Explanation
This is the proverb as you make your bed, so you must lie on it, which uses the correlative as with so. So you must lie on it completes the proverbial warning that one must accept the consequences of one's actions. You must learn to lie changes the meaning, adjust with the situation is unidiomatic, and so that you can lie on it turns it into a purpose clause. The proverbial as-so correlative confirms the answer.
