*Adage* - A kò gbọdọ̀ kúnlẹ̀ pa òkété, kúnlẹ̀ ta òkété, kí a tún wá kúnlẹ̀ gba owó òkété.

*Translation* - One shouldn't have to grovel to kill pouch rat, suffer servile to sell it, and still have to genuflect to be paid for it.

*Moral/wisdom* Service shouldn't be in servitude; be fair: deny no one his/her due. God hears the cry of the afflicted says the Holy Bible.

*ADAGE* À ńpòyì ká apá, apá ò ká apá; à ńpòyì ká oṣè, apá ò ká oṣè; bẹẹni à ńpòyì ká kànga, ṣùgbọ́n kò ṣé bínú kó sí.
*TRANSLATION* We circle round the mahogany bean tree, but it's a great deal to handle; we make circles around the baobab tree, but can't be harmed; we still circle round the well, but not bold enough to jump into it in anger.
*WISDOM* If God has made you a formidable being, fear less, yet be careful, while you still hold on to the God, who saves.

*ADAGE* - Àì-lápá làdá ò mú; bí a bá lápá, ọmọ owú to-o gégi.

*TRANSLATION* - Feeble hand makes a cutlass seem blunt; with the presence of strong biceps, one can even cut trees with a cudgel.

*WISDOM* - One should not blame one's inefficiency on others. Always strive to be the better version of yourself.
