Contextual Overview

¹⁷ I will tel thee, heare me, and I will shewe thee that I haue seene: ¹⁸ Which wyse men haue tolde, and haue not hid that which they receaued from theyr fathers: ¹⁹ Unto whom alone the earth was geue, and no straunger went among them. ²⁰ The vngodly soroweth all the dayes of his lyfe as it were a woman with childe, and the number of a tirauntes yeres is vnknowen. ²¹ A feareful sounde is [euer] in his eares, and when he is in peace, the destroyer shall come vpon him. ²² He beleueth neuer to be deliuered out of darknesse: for the sworde is alwayes before his eyes. ²³ He wandreth abrode for bread where it is, knowing that the day of darkenesse is redie at his hande. ²⁴ Trouble and anguishe wil make him afrayde, and compasse him about, as is a king in the middest of an armie. ²⁵ For he hath stretched out his hande against God, and armed him selfe against the almightie. ²⁶ He runneth proudly vpon him, & with a stiffe necke fighteth he against him.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Which wise men have told from their fathers,.... Men wise in the best sense, not to do evil, but to do good; not worldly wise men, but such who have wisdom, sound wisdom in the inward parts; who are wise to salvation, and who are partakers of divine and spiritual wisdom; and such men, as they would never tell an untruth, so they would never report a false or a foolish thing they had heard, nor any thing but upon a good testimony, what they have received from their fathers, who were also wise and good men; and therefore such a testimony, though not ocular, but by tradition, deserves regard:

and have not hid [it]; their fathers did not hide it from them, and what they have received from their fathers they did not hide it from their children; and so it came to be handed down from one to another with great truth, exactness, and certainty, and to be depended upon, see Psalms 44:1.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Which wise men have told from their fathers - Which they have received from their ancestors and communicated to others. Knowledge among the ancients was communicated chiefly by tradition from father to son. They had few or no written records, and hence, they embodied the results of their observation in brief, sententious maxims, and transmitted them from one generation to another.

And have not hid it - They have freely communicated the result of their observations to others.
