苏鲁支望著人群，甚惊奇。
Then he spoke thus:Man is a rope stretched between the animal and the Superman--a rope over an abyss.
便如是说：人便是一根索子，联系於禽兽与超人间——驾空于深渊之上。
A dangerous crossing, a dangerous wayfaring, a dangerous looking-back, a dangerous trembling and halting.
是，危险过渡，一危险底征途，一危险底回顾，一危险底战栗与停住。
What is great in man is that he is a bridge and not a goal: what is lovable in man is that he is an OVER-GOING and a DOWN-GOING.
人之伟大，在于其为桥梁，而不是目的;人之可爱，在于其为过渡与下落。
I love those that know not how to live except as down-goers, for they are the over-goers.
我爱，不知道生活的人，便是堕落者，然而是过渡者。
I love the great despisers, because they are the great adorers, and arrows of longing for the other shore.
我爱，大蔑视者，因为他们是大崇敬者，向彼岸的遥情的羽箭。
I love those who do not first seek a reason beyond the stars for going down and being sacrifices,
我爱，不求有物于星球之外的人，以堕落而自为牺牲，
but sacrifice themselves to the earth, that the earth of the Superman may hereafter arrive.
却牺牲于土地，使此土地有一日将归于超人。
I love him who lives in order to know, and seeks to know in order that the Superman may hereafter live.
我爱，因求知而生活的人，求知，使超人得以生。
Thus seeks he his own down-going.
如是自求其堕落。
I love him who labors and invents, that he may build the house for the Superman,
我爱，工作着发明着的人，意在建超人之所居，
and prepare for him earth, animal, and plant: for thus seeks he his own down-going.
为之安排土地，禽畜，花木，如是自求其堕落。
I love him who loves his virtue: for virtue is the will to down-going, and an arrow of longing.
我爱，自爱其德行的人，因其德行为堕落之意志，与遥情的羽箭。
I love him who reserves no share of spirit for himself, but wants to be wholly the spirit of his virtue: thus walks he as spirit over the bridge.
我爱，不保留一涓滴精神于己的人，却欲为其德行的整个精神，他犹如精灵走过这桥梁。
I love him who makes his virtue his inclination and destiny: thus, for the sake of his virtue, he is willing to live on, or live no more.
我爱，以德行为倾向为运命的人，他为德行之故欲犹有生且欲无生。
I love him who desires not too many virtues.
我爱，不欲德艺过多的人，
One virtue is more of a virtue than two, because it is more of a knot for one's destiny to cling to.
一德多于二德，因其更成为附系运命的结子。
I love him whose soul is lavish, who wants no thanks and does not give back: for he always bestows, and desires not to keep for himself.
我爱，其心灵甚奢费的人，不欲人谢，不为报答，因其时时赠与，不欲自有遗留。
