Hianao No Soa Tia Ratsy, Ka Ny Zanak'olona No Tendren-Kanana Ody.

This proverb highlights the hypocrisy of those who love doing evil, but try to divert attention from their own behavior by falsely accusing others. It criticizes people who are insincere and project their own faults and wrongdoings onto others. An equivalent proverb in English might be “The best defense is a good offense,” although the context is slightly different.
