Yahweh is speaking.
# they wail on their beds
It was usual for idol worshipers to eat ceremonial meals while reclining on couches or beds.
# They gather together
Some modern translations read, "they slash themselves" to make themselves bleed.
# they turn away from me
Here no longer worshiping God is spoken of as turning away from him. Alternate translation: "they no longer worship me" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
