英国语文第五册(双语):西拿基立的军队的毁灭(1)
LESSON 2 The destruction of Sennacherib's army
第二课 西拿基立的军队的毁灭
The Assyrian came down like the wolf on the fold,
亚述人像狼群似的来了
And his cohorts were gleaming with purple and gold,
王的军队眼中流露出喜悦的光芒
And the sheen of their spears was like stars on the sea,
他们手中的矛闪着光泽好似海上的金星
When the blue waves roll nightly on deep Galilee.
在蓝色的巨浪夜夜朝深刻的加利利翻滚之时
Like the leaves of the forest when summer is green,
像夏日森林里的绿叶
That host with their banners at sunset were seen;
他们在日落时分举着旗帜
Like the leaves of the forest when autumn hath blown,
像秋天时树林的树叶
That host on the morrow lay withered and strown.
第二天他们就凋零并散播出去
For the Angel of Death spread his wings on the blast,
因为死亡天使在疾风中展翅
And breathed in the face of the foe as he passed;
并在他经过的敌人面前吸气
