Many years ago, there was an Emperor, who was so excessively fond of new clothes, that he spent all his money in dress.
옛날 옛적에 새 옷을 너무나 좋아하여 자기 재산을 전부 옷 사는 데 써버린 황제가 있었습니다.
He did not trouble himself in the least about his soldiers; nor did he care to go either to the theatre or the chase, except for the opportunities then afforded him for displaying his new clothes.
그는 자기 병사들에 대해서는 조금도 신경 쓰지 않았고, 새 옷을 자랑할 기회가 있을 때를 제외하고는 극장이나 사냥터에도 가고 싶어 하지 않았다.
He had a different suit for each hour of the day; and as of any other king or emperor, one is accustomed to say, “he is sitting in council,” it was always said of him, “The Emperor is sitting in his wardrobe.”
그는 하루 중 매시간 다른 옷을 입었고, 다른 왕이나 황제와 마찬가지로 “그가 회의에 앉아 있다”라고 말하는 것이 관례였듯이, 그에 대해서도 항상 “황제가 자기 옷장에 앉아 있다”라고 말했습니다.
Time passed merrily in the large town which was his capital; strangers arrived every day at the court.
그의 수도였던 큰 도시에서는 시간이 즐겁게 흘러갔고, 매일 낯선 사람들이 궁궐에 도착했습니다.
One day, two rogues, calling themselves weavers, made their appearance.
어느 날, 자신들을 직공이라 칭하는 두 악당이 나타났습니다.
They gave out that they knew how to weave stuffs of the most beautiful colors and elaborate patterns, the clothes manufactured from which should have the wonderful property of remaining invisible to everyone who was unfit for the office he held, or who was extraordinarily simple in character.
그들은 가장 아름다운 색깔과 정교한 무늬의 직물을 짜는 방법을 알고 있다고 말했는데, 그 옷은 자기가 맡은 직책에 부적합하거나 성격이 매우 순진한 사람에게는 보이지 않는다는 놀라운 특성을 지니고 있다고 했습니다.
“These must, indeed, be splendid clothes!”
“참으로 이 옷들은 훌륭한 옷임이 틀림없다!”
thought the Emperor.
황제는 생각했다.
