There is a way that seems right to a man

The writer speaks of a person's conduct or behavior as if it were a road on which the person is traveling. Alternate translation: "A person thinks that the way he is living is right" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy)

but its end is the way to death

The word "its" refers to "way" in the previous line. This "way" is the road that leads to death.
