ગુજરાતીનીતિવચનો ૧૧:૨૬
અનાજ સંઘરી રાખનારને લોકો શાપ આપે છે, પણ વેચનાર ઉપર તેઓ આશીર્વાદ વરસાવે છે.
हिन्दीनीतिवचन ११:२६
जो अपना अनाज जमाखोरी करता है, उसको लोग श्राप देते हैं, परन्तु जो उसे बेच देता है, उसको आशीर्वाद दिया जाता है।

In context

24There is one who scatters, and increases yet more. There is one who withholds more than is appropriate, but gains poverty.

25The liberal soul shall be made fat. He who waters shall be watered also himself.

26People curse someone who withholds grain, but blessing will be on the head of him who sells it.

27He who diligently seeks good seeks favor, but he who searches after evil, it shall come to him.

28He who trusts in his riches will fall, but the righteous shall flourish as the green leaf.
