Let no wise man unsettle the mind of ignorant people who are attached to action; he should engage them in all actions, himself fulfilling them with devotion.

The wise should not unsettle the minds of the ignorant who are attached to action. Acting with discipline themselves, they should encourage others in all their work.

Krishna adds a word of caution for those who understand. They should not create buddhibheda, a split or confusion, in the minds of people who are attached to their work. Telling such people that action is worthless would only lead them to abandon it without gaining wisdom. Instead, the wise should act steadily themselves and help others find value in their work. The verse shows a gentle, practical approach to teaching: meet people where they are and lead by example rather than by unsettling them.
