you whitewash the truth with lies
Putting whitewash or plaster on the truth represents ignoring the truth. Alternate translation: "you hide the truth with lies" or "you lie and ignore the truth" (See: rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor)
you are all worthless healers
The word "healers" is a metaphor for people who comfort others. Healers who are "worthless" call themselves healers but do not actually heal people. Alternate translation: "you are all like physicians who do not know how to heal people" or "you all come to comfort me, but you do not know how, like unskilled physicians" (See: rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor)
