Give me a proverb and I will tell you its equivalent in a different language or culture

Proverbs 9:10

10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.

Ci nasse aseno non more mia caval.

Who's born donkey won't die a horse

Τhis reminded me of one we have here. I gifted you a donkey but you looked at its teeth. It means you were ungrateful/ didn't appreciate or tried to find faults in something good I did for you.

One for you: Όποιος δεν θέλει να ζυμώσει, δέκα μέρες κοσκινίζει.
Translation is "Whoever doesn't want to knead, will be sieving for ten days". Context is about procrastination.

Kto sa bojí, nech nejde do lesa

The one who is scared shouldn't go to the woods.

يا نحلة لا تقرصيني ولا عايز منك عسل - Bee, do not sting me, or give me honey.
Live and let live?? Idk it is the closest I could think of 🤷‍♀️

طنجرة ولقيت غطاها - A pot that found its lid
"two peas in a pod"
Birds of a feather flock together

ان غاب القط، العب يافار - While the cat is away, the mice will play.

I think I've heard this proverb said exactly in the same wording in English, but not sure 🥔🤔

النهار له عينين - The day (light) has two eyes
What's done in the dark always comes to the light

猿も木から落ちる

“Even monkeys fall from trees”

De een zijn dood is de ander zijn brood.
One person's death is the other person's bread.

What's bad for one is good for another, everyone has different wishes and needs, you can't make everyone happy, something along those lines.

How come I never heard of this proverb before LOL

A watched pot never boils

Translated into English:

A crowd is not company.

I love such informative threads. Keep adding to them or make more of the sort.
Tks.

अब आया ऊंट पहाड़ के नीचेl
Aab aaya unt pahad ke niche.
"now camel came under the mountain."

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree

Hij doet als een kip zonder kop.
He acts like a headless chicken.

Can i use my local language for say proverb?

"You can't have both the wolf fed and the sheep whole"

How about.

Long as a dogs tale in summer when the brush is high but the water is low, and the stars shine behind the darkest voids of space inspite of the broken windows in a ghost town made for no one and built in the middle of nowhere.

That dog will hunt

It's better to eat your own dick rather than begging the butcher for some meat. 🤣

Confucious say "he who loses his apartment key gets no new key"..(nookie)

😟

What about?

what's good for the goose is good for the gander.
