八版圣典节译：巫师之憎

Aboard the Eternal Crusader, the Battle Barge t at serves as High Marshal Helbrecht's flagship and mobile fortress monastery of the Chapter, lies the Hall of Records, a vast archive where a legion of scribes and servitors toil to record the history and deeds of the Black Templars' far-flung forces. Such duties of record keeping would normally fall to a Chapter's Librarians, but the Black Templars Chapter boasts not single psychic Space Marine amongst its ranks. 

在大元帅赫尔布莱切特的旗舰以及战团的移动要塞修道院——“永恒远征军”号战列母舰上，陈列着一座记录大厅，大群的抄写员和机仆在这间巨大的档案馆中努力记录着黑色圣堂战团那些分布广泛的部队的历史和事迹。此类进行记录的职责正常来说都是由战团的智库们承担，但黑色圣堂就是以自己的部队中不存在灵能星际战士为荣的战团。

It is uncertain how, or when, the Black Templars ceased to field Librarians, for with their disappearance, much of the Chapter's history was also lost. Outsiders suggest that as the Chapter came to worship the Emperor as a god, they took his decree at the Edict of Nikaea to disband their Librarius divisions as holy law. Others whisper that the Black Templars' gehe-seed has somehow deteriorated, or that their Librarians were slain during a great war in the Chapter's history. Some scholars point to the Black Templars' final battle to end the Catelexis Heresy of M34, and the apocalyptic psychic death-screams that tore through the warp after the slaying of the Cacodominus, as another possible explanation. Whatever the truth, the Black Templars have come to accept the loss of their Librarians as part of the Emperor's divine plan. If the Emperor decides to once again bless the Black Templars with Librarians, they will embrace it, but until that day, they will wage battle without these powerful warriors at their side. 

我们无法确定黑色圣堂战团是在什么时候以何种方式停止使用智库，因为随着他们的消失，战团也遗失了自己的大部分历史。外人声称：由于黑色圣堂战团开始将帝皇视为神明进行祷告，所以他们也将帝皇在尼凯亚敕令中解散智库部门的旨意视为一条神圣的律法。其他人则在闲言碎语中说黑色圣堂的基因种子产生了某些方面的恶化，或者称他们的智库死在了战团历史上某次伟大战役中。某些学者也提出了另一种解释：在黑色圣堂战团于M34平定Catelexis叛乱的最后战斗中，异形君主“恶灵之王”在被杀死后发出了一阵撕裂亚空间的启示录般灵能死亡嚎叫，这阵灵能冲击是黑色圣堂智库消失的原因。但无论真相如何，黑色圣堂都已经开始将他们智库的缺失接受为帝皇神圣计划的一部分。如果帝皇决定再次将智库赐予黑色圣堂，他们就会拥抱这份恩赐，但在那之前，他们将会在身边没有这些强大战士的情况下进行战争。

Outsiders mistakenly interpret the lack of Librarians within the ranks of the Black Templars Chapter, and the fury with which its battle-brothers slay Chaos Sorcerers, as an intolerance of all psykers. This is not the case; though the Black Templars do not traditionally number psykers amongst their ranks, they hold special reverence for Astropaths, seeing them as holy disciples who have actually communed with the Emperor. Navigators are similarly honoured, for their psychic blessing allows them to see the divine light of the Astronomican and guide the Black Templars through the warp to deliver righteous retribution against the Emperor's enemies. 

外人错误地将黑色圣堂部队中智库的缺乏和战团中战斗修士们屠戮混沌巫师的狂怒解读为他们毫不容忍一切灵能者。但事实并非如此：虽然黑色圣堂在传统上并不在他们的队伍里部署灵能者，但他们对星语者有着特殊的尊敬，将之视为与帝皇有过交流的神圣门徒。导航者也受到类似的尊崇，因为导航者们的灵能赐福允许他们看到星炬的神圣光芒，并引导黑色圣堂战团穿过亚空间，对帝皇之敌降下正义的天谴。
