Exegesis
The temporal phrase beyom appo {בְּי֣וֹם אַפּֽוֹ | bə-yôm ʾap-pô} ‘in the day of his anger’ sets the event within the decisive moment of divine wrath; the genitive pronoun of appo refers to God's anger, clarifying the divine source of destruction. In translation, the parallel verbs “depart” and “flow away” preserve the Hebrew pattern of sequential intensification, and the phrase “day of God’s anger” emphasizes divine judgment.
In context — Job 20:28
The increase of his house will depart; it will flow away in the day of God's anger.
