Exegesis
The construct chain mipnei cherev {מִפְּנֵ֕י חֶרֶב | mip·p̄ə·nê ḥe·rêḇ} ‘because of the sword’ expresses causation, and malakh YHWH {מַלְאַךְ יְהוָה | mal·ʾāḵ yə·hō·wāh} ‘angel of the LORD’ identifies the divine messenger of judgment. This word order heightens the immediacy of threat.
In context — 1 Chronicles 21:30
But David was not able to go before it to inquire of God , because he was terrified by the sword of the angel of the LORD .
