ગુજરાતીનીતિવચનો ૧૦:૧૭
જે શિખામણનો સ્વીકાર કરે છે, તે જીવનના માર્ગમાં છે, પણ ઠપકાનો ત્યાગ કરનાર ભૂલ કરે છે.
हिन्दीनीतिवचन १०:१७
जो शिक्षा पर चलता वह जीवन के मार्ग पर है, परन्तु जो डाँट से मुँह मोड़ता, वह भटकता है।

In context

15The rich man’s wealth is his strong city. The destruction of the poor is their poverty.

16The labor of the righteous leads to life. The increase of the wicked leads to sin.

17He is in the way of life who heeds correction, but he who forsakes reproof leads others astray.

18He who hides hatred has lying lips. He who utters a slander is a fool.

19In the multitude of words there is no lack of disobedience, but he who restrains his lips does wisely.
