The first version is an idiomatic shortening of the second. A literal translation of the second version would be, "You must speak about your hitting yourself, regarding the reason."

Re: Why are you hitting yourself?
It needs to be more Bible-y. How about this: "And the angel said unto him, Stop hitting thyself! But he could not stop, for he was hitting him with his own hands."Lao Kou wrote:http://imgur.com/YKwBH.gif
Ah, ambiguous pronoun usage. Gotta love it.
Re: Why are you hitting yourself?
A new Vtain translation, at last!
Why are you hitting yourself?
Ham päkodäni stain?
ham p<ä>kod-än-i stain
PRON.SG2.INTR <ANTIP>hit-PASS-PRS why
INTR - The intranstitive is the case of intransitive subject in Vtain.
Reflexive is formed by adding both antipassive and passive affixes.
The intensive stem, with the strong mutation, pkod -> pkot would mean 'to beat'.

The strong grade should appear before the TAM-suffix.

INTENS - intensive stem
