ગુજરાતીનીતિવચનો ૨૨:૩
ડાહ્યો માણસ આફતને આવતી જોઈને સંતાઈ જાય છે, પણ મૂર્ખ માણસ આગળ ચાલ્યો જાય છે અને દંડાય છે.
हिन्दीनीतिवचन २२:३
चतुर मनुष्य विपत्ति को आते देखकर छिप जाता है; परन्तु भोले लोग आगे बढ़कर दण्ड भोगते हैं।

In context

1A good name is more desirable than great riches, and loving favor is better than silver and gold.

2The rich and the poor have this in common: The LORD is the maker of them all.

3A prudent man sees danger and hides himself; but the simple pass on, and suffer for it.

4The result of humility and the fear of the LORD is wealth, honor, and life.

5Thorns and snares are in the path of the wicked; whoever guards his soul stays far from them.
