放在...面前

The real devotee knows the absurdity of worshipping the Transcendental Reality with material articles - clothing That which pervades the whole universe and the beyond, putting on a pedestal That which cannot be limited by space, feeding That which is disembodied and incorporeal, singing before That whose glory the music of the spheres tries vainly to proclaim.

真正的奉献者明白到崇拜物质形态的先验实体的荒谬――遍及和超越整个宇宙是包装，放在基架上的伪造物无法超越空间的限制，喂养的是无实质和无实体之物，在神像面前唱颂充满荣耀气氛的天堂音乐是徒劳。

Lots of people experience an incredible sense of relief when everything they need to think about is collected in one place in front of them, no matter how big the pile.

I like to think, as I told State Councilor Dai during a wonderfuldinner we had at the very beginning of our Strategic and EconomicDialogue, that in any important relationship, in any endeavor thatholds promise for the future, we should think about the children whomwe love, our own children, and in State Councilor Dai's case, a verynew grandchild, and almost have the pictures of those children in frontof us and ask ourselves: Are we making the decisions that will giveeach of them a better future, a more peaceful, prosperous, secureworld, a world where our children can breathe the air and drink thewater, where they can pursue their own futures if they are welleducated and healthy, where they have a chance to really make the mostof their own lives?

我常常这样想–在我们的战略与经济对话开始时举行的一次美好的晚宴上，我也曾向戴国务委员如此表示–在任何重要的关系中，在为未来作出的任何努力中，我们应该想到我们亲爱的孩子们、我们自己的孩子，戴国务委员不久前新添了一个孙女。我们甚至应当把这些孩子的照片放在我们面前，问我们自己：我们正在作出的决定是不是会给每一个孩子带来更好的前途、一个更和平、繁荣和有安全保障的世界、一个我们的孩子可以呼吸空气和喝水的世界、一个他们只要受到良好教育并且身体健康就可以追求自己的理想、有机会使自己真正生活得很好的世界？

And they made a crown of thorns and put it on his head, and put a rod in his right hand, and they

29用荆棘编做冠冕，戴在他头上，拿一根苇子放在他右手里，跪在他面前，戏弄他，说：恭喜，犹太人的王啊！

Earlier Mr Medvedev, at 42 the youngest Russian head of state since the last tsar, Nicholas II, placed his right hand on the constitution and recited the presidential oath before 2,400 guests in the Kremlin's gilded St Andrew's Hall.

现年42岁的梅德韦杰夫是自末代沙皇尼古拉斯二世以来最年轻的俄罗斯国家元首。早些时候，在克里姆林宫金碧辉煌的安德烈大厅内2400名宾客面前，他将右手放在宪法上宣誓就任总统。

I'm strongly against the death penalty — it's an eye for an eye.

我不赞成死刑——这是以牙还牙的报复行为。

And to get you the support you need, we're enlisting all elements of our national power: our diplomacy and development, our economic might and our moral suasion, so that you and the rest of our military do not bear the burden of our security alone.

并给你们所须的支援，我们正徵召国家所有各种的力量：我们的外交及发展，我们的经济力量与道德劝说，所以你们与其他军人不须要孤独地负起国家安全的责任。
