315. Yàlla bindul ku mu dul rey waaye am na ñu mu dul toroxal. (20)<br />

God has not created anyone whom he does not kill, but there are those whom he<br />

does not humiliate.<br />

The elect of God will die just like everyone else, but God looks after their integrity. He<br />

will never abandon them.<br />

316. Yàlla, gémmiñ gu mu xotti sànni ca ab tib. (2)<br />

Gémmiñ gu Yàlla sàkk sànni ci pepp. (6)<br />

317. Yàlla buy séddale, ñatt, ñatti nit, dey jox ñaar kenn, jox benn kenn, ne ka ca des topp leen lu rot<br />

nga for. (15)<br />

When God divides something into three parts for three people, He gives two parts<br />

to one person, one part to the second, and allows the third to follow the other two<br />

and collect what falls from their hands.<br />

This proverb speaks of the inequality of the lot of people in the world. It is enough to note<br />

the acts of God's wisdom without judging.<br />

Jaam ak yéeneem, Yàlla ak dogalam. (6)<br />

Ku xamoon li lay yoot, nga bàyyi li ngay yoot te daw. (2,19)<br />

Ku xamoon li lay dàq, nga bàyyi li ngay dàq. (20)<br />

If you knew what was stalking you, you would abandon what you were stalking<br />

and flee.<br />

This is a warning to those who live in the world as though God does not exist and there is<br />

no coming judgement.<br />

“Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment,” (Hebrews<br />

9:27 NIV)<br />

320. Lu la Yàlla jox, waruloo ko xeeb. (20)<br />

Nit lu ko Yàlla jox waru ko xeeb.<br />

You should not despise what God deals you.<br />

321. Taal bu Yàlla taal, sànni cag matt a gën fey ko. (6,11,12,19)<br />

Taal bi Yàlla taal, sànni ci matt moo gën di ko jéem fey. (7)<br />

Taal bu Yàlla taal, sànni cag matt a gëna jéem koo fey. (2)<br />

It is better to throw wood on the fire which God lights than to try and put it out.<br />
