  What it means

  “Serve God, but don’t anger the devil.” A variant of the same pragmatic wisdom: fulfil your religious duties, but don’t be reckless enough to provoke evil.

  Vocabulary

  • służyć — to serve

  Grammar note

  'Bogu służ' — imperative of 'służyć' with dative 'Bogu'. Same structure as the 'kłaniaj' variant.
