俗语：化干戈为玉帛
<p>俗语：化干戈为玉帛</p><p>刚猜了一有趣谜语，大伙儿一起分享。问：“化干戈为玉帛”—— 打一四字俗语。呵呵，谜底：“和气生财”。汉语中，“化干戈为玉帛”语出《淮南子·原道训》，常用以比喻争战者能舍弃纷争、追求和平。英语中，俗语“<span word="beat">beat</span> <span word="your">your</span> <span word="swords">swords</span> <span word="into">into</span> <span word="plowshares">plowshares</span>”可表达相同的意思。 由字面意“把刀剑打磨成犁头”，我们可看出俗语中的“<span word="sword">sword</span>”（剑）代指“战争”，而“<span word="plowshares">plowshares</span>”（犁头）则喻指“和平”。 “<span word="Beat">Beat</span> <span word="your">your</span> <span word="swords">swords</span> <span word="into">into</span> <span word="plowshares">plowshares</span>”源于《圣经·旧约·以赛亚书》第2章第4节：“<span word="And">And</span> <span word="they">they</span> <span word="shall">shall</span> <span word="beat">beat</span> <span word="their">their</span> <span word="swords">swords</span> <span word="into">into</span> <span word="plowshares">plowshares</span>, <span word="and">and</span> <span word="their">their</span> <span word="spears">spears</span> <span word="into">into</span> <span word="pruning">pruning</span> <span word="hooks">hooks</span>; <span word="nation">nation</span> <span word="shall">shall</span> <span word="not">not</span> <span word="lift">lift</span> <span word="sword">sword</span> <span word="against">against</span> <span word="nation">nation</span>, <span word="neither">neither</span> <span word="shall">shall</span> <span word="they">they</span> <span word="learn">learn</span> <span word="war">war</span> <span word="any">any</span> <span word="more">more</span>.”意思是，大家要将刀剑打成犁头，把长矛制成镰刀，各国从此和平相处，不再打仗。 呵呵，照此典故推理，如果哪天布什愿意“<span word="beat">beat</span> <span word="their">their</span> <span word="swords">swords</span> <span word="into">into</span> <span word="plowshares">plowshares</span>”（化干戈为玉帛），说不定用来轰炸伊拉克的战斗机也能有更好的用武之地，被改制成民航客机造福为民呢。 看下面的例句：<span word="The">The</span> <span word="prime">prime</span> <span word="minister">minister</span> <span word="would">would</span> <span word="like">like</span> <span word="them">them</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="beat">beat</span> <span word="their">their</span> <span word="swords">swords</span> <span word="into">into</span> <span word="plowshares">plowshares</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="abandon">abandon</span> <span word="all">all</span> <span word="plans">plans</span> <span word="for">for</span> <span word="war">war</span>.（该国首相希望双方能够化干戈为玉帛，放弃所有的战争计划。）</p>
