Exegesis
Ayeh {אַיֵּה | ʾay-yēh} poses “where?”, heightening the challenge, and the relative clause asher takhtem {אֲשֶׁר טַחְתֶּם | ʾă-šer taḥ-tem} attributes failure to the addressees’ action. The sequence underscores sudden destruction before shifting to accountability, and Hebrew interrogative forms are rendered with English questions to preserve rhetorical force.
In context — Ezekiel 13:12
And behold, the wall has fallen. Will it not be said to you, “Where is the plaster which you plastered?”
