诺瑟普先生 Mr. Northup,
有两位先生你应该认识一下 I have two gentlemen acquaintance you should make.
布朗先生和汉密尔顿先生 Misters Brown and Hamilton.
先生 Sir.
诺瑟普先生 这两位先生 Mr. Northup, these two gentlemen
在打听才能杰出的人 were inquiring about distinguished individuals,
而我刚刚说到索罗门·诺瑟普 and I was just this very moment saying Solomon Northup
-是位专业的小提琴演奏家 -的确 - is an expert player on the violin. - He was indeed.
穆恩先生真是谬赞了 Mr. Moon is being overly gracious.

-马戏团 -那是我们的一般员工 - A circus? - That is our usual employee.
我们的公司现在位于华盛顿市 The company currently in the city of Washington.
和我们同行的这个群体 既有才又有趣 Circus too constricting a word to describe
把他们说成是"马戏团" 就太片面了 the talented and merry band with which we travel.
他们的表演 是大多数常人从未见过的 It is a spectacle unlike most have ever witnessed.

来自东方的杂耍人 Acrobats from the Orient

他是享誉国际的 an internationally renowned practitioner
一名魔术师 in the art of prestidigitation.
我们现在正要回公司去 We are on our way thither to rejoin the company,

是希望从自己的演出中获取薄利 to make a small profit from our own exhibitions.
我们向穆恩先生打听是因为... The reason for our inquiry with Mr. Moon...
是的 我们苦于找不到 Yes. We had just a devil of a time
适合我们演出的音乐 in procuring music for our entertainments.
似乎真正有才能的人少之又少 Men of true talents are seemingly in short supply.

我们可以每天付给你一美元的酬劳 we could give you one dollar for each day's services

明天你会觉得神清气爽 Tomorrow you will feel as well and refreshed..
仿佛世界也焕然一新 as if the earth were new again.

一旦进入蓄奴州 我想只有一种结果 well, I suppose once in a slave state there's only one outcome.

我之前太沉迷于威士忌 I became a little too dependant on the whisky,
工作上太不靠谱 a little too undependable on the job.
在你说我只是个没用的醉鬼之前 Before you say I'm just a sorry drunkard,
我先澄清一下自己的情况 let me state my case:
监工虽是个可靠的职业 As reliable employment as overseeing is,
从精神层面讲 可不轻松 it's no easy chore on the spirit.
我觉得一个神志清醒的人 I say no man of conscious;
不可能一天到晚不停抽打别人 can take the lash to another human day in and day out
却不会丢失自我 without shredding at his own self.
这种工作会让他 Takes him to a place...
要么找借口让自己的精神不受影响 where he either makes excuses within his mind to be unaffected...
要么设法无视自己的罪恶感 or finds some way to trample his guilty sensations.
我选择无视 Well, I trampled,
而且很频繁 with frequency.
我相信一夜暴富的奇迹是有的 I gave in to tales of wealth and prosperity,
但丰厚的利润 but such profitable outcomes
只属于种植园主 are reserved for the plantation masters.
我们剩下的这帮人 只有干活的份 It's the lot of the rest of us to serve.
现在我只想挣一笔像样的工资 Now, all I want is to earn a decent wage
好成家立业 and get myself home.
这是我小提琴演奏的收入 The proceeds of my fiddling performances.
只有几枚小钱 Just a few picayunes,
却是我的全部家当 but all I have in the world.
如果你能帮我个忙 我就全都给你 I promise them to you if you will do me the favor I require.
但如果你做不到 也求你不要告发我 But I beg you not to expose me if you cannot grant the request.
什么 What...
-你想要什么 -请你先保证 先生 - What is it that you ask? - First, your word, sir.
以我的名誉起誓 On my honor.
这要求再简单不过 It is a simple enough request.
我只求你为我寄一封信 I only ask you to post a letter
寄到麦克斯韦的邮局 at the post office in Marksville
同时对整件事永远保密 and that you keep the action an inviolable secret forever.
先生 我要的就是一位保护人 A patron is what I require, sir.
我会帮你 I'll do it.
任何报酬我都能接受 And I will accept whatever payment is offered.
为了帮你 我要以身试险 To assist you, I put my own self at risk.

去写信吧 Draw up your letter.
我们两天后见 好吗 We will meet again. In two days?

好啊 小子 Well, boy.
我听说我有个会识字的黑奴 I understand I've got a learned nigger
写了信... that writes letters...
托白人朋友为他寄出去 and tries to get white fellows to mail 'em.
今天安斯比告诉我 Well, Armsby tol' me today
我的黑奴中有魔鬼 the devil was among my niggers.
如果不严加看管 that I have one that needed watchin'
就会逃之夭夭 or he would run away.
我问他怎么回事 When I asked him why
他说你去找了他 he said you come over to him,
大半夜把他叫醒 and waked him up in the middle of the night,
要他替你送一封信 and wanted him to carry a letter
到麦克斯韦 to Marksville.
你有什么要说的吗 What yah got to say to that?
他在信口胡诌 There is no truth to it.
说下去 You say.
没有纸和墨水 我用什么写信 How could I write a letter without ink or paper?
我又能写给谁 Who am I going to write to?
据我所知 我的朋友都去世了 I got no friends living as I know of.
那个安斯比 That Armsby...
那个安斯比是个满嘴谎话的醉鬼 That Armsby is a lying drunken fellow.
他不是想让你雇他当监工吗 Didn't he want you to hire him as an overseer?
就是因为这个 That's it.
他就是要你以为我们都会逃跑 He wants to make you believe we're all going to run away
这样你才会雇他 so you'll hire him an overseer.
他觉得你好欺负 He believes you are soft soap,
才凭空捏造了 and he's given to such talk,
这样的谎话 made this story out of whole cloth,
因为这样就对他有利了 because he wants the situation.
主人 他在骗你 It's all a lie, master.
别相信他 It's all a lie.
我差点被骗了 I'll be damned.
他要不是个自由的白人 普莱特 Were he not free and white, Platt.
他要不是个自由的白人 就死定了 Were he not free and white.
爱德华 给他水 Edward? Give him water!
起来 Get up.
赶紧起来 黑鬼 Nigger, get up.
小子 你看什么看 What are you looking at, boy?
给我接着干活 Keep picking, boy.
我想为埃布拉姆叔叔 I just want to say something
说两句 'bout Uncle Abram.
他是个好人 He was a good man
我们小时候起 他就一直照顾我们 and he always looked out for us, ever since we were little.
愿上帝爱他 God love him.
保佑他 接纳他 God bless him. God keep him.
阿门 Amen.
先别放手 Wait till the end.
贝斯 Hey, Bass?
不用 不用 No, no, no...
大热天 休息一下没什么 No shame in taking respite from the heat,
喝点东西 避避暑 drink, shade.
对旅行者不该这么好 但对朋友就另当别论 It's ungodly for travelers. Hearty, or otherwise.
-笑什么 -艾普斯 我是来完成手头工作的 - What's funny ? - Epps, I'm here to finish the work at hand.
根据你的要求和报酬 As requested and as paid for.
谁招惹你了 Something rubs you wrongly.
现在给你个机会说出来 I offer you the opportunity to speak off.
你大方地问 那我也大方地回答你 Well. You ask plainly, so I will tell you plainly.
刚才我觉得好笑的是... What amused me just then, was...
你关心我在烈日下的状况 your concern for my well being in this heat,
而说实话... when quite frankly,
你的那些劳工们... the conditions of your labours...
-我的劳工们怎么了 -他们很辛苦 - The condition of my labour? - It is hard!
-你说什么 -艾普斯先生 这是不对的 - What the hell? - It's all wrong. All wrong, Mr. Epps.
他们不是我雇来帮忙的 They ain't hired to help.
他们是我的私人财产 They are my property.
-而你以此为荣 -我说的是事实 - You say that with pride. - I say it as fact.
这个对话关乎什么是事实 什么不是 This conversation concerns what is fact and what's not.
那我必须说 Then it must be said.
奴隶制毫无公平和正义可言 That there is no justice, or righteousness in this slavery.
但是你确实引发了一个有意思的问题 But you do open up a interesting question.
说到底 你对你的黑奴 What right have you to your niggers
-都有什么权利 -什么权利 - when you come down to the point? - What right?
我花钱买下了他们 I bought them, I paid for them.
你是花钱买了 Of course you did,
法律也承认持有他们是你的权利 and the law say's you have the right to hold a nigger.
但是很抱歉 法律也未必都是对的 But begging the laws pardon, it lies.
假设他们颁布了新法 剥夺你的自由 Suppose they pass the law, take away your liberty,
让你变成奴隶 making you a slave.
-只是假设 -这可假设不来 - Suppose. - That ain't a supposable case.
法律会变 艾普斯 但普世真理是不变的 Laws change, Epps. Universal truths though are constant.
有一个事实 简单明了 It is a fact, a plain and simple fact
只要是真理 就对所有人都适用 that what is true and right is true and right for all.
不论是黑是白 White and black alike.
你把我和黑奴相提并论 贝斯 Yah compare me to a nigger, Bass?
我只是想问 在上帝眼里你们有什么区别 I am only asking, in the eye's of God, what is the difference?
你还不如问 Yah might as well ask
白人和狒狒有什么区别 what the difference is between a white man and a baboon.
我在奥尔良见过一只 Now, I've seen one of them critters in Orleans
和我的黑奴们一样聪明 that knowed just as much as any nigger I got.
听着 艾普斯 这些黑奴也是人 Listen, Epps... These niggers are human beings.
如果他们只能受到和动物一样的待遇 If they are allowed to claim no higher than brute animals,
总有一天你和你的同类会为此付出代价 you and men like you will have to answer for it.
艾普斯先生 一种罪恶 There's an ill, Mr. Epps,
一种可怕的罪恶 正在整个国家蔓延 a fearful ill, resting upon this nation,
总有一天 要做个了断 and there will be a day of reckoning yet.
你很享受滔滔不绝的感觉吧 贝斯 You like to hear yourself talk, Bass,
我从没见过像你这么爱说的 better than any man I know of.
你非说黑人和白人都是一样的 Yah argue that black was white, or white black.
要是有人反驳你 If anybody contradict you,
假设你是住在新英格兰的美国佬 a fine supposition if yah lived among Yankees in New England.
但你不是 But yah don't.
你根本不是 You most assuredly do not.
我知道你就躲在这儿 I know it's somewhere in there!

安息日 主人 我散个步 和上帝谈谈 The Sabbath day, massa. I took me a walk to commune with the Lord.
用上帝来骗我 Bring the Lord into yer deceptions?
你去了肖的种植园 是不是 Yah comin' from Shaw's plantation, weren't yah?
-不是 -你现在开口了 - No. - Now yah speak?
你帮着她撒谎的时候才知道说话 Now that yah want to add to her lies yah find yer tongue!
我去了肖主人的种植园 I went to Massa Shaw's plantation!
-你承认了 -是的 - You admit it? - Yes.
我自愿去的 你知道为什么吗 Freely. And you know why?
肖夫人给了我这个 I got this from Mistress Shaw.
艾普斯夫人连洗澡用的肥皂都不肯给我 Mistress Epps won't even grant me no soap ta clean with.
我身上臭得连自己都恶心 I stink so much I make myself gag.
五百磅棉花 天天如此 Five hundred pounds of cotton day in, day out!
比任何男人摘得都多 More than any man here.
而我想要的 只是干净些 And for that I will be clean;
别无他求 that's all I ask.
这就是我去肖那儿的目的 Dis here what I went to Shaw's 'fo.
-你说谎 -上帝可以作证 - Liar! - Lord knows it all!
-你说谎 -你被贪婪蒙蔽了 - You Liar! - And you blind wit yer own covetousness.
我没说谎 主人 I don't lie, Massa.
就算你杀了我 我也不会改口的 If you kill me, I'll stick to that.
行啊 我来教训你 Yeah, I'll set you down.
我让你再去肖那儿 I'll learn you to go to Shaw's.

用力 普莱特 用力 Strike her, Platt! Strike her.
你给我用力抽 Yah will strike her.

迟早有一天 Sooner or later,
在永恒正义实现的过程中 somewhere in the course of eternal justice
你会为你的罪孽遭到报应 thou shalt answer for this sin!
罪孽 我没有罪孽 Sin? There is no sin.
