ሰውን ማመን ቀብድ ተቀብሎ ነው

Meaning

This proverb advises caution and pragmatism when it comes to trusting others. It suggests that one should not fully trust a person until they have demonstrated their reliability or commitment through some tangible proof or by fulfilling an initial obligation, akin to receiving a down payment before fully committing to a deal.
