Exegesis
A coordinating vav links to the remnant (yitram {יִתְרָם | yit-ṯā-rām} ‘remnant’), which with the Qal perfect akhlah {אָכְלָה | ʾō-ḵlāh} ‘has consumed’ and esh {אֵשׁ | ʾēš} ‘fire’ as subject completes the clause. This chiastic structure—removal followed by consumption—underscores the total defeat of those opposed.
Root and etymology
י־ת־ר
“to remain”
In context — Job 22:20
Surely our opponents are cut off, and fire has consumed what remained of them.
