Exegesis
The causal clause ki charon af–YHWH ’aleikhem {כִּי חֲרוֹן אַף־יְהוָה עֲלֵיכֶם | kî ḥă-rôn ʼap̄-yəhōwāh ʿă-lê-ḵem} uses kî to introduce the equational nominal clause indicating divine wrath rests upon them. The maqqef in af–YHWH ties ‘anger’ directly to the covenant name of God, underscoring the personal nature of the warning.
