Exegesis
The adversative sense of the second vav introduces wə’ōhel {וְאֹ֖הֶל | wə’ōhel} ‘and tent’, mirroring the possessive relationship with yesharim {יְשָׁרִים | yəšārîm} ‘upright’, and the Hiphil verb yaphriach {יַפְרִֽיחַ | yaphrīaḥ} conveys active flourishing. The contrast of construct versus absolute states and the shift from passive to causative voice underscores the moral reversal: the stronghold of the wicked collapses, while the humble dwelling of the upright prospers.
Root and etymology
