The infinitive construct phrase kega’at bah ruach ha-qadim {כְגַעַת בָּהּ רוּחַ הַקָּדִים | kəgaʿat bāh rūaḥ ha-qādim} ‘when the east wind touches it’ functions as a temporal cause clause indicating sudden adversity.

In contextEzekiel 17:10

And behold, it is planted—will it prosper? When the east wind touches it, it will dry up utterly on the beds of its growth .
