ለሹመት ካልመከሩለት ለጥርስ ካልነከሩለት

Meaning

This proverb highlights the necessity of support and guidance for individuals, especially in achieving significant goals or handling responsibilities. It suggests that just as one needs to be advised or supported to get an important position, and food needs to be prepared (or 'dipped for their teeth' like for a child) for them to eat, some people require considerable external assistance to succeed or function effectively. It speaks to dependence or the need for a strong support system.
