    бог-то бог, да <и> сам не будь плох
    погов.
    God is God but don't be a clod!; cf. God (the Lord, Heaven) helps those (them) who help themselves

    - Да, - сочувственно и даже с болью отозвался на это печальное описание Полотенцев. - Подумаешь, прикинешь, в какую вы беду себя вовлекли, Меркурий Авдеевич, расселив на своём владении подозрительных лиц. Но вот вы говорите - бог им судья. Бог-то бог, да и сам не будь плох. Мы ведь призваны судить на земле. На небеси осудят без нас. (К. Федин, Первые радости) — 'Yes,' was Polotentsev's response, made with sympathy and even pained fellow feeling, to this sad story. 'Just think, Merkuri Avdeyevich, just consider what misfortunes you have brought on yourself by letting your rooms to suspicious persons. You say - let God be their judge; God helps only those who help themselves. We are appointed to judge people here below. In heaven judgement will be meted out to them without us.'

    - Я вам расскажу, мужики, сказку-побасенку... "Вороне где-то бог прислал кусочек сыру..." Мужики засмеялись, зашумели, а Егор продолжал: - Бог, как говорится, бог, да сам не будь плох! Так и тут. Ворона из-за того куска погибнуть могла. (Н. Вирта, Одиночество) — 'Men, I'll tell you a little story, a fable... 'God sent the crow a piece of cheese...' The men began to talk and laugh, but Yegor continued: 'God is God but don't be a clod! Same thing here. That piece of cheese might well have been the crow's undoing.'
