2: MEETING WITH MARLEY 2: TREFFEN MIT MARLEY 2: ENCONTRO COM MARLEY 2: ВСТРЕЧА С МАРЛИ 2: ЗУСТРІЧ З МАРЛІ

Jacob Marley. The same face: the very same. Marley in his pigtail, usual waistcoat and boots. |||косичка||жилет|| Marley w swoim warkoczu, zwykłej kamizelce i butach. Marley com a sua trança, colete e botas habituais. The chain he drew was clasped about his middle. Łańcuch, który wyciągnął, był zapięty na jego środku. A corrente que desenhava estava presa ao seu meio. It was long, and wound about him like a tail; and it was made of cash-boxes, keys, padlocks and heavy purses wrought in steel. Była długa i owijała się wokół niego jak ogon, a zrobiona była ze skrzynek z gotówką, kluczy, kłódek i ciężkich sakiewek okutych stalą. His body was transparent; so that Scrooge, observing him, and looking through his waistcoat, could see the two buttons on his coat behind. Jego ciało było przezroczyste, tak że Scrooge, obserwując go i patrząc przez jego kamizelkę, mógł zobaczyć dwa guziki jego płaszcza z tyłu. Though Scrooge looked the phantom through and through, and saw it standing before him; though he felt the chilling influence of its deathcold eyes and marked the very texture of the folded handkerchief bound about its head and chin (which he'd not observed before) he was still incredulous, and fought against his senses. |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||skeptical||||| Chociaż Scrooge przejrzał upiora na wylot i zobaczył go stojącego przed nim; chociaż poczuł mrożący krew w żyłach wpływ jego zimnych jak śmierć oczu i zauważył fakturę złożonej chustki zawiązanej na jego głowie i brodzie (której wcześniej nie zauważył), wciąż był niedowierzający i walczył ze swoimi zmysłami. ‘How now!' he said, caustic and cold as ever. ||sarcastic and biting|||| powiedział, żrący i zimny jak zawsze. ‘What do you want with me?' ‘Much!' Marley's voice, no doubt about it. ‘Who are you?' asked Scrooge. ‘Ask me who I was,' stated the Ghost. ‘Who were you then?' said Scrooge, raising his voice. ‘In life I was your partner, Jacob Marley.' ‘Can you - can you sit down?' asked Scrooge, looking doubtfully at him. ‘I can.' ‘Do it then,' asked Scrooge. Scrooge asked the question, because he didn't know whether a ghost so transparent might be able to take to a chair, and felt that in the event of its being impossible, it might involve the necessity of an embarrassing explanation. Scrooge zadał to pytanie, ponieważ nie wiedział, czy duch tak przezroczysty może być w stanie usiąść na krześle i czuł, że w przypadku, gdyby było to niemożliwe, może to wiązać się z koniecznością kłopotliwego wyjaśnienia. But the Ghost sat down on the opposite side of the freplace, as if he were quite used to it. Mas o Fantasma sentou-se no lado oposto do freplace, como se estivesse habituado a isso. ‘You don't believe in me,' observed the Ghost. ‘I don't,' said Scrooge. ‘What evidence would you have of my reality beyond that of your senses?' continued the Ghost. ‘I don't know,' said Scrooge. ‘Why do you doubt your senses?' asked the Ghost. ‘Because,' said Scrooge, ‘a little thing may affect them. A slight disorder of the stomach. You might be an undigested bit of beef, a blot of mustard, a crumb of cheese, a fragment of an underdone potato. There's more of gravy than of grave about you, whatever you are!' Jest w tobie więcej sosu niż grobu, kimkolwiek jesteś!". Scrooge was not much in the habit of cracking jokes, nor did he feel, in his heart, by any means waggish then. Scrooge nie miał w zwyczaju żartować, a w głębi serca nie czuł się wtedy w żaden sposób dowcipny. The truth is, that he tried to be smart, as a means of distracting his own attention, and keeping down his terror, for the Spectre's voice disturbed the very marrow in his bones. Prawda jest taka, że starał się być sprytny, aby odwrócić swoją uwagę i powstrzymać przerażenie, ponieważ głos Widma poruszył sam szpik w jego kościach. ‘You see this toothpick?' 'Estão a ver este palito? said Scrooge, returning quickly to his Download mp3 of this episodepoint and wishing, though it were only for a second, to divert the vision's stony gaze from himself. powiedział Scrooge, szybko wracając do swojego Download mp3 z tego epizodu i pragnąc, choć tylko na sekundę, odwrócić od siebie kamienny wzrok wizji. ‘I do,' replied the Ghost. ‘You're not looking at it,' said Scrooge. But I see it,' said the Ghost. ‘Well!' returned Scrooge, ‘I have but to swallow this, and be for the rest of my days persecuted by a legion of goblins, all of my own creation. odparł Scrooge - "Muszę tylko to przełknąć i do końca moich dni będę prześladowany przez legion goblinów, które sam stworzyłem". Humbug, I tell you; humbug!' At this the spirit raised a frightful cry, and shook its chain with such a dismal and appalling noise, that Scrooge held on tight to his chair, to save himself from falling in a swoon. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||fainting spell O espírito soltou um grito assustador e sacudiu a sua corrente com um ruído tão sombrio e terrível que Scrooge se agarrou à cadeira para não cair num desmaio. But how much greater was his horror, when the phantom, taking off the bandage round its head - as if it were too warm to wear indoors - its lower jaw dropped down upon its chest! Scrooge fell upon his knees, and clasped his hands before his face. ‘Mercy!' he said. ‘Dreadful apparition, why do you trouble me?' Terrifying|ghostly figure||||| ‘Do you believe in me or not?'' replied the Ghost. ‘I do! I must. But why do spirits walk the earth, and why do they come to me?' ‘It is required of every man,' the Ghost returned, ‘that the spirit within him should walk among his fellow-men, and travel far and wide; and if that spirit goes not forth in life, it is condemned to do so after death. It is doomed to wander through the world and witness what it cannot share, but might have shared on earth, and turned to happiness!' Jest skazany na wędrówkę przez świat i bycie świadkiem tego, czego nie może dzielić, ale mógłby dzielić na ziemi i zamienić w szczęście! Again the Spectre raised a cry, and shook its chain, and wrung its shadowy hands. |||||||||||Twisted tightly squeezed||| Ponownie Widmo podniosło krzyk, potrząsnęło łańcuchem i wykręciło cieniste ręce. ‘You are chained,' said Scrooge, trembling. ‘Tell me why?' ‘I wear the chain I forged in life,' replied the Ghost. ‘I made it link by link, and yard by yard; I girded it on of my own free will, and of my own free will I wore it. "Zrobiłem go ogniwo po ogniwie i jard po jardzie; z własnej woli go przepasałem i z własnej woli go nosiłem. Is its pattern strange to you?' Scrooge trembled more and more. ‘Or would you know the weight and length of the chain you bear yourself? It was full as heavy and as long as this, seven Christmas Eves ago. You have laboured on it, since. Anh đã làm việc vất vả với nó từ đó. It is a ponderous chain!' É uma corrente pesada! Đó là một sự chuỗi nặng nề!' Scrooge glanced about him on the floor, in the expectation of fnding himself surrounded by some ffty or sixty fathoms of iron cable: but he could see nothing. Scrooge rozejrzał się po podłodze, spodziewając się, że zostanie otoczony przez jakieś pięćdziesiąt lub sześćdziesiąt sążni żelaznego kabla, ale nic nie widział. Scrooge liếc nhìn xung quanh mình trên sàn, trong kỳ vọng sẽ thấy bản thân mình bị bao quanh bởi khoảng năm mươi hoặc sáu mươi thước sắt: nhưng anh không thấy gì. ‘Jacob,' he said, imploringly. ‘Tell me more. Speak comfort to me, Jacob.' ‘I have none to give,' the Ghost replied. ‘Comfort comes from other regions, Ebenezer Scrooge, and is conveyed to other kinds of men. ‘An ủi đến từ các vùng khác, Ebenezer Scrooge, và được truyền đến các loại người khác. Nor can I tell you what I would. Tôi không thể nói cho bạn biết điều tôi muốn. A very little more, is all that is permitted to me. Chỉ một chút nữa, là tất cả điều được phép với tôi. I cannot rest, I cannot stay, I cannot linger anywhere. In life my spirit never walked beyond our counting-house - and now weary journeys lie before me!' Em vida, o meu espírito nunca andou para além da nossa casa de contagem - e agora tenho diante de mim viagens cansativas! It was a habit with Scrooge, whenever he became thoughtful, to put hishands in his breeches pockets. Pondering what the Ghost had said, he did so now, but without lifting up his eyes, or getting off his knees. ‘You must have been very slow about it, Jacob,' Scrooge observed, in a business-like manner, though with humility and deference. ||||||||||||||||||||respectful submission ‘Slow!' the Ghost repeated. ‘Seven years dead,' mused Scrooge. ‘And travelling all that time?' ‘The whole time,' said the Ghost. ‘No rest, no peace. Incessant torture of remorse.' Unending|||constant guilt feelings Nieustanne tortury wyrzutów sumienia". ‘You travel fast?' said Scrooge. ‘On the wings of the wind,' replied the Ghost. ‘You might have got over a great quantity of ground in seven years,' said Scrooge. The Ghost, on hearing this, set up another cry, and clanked its chain hideously in the dead silence of the night. ‘Oh! captive, bound, and double-ironed,' cried the Phantom, ‘and not to know that any space of regret can make amends for one life's opportunities misused! zniewolony, związany i podwójnie wyprasowany - zawołał Upiór - i nie wiedzieć, że jakakolwiek chwila żalu może zadośćuczynić za źle wykorzystane życiowe okazje! Yet such was I! Oh! such was I!' ‘But you were always a good man of business, Jacob,' faultered Scrooge, who now began to apply this to himself. ‘Business!' cried the Ghost, wringing its hands again. ‘Mankind was my business. The common welfare was my business; charity, mercy, benevolence were my business. Dobro ogółu było moją sprawą; dobroczynność, miłosierdzie, życzliwość były moją sprawą. The dealings of my trade were but a drop of water in the comprehensive ocean of my business!' It held up its chain at arm's length, as if it were the cause of all its unavailing grief, and flung it heavily upon the ground again. Trzymał łańcuch na wyciągnięcie ręki, jakby to on był przyczyną całego jego bezskutecznego smutku, i ponownie rzucił go ciężko na ziemię. Levantou a corrente à distância de um braço, como se fosse a causa de toda a sua dor inútil, e voltou a atirá-la pesadamente para o chão. ‘This is the time of year I suffer most,' the Spectre said. ‘Why did I walk through crowds of fellow-beings with my eyes turned down, and never raise them to that blessed star which led the wise men to a poor abode? "Dlaczego szedłem przez tłumy bliźnich ze spuszczonymi oczami i nigdy nie podniosłem ich na tę błogosławioną gwiazdę, która doprowadziła mędrców do ubogiego miejsca zamieszkania? Were there no poor homes to which its light would have led me!' Scrooge was very much dismayed to hear the Spectre going on at this rate, and he began to quake exceedingly. ‘Hear me!' cried the Ghost. ‘My time is nearly gone.' ‘I will,' said Scrooge. ‘But don't be hard upon me, Jacob!' Mas não sejas duro comigo, Jacob! ‘How is it that I appear before you in a shape that you can see, I may not tell. I have sat invisible beside you many and many a day.' It was not an agreeable idea. Scrooge shivered and wiped the perspiration from his brow. Scrooge estremeceu e limpou o suor da testa. Scrooge run rẩt và lau mồ hôi khỏi trán. ‘That is no light part of my penance,' pursued the Ghost. |||||||self-punishment||| ‘Điều đó không phải là một phần nhẹ của sự ăn năn của tôi,' tiếp tục Ma quái. ‘I am here tonight to warn you, that you have yet a chance and hope of escaping my fate. ‘Tôi ở đây đêm nay để cảnh báo bạn rằng bạn vẫn còn cơ hội và hi vọng để thoát khỏi số phận của tôi. A chance and hope of my procuring, Ebenezer.' ‘Là một cơ hội và hy vọng do tôi tạo ra, Ebenezer.' ‘You were always a good friend to me,' said Scrooge. ‘Anh luôn là một người bạn tốt đối với tôi,' nói Scrooge. ‘Thank'ee!' ‘Cảm ơn anh!' ‘You will be haunted,' resumed theGhost, ‘by Three Spirits.' Scrooge's countenance fell almost as low as the Ghost's had done. |facial expression dropped||||||||| Wyraz twarzy Scrooge'a obniżył się niemal tak samo, jak u Ducha. ‘Is that the chance and hope you mentioned, Jacob?' he demanded, in a faltering voice. ||||hesitant or unsteady| ‘It is.' ‘I - I think I'd rather not,' said Scrooge. ‘Without their visits you cannot hope to shun the path I tread. |||||||avoid||||walk upon Expect the frst tomorrow, when the bell tolls one.' ‘Couldn't I take ‘em all at once, and have it all over, Jacob?' hinted Scrooge. ‘Expect the second on the next night at the same hour. ‘Dự kiến sự thứ hai vào đêm tiếp theo vào cùng giờ. The third upon the next night when the last stroke of twelve has ceased to vibrate. Sự thứ ba vào đêm tiếp theo khi tiếng đồng hồ cuối cùng của mười hai đã ngừng rung. Look to see me no more; and look that, for your own sake, you remember what has passed between us.' Hãy nhìn thấy tôi không còn nữa; và hãy nhớ rằng, vì lợi ích của bản thân bạn, bạn hãy nhớ điều đã qua giữa chúng ta.' When it had said these words, the spectre took its handkerchief from the table and bound it round its head, as before. Depois de ter dito estas palavras, o espetro pegou no seu lenço que estava em cima da mesa e amarrou-o à volta da cabeça, como antes. Scrooge knew this by the smart sound its teeth made, when the jaws were brought together by the bandage. He ventured to raise his eyes again, and found his supernatural visitor confronting him in an upright posture, with its chain wound over and about its arm. Ousou erguer de novo os olhos e encontrou o seu visitante sobrenatural em posição vertical, com a corrente enrolada no braço. The apparition walked backward from him; and at every step it took, the window raised itself a little, so that when the spectre reached it, it was wide open. It beckoned Scrooge to approach, which he did. When they were within two paces of each other, Marley's Ghost held up its hand, warning him to come no nearer. Scrooge stopped. Not so much in obedience, as in surprise and fear: for on the raising of the hand, he became sensible of confused noises in the air; incoherent sounds of lamentation and regret; wailings inexpressibly sorrowful. Nie tyle w posłuszeństwie, co w zaskoczeniu i strachu, ponieważ po podniesieniu ręki wyczuł w powietrzu zdezorientowane odgłosy; niespójne dźwięki lamentu i żalu; zawodzenia niewymownie smutne. The Spectre, after listening for a moment, joined in the mournful dirge and floated out upon the bleak, dark night. Scrooge followed to the window: desperate in his curiosity. He looked out. The air was flled with phantoms, wandering hither and thither and moaning as they went. Every one of them wore chains like Marley's Ghost; some few were linked together; none were free. Many had been personally known to Scrooge in their lives. He'd been quite familiar with one old ghost, in a white waistcoat, with a monstrous iron safe attached to its ankle. It cried piteously at being unable to assist a wretched woman with an infant, whom it saw below, upon a door-step. The misery with them all was clearly, that they sought to interfere for good in human matters...and had lost the power for ever. Whether these creatures faded into mist, or mist enshrouded them, he could not tell. Nie potrafił powiedzieć, czy te stworzenia rozpłynęły się we mgle, czy też mgła je spowiła. But they and their spirit voices faded together; and the night became as it had been when he walked home. Scrooge closed the window, and examined the door by which the Ghost had entered. It was still locked, as he had locked it with his own hands, and the bolts were undisturbed. Ainda estava trancada, como ele a tinha trancado com as suas próprias mãos, e os ferrolhos estavam intactos. He tried to say ‘Humbug!' but stopped at the frst syllable. Whether from the emotion he'd undergone...or the fatigues of the day...or the conversation of the Ghost...or the lateness of the hour, he was much in need of rest. Dù từ cảm xúc mà anh đã trải qua...hoặc từ sự mệt mỏi của cả ngày...hoặc từ cuộc trò chuyện với hồn ma...hoặc từ giờ đã khuya, anh cần phải nghỉ ngơi nhiều hơn. He went straight to bed, without undressing, and fell asleep upon the instant. Anh đi thẳng vào giường mà không cởi quần áo, và ngủ một cách ngay lập tức.
