Need help deciphering Arabic script on a 100-year-old Jambiya blade

Hi everyone,I recently acquired a 100-year-old Jambiya, and there is some Arabic script engraved on the blade.Unfortunately, I cannot read old Arabic script or calligraphy, so I would really appreciate it if anyone here could help me decipher or translate what it says.Thank you so much for your help!(訳:みなさんこんにちは。最近、100年前のジャンビーヤを手に入れました。ブレードにアラビア文字が刻まれています。残念ながら私は古いアラビア文字やカリグラフィーが読めないため、ここにいるどなたか解読や翻訳を手伝っていただけると本当に助かります。助けていただきありがとうございます!)

This what’s written in Arabic:
العز في الطاعة
و الغنا في القناعة
Meaning close to this:
Glory lies in obedience, and true wealth lies in contentment.
