બેઠક Bethak

ભલા ભલા થઈ ગયા ને થશે. ભુંડા ખુરાઈ કરે તે અજબ નહી, પણ ભલે ખુરાઈ કરે તે અજબ.

bhalā bhalā thaī gayā nē thaśē. bhuṁḍā khurāī karē tē ajaba nahī, paṇa bhalē khurāī karē tē ajaba.

Literally
Good people have been and will be. It is no surprise if the wicked do evil, but it is a surprise if the good do evil.
What it means
It is used to express shock when a virtuous person acts uncharacteristically.
કહેવત સમુદાય (Kahevat Samuday) · read from the scan by machine — the Gujarati itself is unchecked · English is machine-made and nobody has checked it yet

Heard it differently, or know we've got the sense wrong? Tell us — that is exactly the kind of correction this needs.
