Raw Blame History

What profit is it that we have kept his requirements or walked mournfully before Yahweh of hosts?

The people ask this question among themselves in order to make a statement. Alternate translation: "It is useless that we have kept his requirements and walked mournfully before Yahweh of hosts." (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion)

walked mournfully before Yahweh of hosts

Here "walk mournfully" stands for "behave in a sorrowful manner," probably in order to indicate sorrow over their sins. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor)

before Yahweh of hosts

Here this expression refers to God being aware of what the people were doing. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor)
