Chapter 4 / Mishnah 19 - Pirkei Avot translated into english

Description / commentaries - Pirkei Avot - Mishnah 19 - Chapter 4
Shmuel Hakatan says: "When your foe falls do not rejoice, and when he stumbles, let your heart not be merry" [This is a verse in Proverbs (24:17), but Shmuel Hakatan was wont to reprove men with it], (18): "Lest the L rd see, and it be evil in His eyes [that in your heart you have made Him like your messenger to satisfy your lust] and He turn His wrath from him." [Since it is not written "veshav" (and He shall repent Himself") but "veheshiv" ("and He shall turn"), the implication is that He will turn it from your foe unto you.]
