“When water is about to decrease, it smells foul; when a person is about to diminish (in character/standing), he becomes arrogant.”
Meaning
Just as stagnant, low water gives off a bad smell, a person's declining character or impending downfall is often preceded by arrogance and pride. It serves as a warning against hubris and the signs of moral decay.

እንደሚቀንስ የቆመ ውሃ መጥፎ ሽታ እንደሚያወጣ፣ የሰው ልጅ ባህሪ መጥፎ ሲሆን ወይም ሊወድቅ ሲል በትዕቢትና በኩራት ይታበያል።
