Someone was feeding a goat and a donkey. The goat, envious of the donkey, because he was very well fed, told him to slow down his work. from now to grinding, now to carrying bales and she advised him to pretend that he was feeling bad and fall into a hole to rest.
The donkey trusted the goat, fell and began to struggle.
The owner called the doctor and asked him to help the animal. He told her to infuse it with a goat's lung and then the donkey would be fine. And having sacrificed the goat, they saved the donkey.
Thus, whoever works evil against others becomes the author of his own evils.
