Oye children. The LXX reads “[my] son.” This version does not have the remainder of this verse, nor v. 33.

In view of the blessings of wisdom it would be folly to close the ears to the call of wisdom. Compare the statement of Christ in which He turned aside an attempt to exalt His mother and affirmed that blessing or happiness comes from heeding the word of God (Luke 11:28).
