Exegesis
The prepositional phrase alai {עָלַ֣י | ʿā-lay} ‘against me’ is placed immediately after the first verb, heightening the personal impact before the subject is specified by appo {אַפּ֑וֹ | ʾap-pô} ‘His anger,’ an anthropomorphic idiom (literally “His nose”) for wrath.
In context — Job 19:11
His anger burned against me, and He regarded me as one of His adversaries.
