Exegesis
The lament idiom ū-mah-lî-ʿōḏ {וּמַה־לִּ֣י עוֹד | ū-mah-lî ʿōḏ} ‘what do I have left’ conveys utter destitution, while the paired interrogatives mah-zē tōʾmrū ʾēlāy mah-lāḵ {מַה־זֶּה תֹּאמְרוּ אֵלַי מַה־לָּךְ} heighten indignation through rhetorical parallelism.
In context — Judges 18:24
He said, “You carried off the gods I made, and also the priest , and you left. What is left for me? How can you say to me, ‘What is the matter with you?’”
