First they came for the communists, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist.
 

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist.
 

Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Jew.
 

Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak out for me.

 

[中文]

“起初,他們追殺共產主義者,我沒有說話,因為我不是共產主義者;

接著,他們追殺猶太人, 我沒有說話,因為我不是猶太人;

接著,他們追殺工會成員, 我沒有說話,因為我不是工會成員;

接著,他們追殺天主教徒, 我沒有說話,因為我是新教徒;

接著,他們奔我而來, 可是,再也沒人剩下,可以站起來為我說話了。”
