ગુજરાતીનીતિવચનો ૩૧:૩
તારી શક્તિ સ્ત્રીઓ પાછળ વેડફીશ નહિ, અને તારા માર્ગો રાજાઓનો નાશ કરનારની પાછળ વેડફીશ નહિ.
हिन्दीनीतिवचन ३१:३
अपना बल स्त्रियों को न देना, न अपना जीवन उनके वश कर देना जो राजाओं का पौरूष खा जाती हैं।

In context

1The words of King Lemuel—the revelation which his mother taught him:

2“Oh, my son! Oh, son of my womb! Oh, son of my vows!

3Don’t give your strength to women, nor your ways to that which destroys kings.

4It is not for kings, Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine, nor for princes to say, ‘Where is strong drink?’

5lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the justice due to anyone who is afflicted.
