The Greek that is translated as “put your sword back into its place” or similar in English is translated in Mandarin Chinese in the form of a Chinese proverb: shōudāo rùqiào (收刀入鞘) or “put the knife away, sheath it.” This is now a widely-used Chinese phrase, including being used as a title for a novel and movie.
