馬丁．尼莫拉（Martin Niemoller 1892-1984），是二次大戰前德國的宗教領袖，因為對希特勒的猶太政策和對德國教會的控制，後來被希特勒親自下令送進集中營。

二次世界大戰以後，德國牧師馬丁．尼莫拉（Martin Niemoller 1892-1984）為了讓世人記住納粹屠殺猶太人這一血腥恥辱，在波士頓樹起了一塊紀念碑，碑上銘刻這樣一段話：

起初他們（德國納粹黨）追殺共產主義者，
因為我不是共產主義者，我不說話；

接著他們追殺猶太人，
因為我不是猶太人，我不說話；

後來他們追殺工會成員，
因為我不是工會成員，我繼續不說話；

此後他們追殺天主教徒，
因為我不是天主教徒，我還是不說話；

最後，他們奔向我來，
再也沒有人站起來為我說話了。

They came first for the Communists,
             and I didn't speak up, because I wasn't a Communist.
Then they came for the Jews,
             and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew.
Then they came for the trade unionists,
             and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Catholics,
             and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant.
Then they came for me,
             and by that time no one was left to speak up.

當納粹黨來抓共產黨的時候，我沒有站出來為他們說話，因為我不是共產黨；
當納粹黨來抓猶太人的時候，我沒有站出來為他們說話，因為我不是猶太人；
當納粹黨來抓工會的人的時候，我沒有站出來為他們說話，因為我不是工會的人；
當納粹黨來抓天主教徒的時候，我沒有站出來為他們說話，因為我是基督徒，不是天主教徒；
當納粹黨來抓我的時候，已經沒有人站出來為我說話，因為他們都被抓走了。


When the Nazis came for the communists,
I did not speak out
because I was not a communist.

When they came for the social democrats,
I did not speak out
because I was not a social democrat.

When they came for the trade unionists,
I did not speak out
because I was not a trade unionist.

When they came for the Jews,
I did not speak out
because I was not a Jew;

When they came for me,
there was no one left to speak out.
