Merry Christmas everybody!
祝大家圣誕節(jié)快樂！
Now, we're not going to take much of your time because today is about family and being together with the ones you love.
今天我們不會占用大家太多時間，因為今天是和家人、和親愛的人相聚的日子。
And luckily for me, that means I get a little help on the weekly address, too.
今天我比較幸運，我的每周講話能有人來給我?guī)蛶兔α恕?/div>
The holidays at the White House are such a wonderful time of year.
每年的圣誕假期都是白宮最歡樂的日子。
We fill the halls with decorations,Christmas trees, and carolers-and this year, we invited morethan 65,000 people to join us.
所有的廳堂都放置了圣誕樹，裝飾一新，歡歌不斷，今年，我們邀請了65000多人與我們一起過節(jié)。
Our theme was “A Children's Winter Wonderland”-and Americans young and old had achance to come together and celebrate the season.
今年的節(jié)日主題是：孩子們冬天里的奇幻樂園，全美所有老老少少都能有機會一起共同歡度這個假期。
And today, our family will join millions across the country in celebrating the birth of Jesus-the birth not just of a baby in a manger,but of a message that has changed the world:
今天，我們一家將與全國無數(shù)家庭一起共同慶祝耶穌的誕辰，這不僅僅是一個嬰兒在馬槽里誕生的日子，更是由于他的誕生為世界帶來改變的福音：
to reach out to the sick; the hungry; the troubled; and above all else, to love one another as we would be loved ourselves.
幫助我們應對 、饑餓、困難乃至所有，讓我們愛護自己并愛護他人。
We hope that this holiday season will be a chance for us to live out that message
我們希望這個假期能讓我們有機會傳遞出這樣的信息：
to bridge our differences and lift up our families, friends, and neighbors and to reconnect with the values that bind us together.
架起橋梁、求同存異，激勵我們的家人朋友、左鄰右舍重拾昔日的價值，團結奮進。
And as a country, that also means celebrating and honoring those who have served and sacrificedfor all of us—our troops, veterans, and their families.
從國家而言，我們應該向所有為國服務并做出犧牲的人致敬，那就是我們的軍人、退伍老兵以及他們的家人。
In just a few days, our combat mission in Afghanistan will be over.
再過幾天，我們在阿富汗的戰(zhàn)斗就將全面結束。
Our longest war will come to a responsible end.
這一曠日持久的戰(zhàn)爭將正式結束。
And that gives us an opportunity to step back and reflect upon all that these families have given us.
這也讓我們有機會回過頭來回顧這些家庭為我們付出的東西。
We're able to gather with family and friends because our troops are willing to hug their goodbye and step forward to serve.
我們能夠與家人朋友團聚，正是因為我們的軍人愿意與他們的家人分別，前往那些需要他們的地方。
After a long day, we can comehome because they're willing to leave their families and deploy.
經(jīng)過漫長的一天，我們能夠回家是因為他們愿意離開他們的家人，前往他們駐防的地方。
We can celebrate the holidaysbecause they're willing to miss their own.
我們能夠歡慶節(jié)日是因為他們寧愿自己不過這個節(jié)日。
And so, as our troops continue to transition back home—back to our businesses, our schools, our congregations, and our communities
因此，我們的軍人將陸續(xù)回國，回到我們的企業(yè)中，回到我們的學校里，回到我們的教會和社區(qū)，
it's up to all of us to servethem as well as they have served us.
而我們應該準備好為他們服務，就像他們曾經(jīng)為我們付出一樣。
You can visit JoiningForces.gov to find out how you can honor and support the troops, veterans,and military families in your communities.
大家可以訪問JoiningForces.gov，找到合適的方式，向你所在社區(qū)的軍人、退伍老兵以及軍屬家庭表達敬意并提供幫助。
That's something we can do not only during the holiday season, but all year round.
這些事情不僅僅是我們在節(jié)日里可以做的，全年都可以做。
So Merry Christmas, everybody. May God bless you all.
總統(tǒng)：最后，祝大家圣誕節(jié)快樂！愿上帝保佑大家。
And we wish you andyour family a happy and healthy 2015.
祝愿你們和你們的家人2015年健康快樂！
