Verse 12 is found in chapter 14 of Proverbs. The text again contrasts the house of the wicked with the tent of the upright and shows that outward laughter does not always reveal inner condition. The fool despises his neighbor and the poor may be rejected, while the righteous regard such relationships with mercy. The section reminds us that social appearances do not determine a person’s moral worth before God.

Telle voie paraît droite à un homme, Mais son issue, c'est la voie de la mort.
Vi è tal via che pare diritta all’uomo, Il fine della quale son le vie della morte
Há um caminho que ao homem parece direito, mas o fim dele são os caminhos da morte.
有一條路,人以為正, 至終成為死亡之路。
