There is always a saying that the wrath of someone mischief act were borne by someone else. It may result in positive consequences or negative. There are multiple repercussions. "The righteous person bears the deed of mischief" suggests that a person of integrity and moral uprightness may face the consequences of wrongdoing, even if they are not the perpetrator. In this context sanskrit says :
खलं करोति दुर्वृत्तं नूनं फलति साधुषु,
दशाननोSहरत्सीतां बन्धनं च महोदधैः
Khalam karoti durvrittam noonam phalati saadhushu,
Dashaanano-harat-Seetaam bandhanam cha mahodadhaih.
Khalam = a mean and crooked person.
Karoti = does.
Noonam = surely, definitely.
Durbritta = a wrong unethical action. Phalati = bearing the brunt of, results in.
Saadhushu = righteous and noble persons.
Dashaanan = ten headed. (a reference to Ravana, the King of Lanka,who was said to be having ten heads and twenty arms)
Bandhanam = bondage. (here reference is to the bridging of the Ocean by Lord Ram)
Mahodadham = ocean.
Maha = big.
Udadhi = Sea
"A mean and crooked person indulges in wrong doings but the brunt of it is always borne by righteous and noble persons e,g, Dashaanan abducted Sita , resulting in a bridge being built accross the Ocean."
Citing the reference from the epic Ramayana about the abduction of Sita (the consort of Lord Ram) by Ravana, the king of Lanka. It was mischief act and, when Lord Ram mounted an attack over Lanka to rescue Sita, the sea between the mainland and Lanka had to be bridged by Lord Ram with the help of his army.
