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,他们追杀共产主义者,我没有说话,因为我不是共产主义者;

接着,他们追杀犹太人, 我没有说话,因为我不是犹太人;

接着,他们追杀工会成员, 我没有说话,因为我不是工会成员;

接着,他们追杀天主教徒, 我没有说话,因为我是新教徒;

接着,他们奔我而来, 可是,再也没人剩下,可以站起来为我说话了。”
