Contextual Overview
20Wisdom cries aloud in an out-place, || She gives forth her voice in broad places, 21She calls at the head of the multitudes, || In the openings of the gates, || In the city she says her sayings: 22"Until when, you simple, do you love simplicity? And have scorners desired their scorning? And do fools hate knowledge? 23Turn back at my reproof, behold, || I pour forth my spirit to you, || I make known my words with you. 24Because I have called, and you refuse, || I stretched out my hand, and none is attending, 25And you slight all my counsel, || And you have not desired my reproof. 26I also laugh in your calamity, || I deride when your fear comes, 27When your fear comes as destruction, || And your calamity comes as a windstorm, || When adversity and distress come on you. 28Then they call me, and I do not answer, || They seek me earnestly, and do not find me. 29Because that they have hated knowledge, || And have not chosen the fear of YHWH.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
They would none of my counsel,.... Neither his doctrines nor his ordinances; nor would they attend to the wholesome counsel and advice he gave them in his sermons upon the mount, and in other discourses of his at other times and places;
they despised all my reproof; for their hypocrisy, uncleanness, covetousness, and other sins they were addicted to; see Matthew 23:1; but they "derided" him for it, Luke 16:14; where the same word is used as is by the Septuagint here. These things are repeated from Proverbs 1:25, to observe their ingratitude, and how just was their ruin, and what the true cause of it.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
This is no arbitrary sentence. The fault was all along their own. The fruit of their own ways is death.
