  • 4 pay off a score

    сводить (старые) счёты, отплатить за (старые) обиды, расквитаться

    Great was their amazement, great was their relief, when they found out that their dreaded master breathed nothing but kindness, gentleness and conciliation. The old scores, they found, were not to be paid off, but to be wiped out. (L. Strachey, ‘eminent Victorians’, ‘Cardinal Manning’, ch. VI) — Как противники Мэйнинга были удивлены, какое испытали чувство облегчения, обнаружив, что их владыка, которого они так боялись, стал воплощением доброты, мягкости и дружелюбия. Можно было сбросить со счетов старые обиды, забыть о них.

    In the old West they paid off a score with bullets. (RHD) — В былые времена на Западе с врагом сводили счеты меткой пулей.
