[example 1]
A snake that looks for a hammer. [proverb] This is said of a thief that is finally caught. Someone who does a bad thing, for example steals, often blames the bad deed on someone else. Hence he is a snake. But, in so doing, since he himself is involved, he is, in effect, sealing his own fate, because he will eventually be caught in the deception.
[[Word example text id::Seekor ular yang mencari palu. [pepatah]

Ini dikatakan tentang seorang pencuri yang akhirnya ditangkap. Seseorang yang melakukan hal buruk, misalnya mencuri, sering menyalahkan perbuatan buruk pada orang lain. Karenanya dia adalah ular. Tetapi, dengan melakukan hal itu, karena dia sendiri terlibat, dia, pada dasarnya, menyegel nasibnya sendiri, karena dia akhirnya akan terperangkap dalam penipuan.| ]][[Word example text en::A snake that looks for a hammer.
