Our reading
An editorial interpretation.
The speaker announces an affinity for the Old Testament and follows it with a parting pun. Your way becomes Yahweh, turning the choice of a route into a declaration of religious allegiance. The joke lets the speaker separate from someone while naming the authority they prefer.
