Exegesis
The prepositional phrase bega'arat YHWH {בְּגַעֲרַ֣ת יְהוָ֔ה | bĕgaʿārat Yə-hō-wāh} “at the rebuke of the LORD” establishes causation, and the nested metaphor minishmat ruach appo {מִנִּשְׁמַ֖ת ר֥וּחַ אַפּֽוֹ | minšammāt rūaḥ ’appô} “from the breath of the wind of His nostril” layers imagery of divine judgment. English reorder preserves poetic parallelism and the escalation of divine acts.
In context — 2 Samuel 22:16
Then the channels of the sea came into view, and the foundations of the world were uncovered at the LORD’s rebuke, at the blast of the breath from His nostrils.
