Exegesis
The idiom mah-li {מַה־לִּ֥י | mah-lî} + od {ע֖וֹד | ʿôḏ} + laatzabbim {לָעֲצַבִּ֑ים | lā·ʿă·ṣab·bîm} forms a renunciation formula (“What is there for me anymore with idols?”), marking decisive separation from idolatry.
In context — Hosea 14:8
Ephraim: What remains for me with idols ? I have answered him and will look upon him; I am like a green cypress. From Me your fruit is found.
