《圣经》和合本与吕振中本翻译特色对比

A Contrast of Translation Features between Chinese Union Version and Lv Zhenzhong Version

《圣经》和合本与吕振中本由于遵循的翻译原则和方法不同,都展现了各自的特色。和合本虽注重忠实于原文,却不失中文的韵气,但行文因时代的关系显得文雅古旧,也因此更符合作为宗教经典的载体。吕振中译本最宝贵的价值就在于它忠实地把希腊、希伯来原文《圣经》直译成中文,正因其所特有的准确忠实,使得语言词句较生硬枯燥,甚至不够自然。

The Chinese union version of Bible and Lv Zhenzhong version of Bible, following different translation princi- ples, demonstrate their respective characteristics. The Chinese union version is faithful to the original, rhyme, antiquated, thus complying with the classical religious version, while Lv Zhenzhong version is faithfully translates Bible literally into Greek and Hebrew, which is dull and unnatural.
