    Значение существительного revenge может быть выражено близкими по содержанию словами verge, retaliation. Существительное vengence - мщение, обозначает сильное чувство мести за какую-либо серьезную обиду; существительное verge более эмоционалино, чем существительное revenge: Heamlet's heart was belled with vengence. Сердце Гамлета было полно мщения. He was driven by vengence. Им двигало чувство мести. Существительное retaliation в значении "ответный удар, возмездие" подразумевает действие, сходное по характеру тому, которое было ранее совершено кем-либо другим: in retaliation в отместку; He felt that retaliation would follow very soon. Он чувствовал, что вскоре последует ответная мера

    CHOICE OF WORDS:
    Чувство мщения, мести может быть описано кроме глагола to revenge, и существительного revenge, рядом других слов и словосочетаний, используемых как в нейтрально-литературной ситуации, так и в случаях более обыденной, разговорной речи.

To retaliate - отплатить тем же самым, нанести ответный удар: They retalieted by changing the day of the meeting. Они отомстили тем, что изменили день собрания. To pay smb back - отплатить, сделать что-либо в отместку; данное словосочетание используется в обыденных ситуациях: I'm going to play my music really loud and see how he likes being waken up in the middle of the night, just to pay him back. Я запущу музыку на полную громкость и посмотрю, как это ему понравится, когда его разбудят в середине ночи, просто для того, чтобы отомстить ему/посчитаться с ним. To get even with smb - свести с кем-либо счеты; данное сочетание описывает обыденные поступки и ситуации: Joyce hurt him really badly and he vowed to get even with her some day. Джойс его очень обидела, и он поклялся когда-нибудь свести с ней счеты. What can I do to get even with him? Что я могу сделать, чтобы свести с нею счеты?

Yoma 43b כך (היא) מ׳ הדין נותנת common sense dictates this; Shebu.14a. Y.Maas. Sh. II, 53c top תחומין עשו (כמ׳) למ׳ הדין they regulated the laws of Sabbath limits according to common sense (not by textual interpretation).c) decision in money matters, civil law (contrad. to ritual law). Y.Gitt.V, 46c bot. אף למ׳ הדין הכן the same principle holds good for civil law (collection of claims, v. כַּפְּרָנוּת); Y.Shebi.X, 39c bot. Ib. (last line) ולמידין מ׳ הדיןוכ׳ do we apply the rules of Prosbol (v. פְּרוֹזְבּוּל) to ordinary claims? Y.B. Kam.V, beg.4d לא הילכו במ׳ הדין אחר הרוב (strike out בממון) in civil law we are not guided by probabilities (v. דוֹב; cmp. Bab. ib. 27b). Y.Ber.II, 5a bot. ולמ׳ הד׳ but civil law (questions of possession). 4) principle, standard, consistency. Men.III, 4 במדתר׳וכ׳ following the principle of R. ; Pes.77b; Y. ib. VII, 34c top. Shek. IV, 6 אינח היא תמ׳ (comment. אינה מן המ׳) this is not consistent (with a previous rule). Ib. 7 השוה את מִדָּתוֹ (Y. ed. מִדּוֹתָיו) he makes his standards even (is consistent). Pes.I, 7 אינת חיא המ׳ this is not the right argument. Ib. 15b אמאי אינה היא המ׳ מ׳ ומ׳ היא why do you say, it is no argument? it is surely a correct argument. Y. Ḥag.III, 77d ‘Menahem went out means ממ׳ למ׳ יצא he went over from one principle to another (joined the opposition; Bab. ib. 16b יצא לתרבות רעה).Esp. מִדּוֹת rules of interpretation.

R. s. 3, beg. הלכות ומ׳ decisions and interpretations (by which the decisions were reached), v. מְכִילְתָּא.Gitt.67a מִידּוֹתַי תרומה מתרומות מִידּוֹתָיווכ׳ my rules of interpretation are the selection from selections of rules by R. Akiba.Ber.33b שעושח מדותיו של הקב״ח רחמיםוכ׳ he makes compassion the standard (or reason) of the divine laws, while they are decrees (the reasons for which it behooves not man to discuss); Y. ib. V, 9c כקורא תיגר על מ׳וכ׳ because it sounds as if he were finding fault with the ways of the Lord (as if the Lord were partial); כנותן קיצבח למ׳וכ׳ as though he were setting limits to the attributes of the Lord.
