OET (OET-RV) When you ate and drank together, weren’t you yourselves just enjoying the food and drink?
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / yousingular
וְכִ֥י תֹאכְל֖וּ וְכִ֣י תִשְׁתּ֑וּ
and=because/when you(pl)_must_eat and=because/when drink
The word you is plural here because Yahweh is continuing to address all the people of the land and the priests, so use the plural form in your translation if your language marks that distinction.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
הֲל֤וֹא אַתֶּם֙ הָאֹ֣כְלִ֔ים וְאַתֶּ֖ם הַשֹּׁתִֽים
am=not you(pl) the=ones_eating and_[are],you(pl)? the_[ones,who]_drink
Yahweh is using the question form to emphasize that the people were eating and drinking for their own benefit. If a speaker of your language would not use the question form for that purpose, you could translate this as a statement or as an exclamation. Alternate translation: [you ate and drank only for yourselves.]

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.
