# Is this house, which carries my name, a den of bandits in your eyes?
This question expects a positive answer to make the point that God knows what they think about Yahweh's temple. This can be translated as a statement. AT: "This house, which carries my name, is a den of bandits in your eyes!" or "You act as though you think this house, which is called by my name, should be a place where bandits can go to hide!" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]])
# this house, which carries my name
Yahweh's temple is spoken of as if it was carrying the name of Yahweh. This has a similar meaning to "this house that is called by my name" in the previous verse. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom]])
# bandits
"robbers." This word refers to violent men who steal and destroy.
# But behold, I have seen it
"But I certainly have seen what you are doing"
# this is Yahweh's declaration
