The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Ambulans recto itinere, et timens Deum, despicitur ab eo qui infami graditur via.
Septuagint (Swete)
ὁ πορευόμενος ὀρθῶς φοβεῖται τὸν κύριον, ὁ δὲ σκολιάζων ταῖς ὁδοῖς αὐτοῦ ἀτιμασθήσεται.
Hebrew (WLC)
הוֹלֵ֣ךְ בְּ֭יָשְׁרוֹ יְרֵ֣א יְהוָ֑ה וּנְל֖וֹז דְּרָכָ֣יו בּוֹזֵֽהוּ

Haydock's commentary

And, is not in Hebrew.

Is. Hebrew, "but the perverse in his ways despiseth him;" (Haydock) shewing by his conduct that he cares not for the Lord. (Calmet)

Septuagint, "he shall be dishonoured, that," &c.
