Captain Peleg, said Bildad steadily, thy conscience may be drawing ten inches of water, or ten fathoms, I can't tell;
噢，法勒船長，你的良心也許能讓船多吃上幾英寸的水，這和我們關系不大，
but as thou art still an impenitent man, Captain Peleg, I greatly fear lest thy conscience be but a leaky one;
但是你還是一個不知悔改的人,法勒船長,我非常怕你的良心滲漏;
and will in the end sink thee foundering down to the fiery pit, Captain Peleg.
可你不要還沒把大家沉到水里就先沉到了火坑里！
Fiery pit! fiery pit! ye insult me, man; past all natural bearing, ye insult me. It's an all-fired outrage to tell any human creature that he's bound to hell.
火坑，火坑！你敢這樣侮辱我！該死的比勒達，你敢隨隨便便地侮辱人，你等著下地獄吧。
Flukes and flames! Bildad, say that again to me, and start my soul-bolts, but I'll—I'll—yes, I'll swallow a live goat with all his hair and horns on.
你如果再說一遍，我就絕對不客氣了！
Out of the cabin, ye canting, drab-coloured son of a wooden gun—a straight wake with ye!
你這個混蛋！你這個強盜的子孫，滾出去！滾！ 他破口大罵，怒不可遏地沖向比勒達。
As he thundered out this he made a rush at Bildad, but with a marvellous oblique, sliding celerity, Bildad for that time eluded him.
比勒達一閃身，躲開了他。比勒達正如喪家之犬般地躲避著憤怒的法勒船長。
