2019歐巴馬演講稿(4篇)

謝謝，非常感謝大家。拜登副總統、首席大法官先生、國會議員們、尊敬的各位嘉賓、親愛的公民們。(mr. obama: thank you. thank you so much. vice president biden, mr. chief justice, members of the united states congress, distinguished guests, and fellow citizens:)

每一次我們集會慶祝總統就職都是在見證美國憲法的持久力量。我們都是在肯定美國民主的承諾。我們重申，將這個國家緊密聯繫在一起的不是我們的膚色，也不是我們信仰的教條，更不是我們名的來源。讓我們與眾不同，讓我們成為美國人的是我們對於一種理念的恪守。200多年前，這一理念在一篇宣言中被清晰闡述：(each time we gather to inaugurate a president, we bear witness to the enduring strength of our constitution. we affirm the promise of our democracy. we recall that what binds this nation together is not the colors of our skin or the tenets of our faith or the origins of our names. what makes us exceptional –what makes us american – is our allegiance to an idea, articulated in a declaration made more than two centuries ago:)

“我們認為下述真理是不言而喻的，人人生而平等。造物主賦予他們若干不可剝奪的權利，包括生存、自由和追求幸福的權利。”(“we hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal,that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”)

今天，我們繼續著這一未竟的征程，架起這些理念與我們時代現實之間的橋樑。因為歷史告訴我們，即便這些真理是不言而喻的，它們也從來不會自動生效。因為雖然自由是上帝賦予的禮物，但仍需要世間的子民去捍衛。1776年，美國的愛國先驅們不是只為了推翻國王的暴政而戰，也不是為贏得少數人的特權，建立暴民的統治。先驅們留給我們一個共和國，一個民有、民治、民享的政府。他們委託每一代美國人捍衛我們的建國信條。(today we continue a never-ending journey, to bridge the meaning of those words with the realities of our time. for history tells us that while these truths may be self-evident, they have never been self-executing; that while freedom is a gift from god, it must be secured by his people here on earth. the patriots of 1776 did not fight to replace the tyranny of a king with the privileges of a few or the rule of a mob. they gave to us a republic, a government of, and by, and for the people, entrusting each generation to keep safe our founding creed.)

在過去的200多年裡，我們做到了。(for more than two hundred years, we have.)

從奴役的血腥枷鎖和刀劍的血光廝殺中我們懂得了，建立在自由與平等原則之上的聯邦不能永遠維持半奴隸和半自由的狀態。我們贏得了新生，誓言共同前進。(through blood drawn by lash and blood drawn by sword, we learned that no union founded on the principles of liberty and equality could survive half-slave and half-free. we made ourselves anew, and vowed to move forward together.)

我們共同努力，建立起現代的經濟體系。架設鐵路與高速公路，加速了旅行和商業交流。建立學校與大學，培訓我們的工人。(together, we determined that a modern economy requires railroads and highways to speed travel and commerce; schools and colleges to train our workers。)

我們一起發現，自由市場的繁榮只能建立在保障競爭與公平競爭的原則之上。(together, we discovered that a free market only thrives when there are rules to ensure competition and fair play.)

我們共同決定讓這個偉大的國家遠離危險，保護她的人民不受生命威脅和不幸的侵擾。(together, we resolved that a great nation must care for the vulnerable, and protect its people from life’s worst hazards and misfortune.)

一路走來，我們從未放棄對集權的質疑。我們同樣不屈服於這一謊言：一切的社會弊端都能夠只靠政府來解決。我們對積極向上與奮發進取的讚揚，我們對努力工作與個人責任的堅持，這些都是美國精神的基本要義。(through it all, we have never relinquished our skepticism of central authority, nor have we succumbed to the fiction that all society’s ills can be cured through government alone. our celebration of initiative and enterprise; our insistence on hard work and personal responsibility, these are constants in our character.)

我們也理解，時代在變化，我們同樣需要變革。對建國精神的忠誠，需要我們肩負起新的責任，迎接新的挑戰。保護我們的個人自由，最終需要所有人的共同努力。因為美國人不能再獨力迎接當今世界的挑戰，正如美國士兵們不能再像先輩一樣，用步槍和民兵同敵人(法西斯主義與共產主義)作戰。一個人無法培訓所有的數學與科學老師，我們需要他們為了未來去教育孩子們。一個人無法建設道路、鋪設網路、建立實驗室來為國內帶來新的工作崗位和商業機會。現在，與以往任何時候相比，我們都更需要團結合作。作為一個國家，一個民族團結起來。

(but we have always understood that when times change, so must we; that fidelity to our founding principles requires new responses to new challenges;that preserving our individual freedoms ultimately requires collective action. for the american people can no more meet the demands of today’s world by acting alone than american soldiers could have met the forces of fascism or communism with muskets and militias. no single person can train all the math and science teachers we’ll need to equip our children for the future, or build the roads and networks and research labs that will bring new jobs and businesses to our shores. now, more than ever, we must do these things together, as one nation,and one people.)

這一代美國人經歷了危機的考驗，經濟危機堅定了我們的決心，證明了我們的恢復力。長達十年的戰爭正在結束，經濟的復甦已經開始。美國的可能性是無限的，因為我們擁有當今沒有邊界的世界所需要的所有品質：年輕與活力、多樣性與開放、無窮的冒險精神以及創造的天賦才能。我親愛的同胞們，我們正是為此刻而生，我們更要在此刻團結一致，抓住當下的機會。(this generation of americans has been tested by crises that steeled our resolve and proved our resilience. a decade of war is now ending. an economic recovery has begun. america’s possibilities are limitless, for we possess all the qualities that this world without boundaries demands: youth and drive;diversity and openness; an endless capacity for risk and a gift for reinvention.my fellow americans, we are made for this moment, and we will seize it – so long as we seize it together.)

因為我們，美國人民，清楚如果只有不斷萎縮的少數人群體獲得成功，而大多數人不能成功，我們的國家就無法成功。我們相信，美國的繁榮必須建立在不斷上升的中產階級的寬闊臂膀之上，我們知道美國的繁榮只有這樣才能實現。只有當每個人都能找到工作中的自立與自豪時才能實現。只有當誠實勞動獲得的薪水足夠讓家庭擺脫困苦的懸崖時才能實現。我們忠誠於我們的事業，保證讓一個出生於最貧窮環境中的小女孩都能知道，她有同其他所有人一樣的成功機會。因為她是一個美國人，她是自由的、平等的。她的自由平等不僅由上帝來見證，更由我們親手保護。(for we, the people, understand that our country cannot succeed when a shrinking few do very well and a growing many barely make it. we believe that america’s prosperity must rest upon the broad shoulders of a rising middle class. we know that america thrives when every person can find independence and pride in their work; when the wages of honest labor liberate families from the brink of hardship. we are true to our creed when a little girl born into the bleakest poverty knows that she has the same chance to succeed as anybody else, because she is an american, she is free, and she is equal, not just in the eyes of god but also in our own.)

我們知道，我們已然陳舊的程式不足以滿足時代的需要。我們必須套用新理念和新技術重塑我們的政府，改進我們的稅法，改革我們的學校，讓我們的公民擁有他們所需要的技能，更加努力地工作，學更多的知識，向更高處發展。這意味著變革，我們的目標是：國家可以獎勵每個美國人的努力和果斷。這是現在需要的。這將給我們的信條賦予真正的意義。(we understand that outworn programs are inadequate to the needs of our time. we must harness new ideas and technology to remake our government, revamp our tax code, reform our schools, and empower our citizens with the skills they need to work harder, learn more, and reach higher. but while the means will change, our purpose endures: a nation that rewards the effort and determination of every single american. that is what this moment requires. that is what will give real meaning to our creed.)

我們，人民，仍然認為，每個公民都應當獲得基本的安全和尊嚴。我們必須做出艱難抉擇，降低醫療成本，縮減赤規模。但我們拒絕在照顧建設國家的這一代和投資即將建設國家的下一代間做出選擇。因為我們記得過去的教訓：老年人的夕陽時光在貧困中度過，家有殘障兒童的父母無處求助。我們相信，在這個國家，自由不只是那些幸運兒的專屬，或者說幸福只屬於少數人。我們知道，不管我們怎樣負責任地生活，我們任何人在任何時候都可能面臨失業、突發疾病或住房被可怕的颶風摧毀的風險。　我們通過醫療保險、聯邦醫療補助計畫、社會保障項目向每個人做出承諾，這些不會讓我們的創造力衰竭，而是會讓我們更強大。這些不會讓我們成為充滿不勞而獲者的國度，這些讓我們敢於承擔風險，讓國家偉大。(we, the people, still believe that every citizen deserves a basic measure of security and dignity. we must make the hard choices to reduce the cost of health care and the size of our deficit. but we reject the belief that america must choose between caring for the generation that built this country and investing in the generation that will build its future. for we remember the lessons of our past, when twilight years were spent in poverty, and parents of a child with a disability had nowhere to turn. we do not believe that in this country, freedom is reserved for the lucky, or happiness for the few. we recognize that no matter how responsibly we live our lives, any one of us, at any time, may face a job loss, or a sudden illness, or a home swept away in a terrible storm. the commitments we make to each other – through medicare, and medicaid, and social security – these things do not sap our initiative; they strengthen us. they do not make us a nation of takers; they free us to take the risks that make this country great.)

歐巴馬周末電視演講稿譯文

hi, everybody. about a year ago, i promised that XX would be a breakthrough year for america. and this week, we got more evidence to back that up.

in december, our businesses created 240,000 new jobs. the unemployment rate fell to 5.6%. that means that XX was the strongest year for job growth since the 1990s. in XX, unemployment fell faster than it has in three decades.

over a 58-month streak, our businesses have created 11.2 million new jobs. after a decade of decline, american manufacturing is in its best stretch of job growth since the „90s. america is now the world‟s number one producer of oil and gas, helping to save drivers about a buck-ten a gallon at the pump over this time last year. thanks to the affordable care act, about 10 million americans have gained health insurance in the past year alone. we have cut our deficits by about two-thirds. and after 13 long years, our war in afghanistan has come to a responsible end, and more of our brave troops have come home.

大家好。大約一年前，我預料XX年將是美國有所突破的一年。本周，我們得到了很多證據支持。

在12月份，我們的企業創造了240，000個就業崗位。失業率降低到5.6%。這意味著XX年是自1990年代以來就業增長最強勁的一年。在XX年，失業率以30年來最快的速度下降。

經過58個月的衝刺，我們的企業創造了1千1百20萬個新就業崗位。經過XX年的下滑後，美國的製造業目前正處於自90年代以來就業增長的最佳時期。美國現在是世界上頭號石油和天然氣生產國，這使駕駛人們自去年這個時候以來每加侖節約1美元10美分。多虧了可承受的醫保法案，僅在去年就有近1千萬美國人獲得醫保。我們已經減少了大約三分之二的赤。經過13個漫長的歲月，我們的阿富汗戰爭合理收官，更多英勇的軍人回國。

it has been six years since the crisis. those years have demanded hard work and sacrifice on everybody‟s part. so as a country, we have every right to be proud of what we‟ve got to show for it. america‟s resurgence is real. and now that we‟ve got some calmer waters, if we all do our part, if we all pitch in, we can make sure that tide starts lifting all boats again. we can make sure that the middle class is the engine that powers america‟s prosperity for decades to come.

that‟ll be the focus of my state of the union address in a couple weeks – building on the progress we‟ve made. but i figured, why wait – let‟s get started right now.

危機爆發已經六年了。這些年要求每個人勤奮工作作出犧牲。所以作為一個國家，我們有資格為我們的表現感到自豪。美國的復甦是實實在在的。現在我們已經柳暗花明了，但是如果我們都儘自己的努力、都全力以赴，我們就會再次形成眾人拾柴火焰高的局面。我們確保在未來的幾十年里中產階級仍然是美國繁榮的引擎。

這是我幾周后的國情咨文報告的重點--百尺竿頭更進一步。但是我想，為什麼等待--讓我們從現在做起。

on wednesday, i visited a ford plant outside of detroit – because the american auto industry and its home state are redefining the word “comeback.” on thursday, i traveled to arizona, a state that was hit among the hardest by the housing crisis, to announce a new plan that will put hundreds of dollars in new homeowners‟ pockets, and help more new families buy their first home. and, i‟m speaking with you today from pellissippi state community college in tennessee, a state making big strides in education, to unveil my new plan to make two years of community college free for every responsible student. i‟m also here to establish a new hub that will attract more good-paying, high-tech manufacturing jobs to our shores.

周三，我訪問了底特律郊外的福特工廠--因為美國汽車工業和它的故鄉正在重新定義“回歸”一詞。周四，我訪問了亞利桑那州，一個房市危機受害最嚴重的州之一，宣布一個計畫把成百上千的美元放入新家庭的口袋裡，幫助更多新家庭買首套住房。我今天正在在教育取得了巨大的進步田納西州的pellissippi州立社區大學和你們談話，宣布我的讓每個負責任的學生可以免費就讀兩年制社區大學的新計畫。我在這裡還建立一個把高收入高技術就業崗位吸引到我們的海岸的新樞紐。

making homeownership easier. bringing a higher education within reach. creating more good jobs that pay good wages. these are just some of the ways we can help every american get ahead in the new economy. and there‟s more to come. because america is coming back. and i want to go full speed ahead.

thanks, everybody, and have a great weekend.

讓成家立業更加容易。讓高等教育可以承受。創造更多高收入的好工作崗位。這些僅僅是幾個幫助每個美國人在新經濟中致富的途徑。還有很多。因為美國正在回歸。我要全速前進。

謝謝崗位，周末快樂。

歐巴馬獲勝演說演講稿（中英文）

Barack Obama’s Victory Speech: Change Has Come To America

If there is anyone out there who still doubts that America is a place where all things are possible, who still wonders if the dream of our founders is alive in our time, who still questions the power of our democracy, tonight is your answer.

如果，還有人懷疑美國是一切皆有可能的國度，還有人懷疑國父們的夢想在我們的時代是否還存在，還有人懷疑我們的民主所擁有的力量，那么今晚，你聽到了回答。

It’s the answer told by lines that stretched around schools and churches in numbers this nation has never seen, by people who waited three hours and four hours, many for the first time in their lives, because they believed that this time must be different, that their voices could be that difference.

是那些今天在學校和教堂排著長隊、數不勝數的選民做出了回答；是那些為了投票等待了三四個小時的人們做出了回答。他們中的很多人，是有生以來第一次投票，因為他們相信，這次真的不同――他們的聲音會讓這次不同。

It’s the answer spoken by young and old, rich and poor, Democrat and Republican, black, white, Hispanic, Asian, Native American, gay, straight, disabled and not disabled. Americans who sent a message to the world that we have never been just a collection of individuals or a collection of red states and blue states.

We are, and always will be, the United States of America.

這個回答來自青年、老人、窮人、富人、民主黨、共和黨人、黑皮膚、白皮膚、拉美人、亞裔、印第安人、同性戀和非同性戀者、殘疾人和健全者。美國告訴世界，我們從來就不是一半紅、一半藍（譯者：分別代表民主黨和共和黨。），我們是——美利堅合眾國。

It’s the answer that led those who’ve been told for so long by so many to be cynical and fearful and doubtful about what we can achieve to put their hands on the arc of history and bend it once more toward the hope of a better day.

很多人，在長久以往的耳濡目染中憤世嫉俗、擔憂、懷疑。但今天他們做出了回答。他們的雙手扭轉了歷史，讓歷史轉向充滿希望的新的一天。

It’s been a long time coming, but tonight, because of what we did on this date in this election at this defining moment change has come to America.

我們等待了很久。但今夜，因為我們今天的努力、因為這次選舉，在這決定性的時刻，美國終於迎來了轉變。

A little bit earlier this evening, I received an extraordinarily gracious call from Sen. McCain.

Sen. McCain fought long and hard in this campaign. And he’s fought even longer and harder for the country that he loves. He has endured sacrifices for America that most of us cannot begin to imagine. We are better off for the service rendered by this brave and selfless leader.

I congratulate him; I congratulate Gov. Palin for all that they’ve achieved. And I look forward to working with them to renew this nation’s promise in the months ahead.

我剛剛收到麥凱恩參議員打來的電話，他非常誠摯。在這次漫長的競選中，他付出了艱苦的努力。而為這個他所愛的國家，他付出得更多、時間也更長。他忍受過的犧牲，是我們很多美國人無法想像的。這位勇敢而無私的領袖的付出會讓我們的國家更強大。對麥凱恩參議員和佩林州長所取得的成績，我這裡也表示欽佩。我期待在接下來的幾個月中，與他們一道重拾美國的承諾。

I want to thank my partner in this journey, a man who campaigned from his heart, and spoke for the men and women he grew up with on the streets of Scranton and rode with on the train home to Delaware, the vice president-elect of the United States, Joe Biden.

我要感謝我的競選夥伴。他發自內心地投入競選，他的聲音代表了那些在他成長的斯克蘭頓街生活的人們的聲音，代表那些和他一道乘火車上下班的德拉瓦州人民的聲音。現在他將是美國的副總統，他就是喬·拜登。

And I would not be standing here tonight without the unyielding support of my best friend for the last 16 years the rock of our family, the love of my life, the nation’s next first lady Michelle Obama.

Sasha and Malia I love you both more than you can imagine. And you have earned the new puppy that’s coming with us to the new White House.

And while she’s no longer with us, I know my grandmother’s watching, along with the family that made me who I am. I miss them tonight. I know that my debt to them is beyond measure.

To my sister Maya, my sister Alma, all my other brothers and sisters, thank you so much for all the support that you’ve given me. I am grateful to them.

如果不是我過去十六年間最親密的朋友、我的家庭的基石和我一生的至愛給予的支持，今晚我不會站在這裡。那就是我們國家的下任第一夫人，米歇爾·歐巴馬。還有我的女兒，薩沙和瑪麗亞。我是如此愛你們。我們會帶著你們剛贏得的小狗一起搬進白宮。而我的外祖母，雖然此刻他已經離我們而去，但我知道她在看著呢——和帶給我生命、定義了我人生的家人們一道。今夜，我想念他們。我知道我欠他們的難以償還。

歐巴馬悼念曼德拉逝世中英文演講稿

2019歐巴馬演講稿（4） | 返回目錄

at his trial in 1964, nelson mandela closed his statement from the dock saying, "i have fought against white domination, and i have fought against black domination. i have cherished the ideal of a democratic and free society in which all persons live together in harmony and with equal opportunities. it is an ideal which i hope to live for and to achieve. but if needs be, it is an ideal for which i am prepared to die."

and nelson mandela lived for that ideal, and he made it real. he achieved more than could be expected of any man. today, he has gone home. and we have lost one of the most influential, courageous, and profoundly good human beings that any of us will share time with on this earth. he no longer belongs to us -- he belongs to the ages.

through his fierce dignity and unbending will to sacrifice his own freedom for the freedom of others, madiba transformed south africa -- and moved all of us. his journey from a prisoner to a president embodied the promise that human beings -- and countries -- can change for the better. his commitment to transfer power and reconcile with those who jailed him set an example that all humanity should aspire to, whether in the lives of nations or our own personal lives. and the fact that he did it all with grace and good humor, and an ability to acknowledge his own imperfections, only makes the man that much more remarkable. as he once said, "i am not a saint, unless you think of a saint as a sinner who keeps on trying."

i am one of the countless millions who drew inspiration from nelson mandela's life. my very first political action, the first thing i ever did that involved an issue or a policy or politics, was a protest against apartheid. i studied his words and his writings. the day that he was released from prison gave me a sense of what human beings can do when they’re guided by their hopes and not by their fears. and like so many around the globe, i cannot fully imagine my own life without the example that nelson mandela set, and so long as i live i will do what i can to learn from him.

to graça machel and his family, michelle and i extend our deepest sympathy and gratitude for sharing this extraordinary man with us. his life’s work meant long days away from those who loved him the most. and i only hope that the time spent with him these last few weeks brought peace and comfort to his family.

to the people of south africa, we draw strength from the example of renewal, andreconciliation, and resilience that you made real. a free south africa at peace with itself -- that’s an example to the world, and that’s madiba’s legacy to the nation he loved.

we will not likely see the likes of nelson mandela again. so it falls to us as best we can to forward the example that he set: to make decisions guided not by hate, but by love; to never discount the difference that one person can make; to strive for a future that is worthy of his sacrifice.

for now, let us pause and give thanks for the fact that nelson mandela lived -- a man who took history in his hands, and bent the arc of the moral universe toward justice. may god bless his memory and keep him in peace.
