Contextual Overview
1 My son, if you listen closely to my wisdom and good sense, 2 you will have sound judgment, and you will always know the right thing to say. 3 The words of an immoral woman may be as sweet as honey and as smooth as olive oil. 4 But all that you really get from being with her is bitter poison and pain. 5 If you follow her, she will lead you down to the world of the dead. 6 She has missed the path that leads to life and doesn't even know it. 7 My son, listen to me and do everything I say. 8 Stay away from a bad woman! Don't even go near the door of her house. 9 You will lose your self-respect and end up in debt to some cruel person for the rest of your life. 10 Strangers will get your money and everything else you have worked for.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And have not obeyed the voice of my teachers,.... Parents, tutors, masters, and ministers of the word; neither regarded the advice of parents, nor the instructions of tutors, nor the commands of masters, nor the sermons of ministers: these are all lost on some persons; they are proof against them all; these make no impressions upon them, and are of no use to them;
nor inclined mine ear to them that instructed me! or to my masters, as the Targum and Vulgate Latin version; turned away the ear from them, stopped it to them, and would not hear what they had to say; at least would not receive it, and act according to it.
