Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof

Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof

Sufficient is the burden of trouble at its arrival; there is no need to begin worrying or fearing already before it comes. By analogy: there is nothing to debate about a problem before it is clear if and when it will arrive.

"The Holy One, blessed be He, said to Moses: Go and tell them in Israel: I was with you in this exile and I will be with you in the exile of kingdoms. He replied before Him: Master of the Universe! Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof" - Berakhot 9b, and likewise: "One of them said, my masters, sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof; it is better that we speak in joyous matters" - Agnon / Yesterday, Today, and the Day Before, 374

Definition (Hebrew)

דַּי בַּנֵּטֶל הַצָּרָה בָּעֵת שֶׁהִיא תַּגִּיעַ וְאֵין מָה לְהַתְחִיל וְלִדְאֹג כְּבָר עַכְשָׁו בְּטֶרֶם הַגָּעָתָהּ. בְּהַשְׁאָלָה: אֵין מָה לָדוּן בַּבְּעָיָה טֶרֶם בָּרוּר אִם וּמָתַי הִיא תַּגִּיעָהּ.

("אָמַר לוֹ הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא לְמֹשֶׁה: לֵךְ אֱמֹר לָהֶם לְיִשְׂרָאֵל: אֲנִי הָיִיתִי עִמָּכֶם בְּשִׁעְבּוּד זֶה וַאֲנִי אֶהְיֶה עִמָּכֶם בְּשִׁעְבּוּד מַלְכֻיוֹת. אָמַר לְפָנָיו: רִבּוֹנוֹ שֶׁל עוֹלָם! דָּיֶה לְצָרָה בִּשְׁעָתָהּ"- בְּרָכוֹת ט ע"ב, וְכֵן:"אָמַר אֶחָד מֵהֶם,רַבּוֹתַי דָּיֶה לְצָרָה בִּשְׁעָתָהּ, מוּטָב שֶׁנְּדַבֵּר בִּדְבָרִים שְׂמֵחִים"- עַגְנוֹן/ תְּמוֹל שִׁלְשׁוֹם, 374)
