"Reap the whirlwind" = gặt gió lốc -> nghĩa là hứng chịu hậu quả từ những hành vi của bản thân; gieo gió gặt bão đó các bạn.

Ví dụ

Sir Arthur 'Bomber' Harris statue is latest target of activists. English Heritage liaising (giữ liên lạc) with Met Police over statue of RAF commander who promised that Nazi Germany would 'reap the whirlwind'

As a result, episodes of police brutality (tàn bạo) and burning of cities should come as no surprise; when you sow the wind, you reap the whirlwind. As C.S. Lewis wrote, “We make men without chests and expect from them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors (phản bội) in our midst.”
