Yahweh continue speaking to the people of Jerusalem.
Why do you weigh out silver for what is not bread? And labor for what does not satisfy?
Yahweh uses questions to emphasize that he is frustrated because the people are seeking things that have no value. AT: "Do not spend your money on food that is not beneficial. Do not work for things that will not satisfy you." (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion)
eat what is good, and delight your lives in fatness
This means if the people will obey Yahweh he will bless them and give them what can truly satisfy them. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor)
in fatness
"in an abundance of the best food"
