(Occurrence 0) How can you ask me, ‘What is bothering you?’
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said DOM gods,my which/who made took and=DOM the=priest/officer and,went_away and,what to/for=me again/more and,how this say to=me what? with,you )
Micah asks this question to emphasize that the Danites definitely know what is bothering him. Alternate translation: “You know that I am greatly distressed!’” or “You know how much I am bothered by what you have done to me!’”
18:24 Micah’s last speech is pathetic and pitiful. He began by stealing from his own mother and ended by losing it all to worse thieves than himself. The narrative drips with irony, including Micah’s loss of the gods I have made. His fate was that of all who forsake the Lord’s covenant: I have nothing left!
