Maybe agu/faru [bone/gxuste/la bonon]?

Just throwing more ideas out there hoping one of them's what you're looking for

I personally like "faru la bonon".

tommjames:The only reason I ask is forms like agu juste could be read as a general manner of behavior, whereas "the right thing" seems to suggest a single act. It would be nice if I could conserve this nuance.

Then "elektu saĝe" comes to my mind, if it's about a single specific decision.

Another suggestion: faru la justan. (The substantive object is intended to be implicit).

If you want to conserve this nuance, then perhaps:
Trovu la ĝustan (or any other adjective) vojon.
aŭ
faru la ĝustan decidon.
