Exegesis
The conjunction ki {כִּי־ | kî} signals the causal clause, where esh {אֵשׁ | ʾēš} ‘fire’ with Qal perfect kadcha {קָדְחָה | qā-ḏ-ḥāh} ‘has been kindled’ functions as a metaphor for divine wrath.
In context — Jeremiah 15:14
And I will make you serve your enemies in a land you have not known, for a fire has been kindled in My anger , and it shall burn upon you.
