I've tried researching this query as well, to no avail. However, I think the most comparative modern day proverb would be: Third time's a charm, which means, roughly, that after two failures (or lack-luster performances in some situation *as referenced before Bilbo & Co.'s Third venture into Smaug's cavern in The Hobbit), fortune will be more incline to favor you on a third attempt.
IDK, could be right, could be wrong, just food for thought.
