ስራ ያጣ ቄስ ቆቡን ቀዶ ይሰፋል

✦

“A priest who has no work tears his cowl and sews it.”

Meaning

This proverb illustrates that an idle person will create tasks for themselves, even if those tasks are unnecessary, unproductive, or even counterproductive (like damaging one's own property just to repair it). It highlights the human need for engagement and the potential for pointless activity born of boredom.

ትርጉም

ይህ ብሂል ምንም ስራ የሌለው ሰው ከስራ ፈትነት ለመላቀቅ ሲል ራሱን ሥራ እንደሚፈጥር ያሳያል። ምንም እንኳ ያ ሥራ አስፈላጊ ባይሆንም ወይም አዲስ ችግር የሚፈጥር ቢሆንም እንኳ፣ ስራ ፈት ከመሆን ይልቅ የሆነ ነገር ማድረጉን ያሳያል።
