slipping, unsteady (foot); unstable, tottering
A passive participle in Proverbs 25:19, describing 'a slipping foot'—a metaphor for an unreliable person. The proverb says trusting the faithless in trouble is like relying on a bad tooth or a slipping foot: painful and useless. The image captures instability and the danger of depending on something that won't hold. Some read the form as an active participle (wobbling), but the sense is the same: unreliability.
Sentidos
1. sense 1 — Proverbs 25:19 piles up images of failed support: rotten tooth, slipping foot, faithless person. The 'slipping foot' (Spanish 'que resbala') can't bear weight; it gives way at the critical moment. The domain (Non-Linear Movement) captures the instability—not moving forward reliably, but wavering, sliding. This is wisdom literature using physical unreliability to picture moral untrustworthiness. 1×
