  The Pope has used his annual Christmas message to appeal for peace in conflict zones including Yemen and Syria.

  教皇在他的年度圣诞致辞中呼吁了包括也门和叙利亚在内的冲突地区实现和平。

  The two countries have both been ravaged by civil war for years, pushing their people into humanitarian crises.

  多年来,这两个国家遭受着内战的蹂躏,使得当地人民陷入人道主义危机。

  My wish for a happy Christmas is a wish for fraternity. Fraternity among individuals of every nation and culture, Pope Francis said on Tuesday.

  弗朗西斯教皇于周二说道:“我的圣诞愿望是实现友爱。各国、各文化背景人们之间的友爱。”

  The Pontiff was giving his yearly "Urbi et Orbi" (To the City and to the World) address in the Vatican.

  教皇在梵蒂冈发表了年度《致城市和世界》演说。

  My thoughts turn to Yemen, in the hope that the truce brokered by the international community may finally bring relief to all those children and people exhausted by war and famine, he said from the balcony of St Peter’s Basilica, addressing the square below.

  他在圣彼得大教堂的阳台上对楼下广场的人们说道:“我的思绪转到也门,希望国际社会促成休战,最终为所有因战争和饥荒而变得筋疲力尽的儿童和人民带来解脱。”

  He also said he hoped the international community would "work decisively for a political solution" in Syria - a country that is approaching its eighth year of civil war.

  他还表示,他希望国际社会“果断地在叙利亚实现政治解决方案”。叙利亚内战已经接近第八个年头。

  So that the Syrian people, especially all those who were forced to leave their own lands and seek refuge elsewhere, can return to live in peace in their own country, he added.

  他指出:“如此,叙利亚人民,特别是那些被迫离开自己的家园,到别处寻求庇护的人们,就可以回到自己的国家,在和平中生活。”

  The United Nations says more than 6 million civilians have been displaced there since the war there began.

  联合国表示,自从开战以来,已经有600多万平民流离失所。

  His address also alluded to worldwide tensions over migration, saying that God wanted "love, acceptance, respect" throughout all humanity.

  教皇的演讲还提到了世界因移民问题而引发的紧张关系。他说道,上帝希望“爱、接纳、尊重”贯穿整个人类社会。

  Our differences, then, are not a detriment or a danger - they are a source of richness, he said.

  “因此,我们之间的分歧不是一种损害或危险,而是财富的源泉。”

  Pope Francis revealed his hope for renewed talks between the Israelis and Palestinians to undertake a journey of peace that can put an end to a conflict.

  弗朗西斯教皇透露,他希望以色列和巴勒斯坦重启谈判,开启和平之旅,结束对立冲突。
