IN CONGRESS, JULY 4, 1776.
THE UNANIMOUS
DECLARATION
OF THE
THIRTEEN UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
Documents from the Continental Congress
WHEN, in the Course of human Events, it becomes necessary for one People to dissolve the Political Bands which have connected them with another, and to assume, among the Powers of the Earth, the separate and equal Station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's GOD entitle them, a decent Respect to the Opinions of Mankind requires that they should declare the Causes which impel them to the Separation.
人間らしい波乱の成り行きに操られて、一方の国民にとって、もう一方の国民と彼らを繋いで来た政治的箍(たが)を外す事が、又、世界の強国の間(はざま)で、分離平等の停車駅を装う事が、不可避の様相を呈する時、自然の女神の、自然の男神の原理に則って、人の思う所に対する然るべき敬意が、独立を促す大義を宣言すベきである、と請い願う権利を彼らに与える。

We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed, by their CREATOR, with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these Rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed, that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these Ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its Foundation on such Principles, and organizing its Powers in such Form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate, that Governments long established, should not be changed for light and transient Causes; and accordingly all Experience hath shewn, that Mankind are more disposed to suffer, while Evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the Forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long Train of Abuses and Usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a Design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their Right, it is their Duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future Security. Such has been the patient Sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the Necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The History of the present King of Great-Britain is a History of repeated Injuries and Usurpations, all having in direct Object the Establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid World.
私達は、全ての人が平等を齎されるという、又私達の創造主によって生存、自由、そして幸福の追求を含む、確かな従わざるを得ない公正さを授けられているという、これらの真理に自明であるが故にしがみ付いた。--これらの公正さを確実にする為に、政府は人々の間に設けられ、統治の同意から彼らの権限そのものを引き出している。

どのような政府の形態であろうとその終局に向け破滅的様相を呈す度にそれを改めようとするか或いは廃止しようとするか、又新政府を設けようとするかは国民の公正さに基ずく。
このような原則を拠り所とすると、又このような形態にその力を結集すると、彼らにしてみればおそらく彼らの安全や幸福を齎すかのように思える。思慮分別が、実際には、長く定着した政府は些細な一過性の理由の為に変えられるべきではないと決定するであろう。

21:20 2016/06/21火

従って、悪行が許容出来る間は、慣れている形態を廃止して自身を正す事より、人は更に痛手を被ろうとする傾向があるという事をあらゆる経験が証明して来た。何れにせよ何時も同じ目標を追うだけの、虐待と侵害の長い列車が、絶対的独裁体制下、彼らを減らす計画を明示する時、このような政府を追い払う事、又彼らの未来の安全の為に新しい番人を供給する事、それは彼らの公正さに基ずき、それが彼らの義務である。

21:01 2016/06/22水

このような事はこれら植民地の忍耐強い黙許に基ずくのが常であった。又このような事は今や嘗ての政治体制を改めざるを得ない必然的な事項である。残っている大ブりタン島の国王の歴史は再三に渡る侵害と略奪の歴史である。これらの国家を支配する絶対専制政治の権力機構を完全に嫌悪されながらの。これを証明するには現実が公平な世の中に押し切られるが侭にせよ。

HE has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public Good.

HE has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing Importance, unless suspended in their Operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.

HE has refused to pass other Laws for the Accommodation of large Districts of People, unless those People would relinquish the Right of Representation in the Legislature, a Right inestimable to them, and formidable to Tyranny only.

HE has called together Legislative Bodies at Places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the Depository of their public Records, for the sole Purpose of fatiguing them into Compliance with his Measures.

HE has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly Firmness his Invasions on the Rights of the People.

HE has refused for a long Time, after such Dissolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the Legislative Powers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned to the People at large for their exercise; the State remaining, in the mean Time, exposed to all the Dangers of Invasion from without, and Convulsions within.

HE has endeavoured to prevent the Population of these States; for that Purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their Migrations hither, and raising the Conditions of new Appropriations of Lands.

HE has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary Powers.

HE has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the Tenure of their Offices, and the Amount and Payment of their Salaries.

HE has erected a Multitude of new Offices, and sent hither Swarms of Officers to harrass our People, and eat out their Substance.

HE has kept among us, in Times of Peace, Standing Armies, without the Consent of our Legislatures.

HE has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil Power.

HE has combined with others to subject us to a Jurisdiction foreign to our Constitution, and unacknowledged by our Laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:

FOR quartering large Bodies of Armed Troops among us:

FOR protecting them, by a mock Trial, from Punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:

FOR cutting off our Trade with all Parts of the World:

FOR imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:

FOR depriving us, in many Cases, of the Benefits of Trial by Jury:

FOR transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended Offences:

FOR abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring Province, establishing therein an arbitrary Government, and enlarging its Boundaries, so as to render it at once an Example and fit Instrument for introducing the same absolute Rule into these Colonies:

FOR taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:

FOR suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with Power to legislate for us in all Cases whatsoever.

HE has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection, and waging War against us.

HE has plundered our Seas, ravaged our Coasts, burnt our Towns, and destroyed the Lives of our People.

HE is, at this Time, transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to complete the Works of Death, Desolation, and Tyranny, already begun with Circumstances of Cruelty and Perfidy, scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous Ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized Nation.

HE has constrained our Fellow-Citizens, taken Captive on the high Seas, to bear Arms against their Country, to become the Executioners of their Friends and Brethren, or to fall themselves by their Hands.

HE has excited domestic Insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the Inhabitants of our Frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages, whose known Rule of Warfare, is an undistinguished Destruction, of all Ages, Sexes, and Conditions.

IN every Stage of these Oppressions we have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble Terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated Injury. A Prince, whose Character is thus marked by every Act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the Ruler of a free People.

NOR have we been wanting in Attentions to our British Brethren. We have warned them, from Time to Time, of Attempts by their Legislature to extend an unwarrantable Jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the Circumstances of our Emigration and Settlement here. We have appealed to their native Justice and Magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the Ties of our common Kindred to disavow these Usurpations, which would inevitably interrupt our Connexions and Correspondence. They too have been deaf to the Voice of Justice and of Consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the Necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the Rest of Mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.

WE, therefore, the Representatives of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, in GENERAL CONGRESS Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the World for the Rectitude of our Intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly Publish and Declare, That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be, FREE AND INDEPENDENT STATES; that they are absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political Connexion between them and the State of Great-Britain, is, and ought to be, totally dissolved; and that as FREE AND INDEPENDENT STATES, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which INDEPENDENT STATES may of Right do. And for the Support of this Declaration, with a firm Reliance on the Protection of DIVINE PROVIDENCE, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honour.

アメリカ大使館のUnited States Declaration of Independence4(アメリカ独立宣言)翻訳は、誤訳である。駐日アメリカ大使ケネディは、米子にしょっちゅう長期滞在する。こうした翻訳を私から盗み、国際基督教大学、青山学院大学、早稲田大学、慶応大学、成蹊大学等親米大学教師と共に、様々な、過去の日米関係外交文書、米国歴史、米国文学書の改竄と捏造、それに伴う和訳作業を米子市で村上春樹らと米子市民の土地家屋を略奪した上で、市民の税金、年金、健康保険、生命保険、介護保険、町内会費まで強奪して愚行を展開している。

駐日アメリカ大使ケネディは、アイルランド系米国人の所為か、翻訳文章は、英国に礼を失すものとなっている。とはいえ、彼女!は、実はケネディとは無縁、整形を繰り返す破廉恥な男に過ぎない。鳩山邦夫氏、石原慎太郎は、亡くなって数年経過しているが、駐日アメリカ大使ケネディが殺害に関係している事は、明らかである。
