બેઠક Bethak

જણે તે જોગવે, ને પડે તે ભોગવે.

jaṇē tē jōgavē, nē paḍē tē bhōgavē.

Literally
She who gives birth provides, and he who falls suffers.
What it means
The person who initiates or creates something must take care of it, and the one who gets into trouble must bear the consequences.

Also said as

  • જતી લાડી માંડવા વધાવે.
ગુજરાતી કહેવતસંગ્રહ (Gujarati Kahevat Sangrah) (1923) · 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.
