I found explanations on the Internet but am not sure if they are any good:

The error committed on impulse may turn out to be the sorrow of a whole life.

Old sin makes new shame. (I don't know what this is.)

Do wrong once and you will never hear the end of it.

Stumbing once leads to eternal.

One fall becomes eternal regret.

Once a devil, always a devil.

A little neglect may breed great mischief.

Short pleasure, long lament.

One false step brings everlasting grief.
