Good afternoon, everybody. Earlier today, I was briefed by my homeland security team on the events in Boston. We’re continuing to monitor and respond to the situation as it unfolds. And I’ve directed the full resources of the federal government to help state and local authorities protect our people, increase security around the United States as necessary, and investigate what happened. 大家下午好。今天早些时候，国土安全团队向我汇报了波士顿发生的事件。我们正持续关注事态发展并作出应对。我已指示联邦政府动用全部资源，协助州和地方当局保护民众，在必要时加强全美各地的安保，并调查事发经过。
The American people will say a prayer for Boston tonight. And Michelle and I send our deepest thoughts and prayers to the families of the victims in the wake of this senseless loss. 今晚，美国人民会为波士顿祈祷。面对这场毫无意义的生命损失，米歇尔和我向遇难者家属致以最深切的慰问和祈祷。
We don’t yet have all the answers. But we do know that multiple people have been wounded, some gravely, in explosions at the Boston Marathon. 我们还没有掌握所有答案。但我们知道，波士顿马拉松比赛现场的爆炸造成多人受伤，其中一些人伤势严重。
I’ve spoken to FBI Director Mueller and Secretary of Homeland Security Napolitano, and they’re mobilizing the appropriate resources to investigate and to respond. 我已与联邦调查局局长穆勒和国土安全部部长纳波利塔诺通话。他们正在调集适当资源，开展调查和应对。
I’ve updated leaders of Congress in both parties, and we reaffirmed that on days like this there are no Republicans or Democrats -- we are Americans, united in concern for our fellow citizens. 我已向国会两党的领导人通报情况。我们共同重申：在这样的日子里，没有共和党人和民主党人之分，我们都是美国人，都关心自己的同胞，团结在一起。
I’ve also spoken with Governor Patrick and Mayor Menino, and made it clear that they have every single federal resource necessary to care for the victims and counsel the families. And above all, I made clear to them that all Americans stand with the people of Boston. 我还与帕特里克州长和梅尼诺市长通了话，明确告诉他们，他们可以获得照顾伤者、抚慰家属所需的一切联邦资源。最重要的是，我向他们表明，全体美国人都与波士顿人民站在一起。
Boston police, firefighters, and first responders as well as the National Guard responded heroically, and continue to do so as we speak. It’s a reminder that so many Americans serve and sacrifice on our behalf every single day, without regard to their own safety, in dangerous and difficult circumstances. And we salute all those who assisted in responding so quickly and professionally to this tragedy. 波士顿警察、消防员、其他先遣救援人员以及国民警卫队英勇地投入救援，此刻仍在奋战。这提醒我们，每一天都有许多美国人在危险而艰难的环境中为我们服务和付出，而不顾自身安危。我们向所有迅速、专业地应对这场悲剧的人致敬。
We still do not know who did this or why. And people shouldn’t jump to conclusions before we have all the facts. But make no mistake -- we will get to the bottom of this. And we will find out who did this; we'll find out why they did this. Any responsible individuals, any responsible groups will feel the full weight of justice. 我们仍不知道是谁所为，也不知道他们为何这样做。在掌握全部事实之前，大家不应急于下结论。但请不要怀疑，我们一定会查明真相，找出作案者及其动机。任何负有责任的个人或团体，都将受到法律最严厉的制裁。
Today is a holiday in Massachusetts -- Patriots’ Day. It’s a day that celebrates the free and fiercely independent spirit that this great American city of Boston has reflected from the earliest days of our nation. And it’s a day that draws the world to Boston’s streets in a spirit of friendly competition. Boston is a tough and resilient town. So are its people. I'm supremely confident that Bostonians will pull together, take care of each other, and move forward as one proud city. And as they do, the American people will be with them every single step of the way. 今天是马萨诸塞州的爱国者日。这个节日赞颂自由而坚韧的独立精神；从建国初期起，波士顿这座美国名城就体现着这种精神。人们也怀着友好竞技的心情，从世界各地来到波士顿的街头。波士顿是一座坚强、有韧性的城市，波士顿人民也是如此。我完全相信，他们会团结起来，互相照顾，作为一座自豪的城市继续前行。美国人民会在每一步与他们同行。
You should anticipate that as we get more information, our teams will provide you briefings. We're still in the investigation stage at this point. But I just want to reiterate we will find out who did this and we will hold them accountable. 随着我们获得更多信息，相关团队会向大家作进一步通报。目前调查仍处于初期阶段。但我要再次强调，我们一定会查明是谁所为，并追究其责任。
Thank you very much. 非常感谢。
