The enemy uses a question to mock the people of Israel. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express this question as a statement. Alternate translation: “Yahweh your God cannot help you”

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “her enemies will trample her down”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / simile
(Occurrence 0) like the mud in the streets
(Some words not found in UHB: and,see enemy_of,my and,cover,her shame the,said to=me where,he? YHWH God_of,your eyes_of,my look in/on/at/with,her now you(ms)_will_be for,trampled_down like,mire_of streets )
People who walk on mud without thinking they are doing anything bad are compared with those who will destroy Israel’s enemies without thinking they are doing anything evil.
7:10 where is the Lord? This taunt rebuked God and those who trusted him. God had promised always to be with his people and their leaders (Gen 46:3-4; Exod 3:12). God was dishonored by these taunts, and he would act to clear his name (cp. Ezek 20:9; 36:19-26).

⇔ and shame will cover the one who said to me,
⇔ “Where is Yahweh your God?”
⇔ My eyes will look at her;
⇔ she’ll be trampled down like the mud in the streets.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
