Voice 1: Fifth, some people link ubuntu to spirituality, or religion.In Africa many people worship their ancestors.They believe that they are part of a long chain, or line of people.They believe that people are connected to their ancestors.And they believe people are connected to those who will live after them, or future generations.Providing for people now means that you are providing for future generations as well.

声音1:第五,一些人把乌班图与宗教信仰联系在一起。在非洲,许多人崇拜他们的祖先。他们认为自己是一大族人的一部分。他们认为人与他们的祖先是有联系的。他们认为人与他们的子孙后代也是有联系的。现在供养人也就是在供养子孙后代。

Voice 2: Christians also like the idea of ubuntu.In the Bible, Jesus says that we should care for our neighbour, the widow, and the poor. That is ubuntu.

声音2:基督徒也喜欢乌班图的理念。在《圣经》中,耶稣说我们应该关心我们的邻居、寡妇和穷人。那就是乌班图。

Voice 1: It is true that ubuntu is very popular in Africa.Ubuntu is a way of life for many people there.If it were not for ubuntu, many communities would not survive.But, ubuntu is becoming popular in many other countries as well.Rebekah Schipper tells of how she first learned about ubuntu in the United States.

声音1:的确,乌班图在非洲非常受欢迎。乌班图是那里许多人的一种生活方式。如果没有乌班图,许多社区将无法继续存在。但是,乌班图在其他许多国家也变得流行起来。丽贝卡· 席佩尔讲述了她第一次在美国学习乌班图的过程。

Voice 4: “I went to a Bible study at my friend’s house.When I got to his house, I saw that he was wearing a special shirt.The word ubuntu was written on it.I did not know the meaning of ubuntu.So, I asked my friend what it meant.He explained to me that ubuntu is a word from Africa.It means that people are connected to each other.He explained that ubuntu is important for communities.He said that when a community works together, that is ubuntu.My friend’s son gave him the shirt as a gift.The son explained to his father that their family was like an ubuntu community.”

声音4:“我去朋友家学习《圣经》。当我到他家时,我看到他穿着一件特别的衬衫。上面写着“ubuntu”这个词。我不知道“ubuntu”是什么意思。所以,我问我的朋友它是什么意思。他向我解释说,“ubuntu”是一个源自非洲的词。它的意思是人们是相互联系的。他解释说,乌班图对社区很重要。他说,当一个社区团结合作时,那就是乌班图。这件衬衫是我朋友的儿子送给他的礼物。儿子向父亲解释说,他们家就像一个乌班图社区。

Voice 2: All over the world the idea of ubuntu is growing.You can see the word ubuntu written on shirts.You can see ubuntu on signs.Companies and organizations have named themselves ubuntu.And there is even an ubuntu university!

声音2:乌班图的理念正在世界各地扩散。你可以在衬衫上看到“ubuntu”这个词。你可以在标牌上看到“ubuntu”。公司和组织将自己命名为ubuntu。甚至还有一所乌班图大学!

Voice 1: You can help to spread the idea of ubuntu where you live.Just remember, I am because you are.

声音1:你可以在你居住的地方帮助传播乌班图的理念。记住,我在因你同在。
