5 serve the devil for God's sake
"служить дьяволу, прикрываясь именем Бога", т. е. дурно поступать, прикрываясь добрыми намерениямиDo you suppose I would betray my mistress, because I see cause to doubt of her religion? - that would be a serving, as they say, the devil for God's sake. (W. Scott, ‘The Abbot’, ch. XXIV) — Неужели они считают меня способным на измену королеве только потому, что я с полным основанием усомнился в ее вере? Ведь это значило бы служить дьяволу, как говорится, из любви к Богу.
