Whoso causeth the righteous to go astray in an evil way, he shall fall himself into his own pit: but the upright shall have good things in possession.

Verse 10 is found in chapter 28 of Proverbs. The wicked flee when no one pursues them, while the righteous remain confident. National corruption increases when many participate in evil, but an understanding ruler seeks stability through justice. Confessing and abandoning sins is contrasted with concealing them. The conclusion warns that whoever leads the upright into an evil way will eventually fall into his own trap.

Wer die Frommen verführt auf bösem Wege, der wird in seine Grube fallen; aber die Frommen werden Gutes ererben.
El que hace errar a los rectos por el mal camino, él caerá en su misma sima: Mas los perfectos heredarán el bien.
Quien desvía a los rectos hacia un mal camino caerá en su propia fosa, pero los íntegros heredarán el bien.
Celui qui égare les hommes droits dans la mauvaise voie Tombe dans la fosse qu'il a creusée; Mais les hommes intègres héritent le bonheur.
Chi travia gli uomini diritti per via cattiva. Caderà egli stesso nella sua fossa; Ma gli uomini intieri erederanno il bene
O que faz com que os retos errem por mau caminho, ele mesmo cairá na sua cova; mas os bons herdarão o bem.
誘惑正直人行惡道的,必掉在自己的坑裏; 惟有完全人必承受福分。
