Exegesis
The phrase le'api {לְאַפִּי | lə-ʾā-pî} 'for my anger' expresses purpose, while the construct chain allizei {עַלִּיזֵי | al-lî-zē} 'those who rejoice' + ga'avati {גַּאֲוָתִי | ga-ʾă-vā-tî} 'my majesty' qualifies the mighty ones by their alignment with God’s exalted character. Hebrew object-fronting and construct parallelism emphasize divine agency and the cohesion of the heavenly host, which English renders through reordered clauses and relative phrasing for clarity.
In context — Isaiah 13:3
I have given command to my consecrated ones, and I have also called my mighty ones for my anger, those who exult in my majesty .
