ગુજરાતીનીતિવચનો ૨૫:૧૦
રખેને તે સાંભળનાર તારી નિંદા કરે અને તારા પરનો બટ્ટો દૂર થાય નહિ.
हिन्दीनीतिवचन २५:१०
ऐसा न हो कि सुननेवाला तेरी भी निन्दा करे, और तेरी निन्दा बनी रहे।

In context

8Don’t be hasty in bringing charges to court. What will you do in the end when your neighbor shames you?

9Debate your case with your neighbor, and don’t betray the confidence of another,

10lest one who hears it put you to shame, and your bad reputation never depart.

11A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver.

12As an earring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold, so is a wise reprover to an obedient ear.
