（单词翻译）

 　　But we refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt. We refuse to believe that there are insufficient1 funds in the great vaults2 of opportunity of this nation. And so, we've come to cash this check, a check that will give us upon demand the riches of freedom and the security of justice.

　　但是，我们决不相信正义的银行会破产。我们决不相信这个国家巨大的机会宝库会资金不足。因此，我们来兑现这张支票。这张支票将给我们带来所需要的宝贵的自由和正义的保障。
　　We have also come to this hallowed spot to remind America of the fierce urgency of Now. This is no time to engage in the luxury of cooling off or to take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism. Now is the time to make real the promises of democracy. Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate3 valley of segregation4 to the sunlit path of racial justice. Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice5 to the solid rock of brotherhood6. Now is the time to make justice a reality for all of God's children.
　　我们来到这块圣地还为了提醒美国：现在正是万分紧急的时刻。现在不是从容不迫悠然行事或服用渐进主义镇静剂的时候。现在是实现民主诺言的时候。现在是走出幽暗荒凉的种族隔离深谷，踏上种族平等的阳关大道的时候。现在是使我们国家走出种族不平等的流沙，踏上充满手足之情的磐石的时候。现在是使上帝所有的儿女享有公正的时刻。
