英语谚语以牙还牙

1.以牙还牙英语怎么说

an eye for an eye 以眼还眼，以牙还牙。

这可以短语还可以说成：an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth。表示“以其人之道还治其人之身”。an eye for an eye最早出自“汉谟拉比法典”。

在《圣经》中摩西受上帝之命，成为在埃及做奴隶的以色列人的领袖。他发布法令：

The punishment is to be a life for a life, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, a hand for a hand and a foot for a foot.要以命偿命，以眼还眼，以牙还牙，以手还手，以脚还脚。"

There's also a similar saying: “Don't bring a knife to a gunfight.”还有个类似的说法：“不要拿着刀子去打枪战。”

以及：You're willing to give as good as you get. 字面上是：你得到多好，就愿意给予多好。但这里作另一层意思理解，你被伤害多少，就还回去多少。

2.“以牙还牙,以眼还眼”用英语怎么翻译

以牙还牙，以眼还眼的英文翻译为：An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth .

以牙还牙，以眼还眼意思是：用瞪眼回击瞪眼，用牙齿咬人对付牙齿咬人。指对方使用什么手段攻击，就用什么手段进行回击。

这句话出自于古巴比伦《汉谟拉比法典》里的一条：如果一个人挖了另一个人的眼睛，这个人也应该被挖眼。这就是“以眼还眼、以牙还牙”的来源，在法典中将其定为惩罚方式。后被犹太教《旧约圣经》引用。

扩展资料

《圣经》记载摩西受上帝之命，为在埃及做奴隶的以色列人领袖，他发布了法令：The punishment is to be a life for a life, an eye for an eye, a tooth for an tooth, a hand for a hand and a foot for a foot.意思是：要以命偿命，以眼还眼，以牙还牙，以手还手，以脚还脚。

汉谟拉比法典规定的是报复正义，而犹太教圣经和圣经旧约则更可能做等价补偿的解释，等价补偿的“以眼还眼”更符合以罪量刑的惩罚正义观念。

按这种解释，以眼还眼不是指必须报复，别人弄瞎你一只眼，你也必须弄瞎他一只眼；而是指只能作出与伤害程度相等的，而不是过度的报复。
