Proverbs 25:26

Like a muddied fountain and a polluted spring Is a righteous man who yields and compromises his integrity before the wicked. [Amplified Bible]

A righteous man who falters before the wicked Is like a murky spring and a polluted well. [New King James Version]

When a good person gives in to the wicked, it's like dumping garbage in a stream of clear water. [Contemporary English Version]

Like a muddied spring and a corrupted well Is a righteous man shaking before the wicked. [Legacy Standard Bible]
