you are all physicians of no value
Being a physician represents being a person who comforts others. Being of no value means that they do not know how to do what they should. Alternate translation: "you are all like physicians who do not know how to heal people" or "you all come to comfort me, but you do not know how, like unskilled physicians" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor)
