万亿美元，而美国的基础设施却年久失修、日渐衰败。我们让其他国家变得富有，而我们国家的财富、力量和信心却消失在远方。
One by one, the factories shuttered and left our shores, with not even a thought about the millions and millions of American workers that were left behind. The wealth of our middle class has been ripped from their homes and then redistributed all across the world. 工厂一个接一个关闭，离开了我们的海岸，甚至没有想过那些被抛在身后的数百万美国工人。我们中产阶级的财富被从他们的家园中夺走，然后重新分配到世界各地。
But that is the past. And now we are looking only to the future. 但那已经是过去。现在我们只展望未来。
We, assembled here today, are issuing a new decree to be heard in every city, in every foreign capital, and in every hall of power. From this day forward, a new vision will govern our land. From this day forward, it's going to be only America first. America first. 我们今天聚集在这里，发布一项新的法令，让它在每一座城市、每一个外国首都和每一个权力殿堂都能听到。从今天起，一个新的愿景将治理我们的土地。从今天起，只有美国优先。美国优先！
Every decision on trade, on taxes, on immigration, on foreign affairs, will be made to benefit American workers and American families. 每一项关于贸易、税收、移民和外交事务的决定，都将以造福美国工人和美国家庭为宗旨。
We must protect our borders from the ravages of other countries making our products, stealing our companies, and destroying our jobs. Protection will lead to great prosperity and strength. I will fight for you with every breath in my body, and I will never, ever let you down. 我们必须保护我们的边境，免受其他国家制造我们的产品、窃取我们的公司、破坏我们的工作所带来的破坏。保护将带来巨大的繁荣和力量。我将用我身体的每一口气为你们战斗，我永远、永远不会让你们失望。
America will start winning again, winning like never before. We will bring back our jobs. We will bring back our borders. We will bring back our wealth. And we will bring back our dreams. 美国将重新开始胜利，取得前所未有的胜利。我们将带回我们的工作。我们将带回我们的边境。我们将带回我们的财富。我们将带回我们的梦想。
We will build new roads and highways and bridges and airports and tunnels and railways all across our wonderful Nation. 我们将在我们伟大的国家建设新的公路、高速公路、桥梁、机场、隧道和铁路。
We will get our people off of welfare and back to work, rebuilding our country with American hands and American labor. We will follow two simple rules: Buy American and hire American. 我们将让我们的人民摆脱福利，重返工作岗位，用美国人的双手和美国人的劳动重建我们的国家。我们将遵循两条简单的规则：买美国货，雇美国人。
We will seek friendship and good will with the nations of the world, but we do so with the understanding that it is the right of all nations to put their own interests first. We do not seek to impose our way of life on anyone, but rather to let it shine as an example—we will shine—for everyone to follow. 我们将寻求与世界各国建立友谊和善意，但我们要理解，所有国家都有权把自己的利益放在首位。我们不寻求将我们的生活方式强加给任何人，而是让它作为一个榜样闪耀——我们将闪耀——让所有人效仿。
We will reinforce old alliances and form new ones and unite the civilized world against radical Islamic terrorism, which we will eradicate completely from the face of the Earth. 我们将加强旧联盟，建立新联盟，并团结文明世界对抗激进伊斯兰恐怖主义，我们将把它从地球表面彻底根除。
At the bedrock of our politics will be a total allegiance to the United States of America, and through our loyalty to our country, we will rediscover our loyalty to each other. When you open your heart to patriotism, there is no room for prejudice. The Bible tells us, "How good and pleasant it is when God's people live together in unity." We must speak our minds openly, debate our disagreements honestly, but always pursue solidarity. When America is united, America is totally unstoppable. There should be no fear: We are protected, and we will always be protected. We will be protected by the great men and women of our military and law enforcement, and most importantly, we will be protected by God. 我们政治的基石将是对美利坚合众国的完全忠诚，通过对我们国家的忠诚，我们将重新发现对彼此的忠诚。当你敞开心扉拥抱爱国主义时，就没有偏见的容身之地。圣经告诉我们："上帝的子民和睦同居，是何等美好、何等令人愉悦。"我们必须公开表达我们的想法，诚实地辩论我们的分歧，但始终追求团结。当美国团结起来时，美国是完全不可阻挡的。不必害怕：我们受到保护，我们将永远受到保护。我们将受到我们军队和执法部门伟大的男女英雄们的保护，最重要的是，我们将受到上帝的保护。
Finally, we must think big and dream even bigger. In America, we understand that a nation is only living as long as it is striving. 最后，我们必须大胆思考，梦想更大。在美国，我们明白，一个国家只有在奋斗中才能生存。
We will no longer accept politicians who are all talk and no action, constantly complaining, but never doing anything about it. The time for empty talk is over. Now arrives the hour of action. 我们将不再接受那些只说不做、不断抱怨却从不采取行动的政客。空谈的时代已经结束。行动的时刻已经到来。
Do not allow anyone to tell you that it cannot be done. No challenge can match the heart and fight and spirit of America. We will not fail. Our country will thrive and prosper again. 不要让任何人告诉你这不可能做到。没有任何挑战能与美国的决心、斗志和精神相匹敌。我们不会失败。我们的国家将再次繁荣昌盛。
We stand at the birth of a new millennium, ready to unlock the mysteries of space, to free the Earth from the miseries of disease, and to harness the energies, industries, and technologies of tomorrow. A new national pride will stir our souls, lift our sights, and heal our divisions. 我们站在新千年的开端，准备揭开太空的奥秘，将地球从疾病的痛苦中解放出来，并利用明天的能源、工业和技术。一种新的民族自豪感将激荡我们的灵魂，提升我们的视野，并治愈我们的分歧。
It's time to remember that old wisdom our soldiers will never forget: that whether we are Black or Brown or White, we all bleed the same red blood of patriots, we all enjoy the same glorious freedoms, and we all salute the same great American flag. 是时候记住我们的士兵永远不会忘记的古老智慧了：无论我们是黑人、棕色人还是白人，我们都流淌着同样鲜红的爱国者之血，我们都享受着同样光荣的自由，我们都向同一面伟大的美国国旗致敬。
And whether a child is born in the urban sprawl of Detroit or the windswept plains of Nebraska, they look up at the same night sky, they fill their heart with the same dreams, and they are infused with the breath of life by the same almighty Creator. 无论一个孩子出生在底特律的城市扩张区还是内布拉斯加州的风吹平原，他们仰望同一片夜空，心中充满同样的梦想，被同一位全能的造物主注入生命的气息。
So to all Americans in every city near and far, small and large, from mountain to mountain, from ocean to ocean, hear these words: You will never be ignored again. Your voice, your hopes, and your dreams will define our American destiny. And your courage and goodness and love will forever guide us along the way. 所以，致所有近在咫尺、远在天边、大大小小城市里的美国人，从一座山到另一座山，从一片海洋到另一片海洋，请听我说：你们将永远不再被忽视。你们的声音、你们的希望和你们的梦想将定义我们的美国命运。而你们的勇气、善良和爱将永远指引我们前进。
Together, we will make America strong again. We will make America wealthy again. We will make America proud again. We will make America safe again. 共同努力，我们将让美国再次强大。我们将让美国再次富裕。我们将让美国再次自豪。我们将让美国再次安全。
And, yes, together, we will make America great again. Thank you. God bless you, and God bless America. Thank you. God bless America. 是的，共同努力，我们将让美国再次伟大。谢谢大家。上帝保佑你们，上帝保佑美国。谢谢大家。上帝保佑美国。
