rûwach
their anger
רוּחַ (rûaḥ) most fundamentally refers to air in motion, that is, wind or breath, with extended meanings encompassing both natural and anthropomorphic senses. It denotes (1) wind—atmospheric movement; (2) breath—the vital force animating living beings; (3) by extension, spirit—as an invisible, animating quality, particularly of humans or supernatural beings; (4) disposition or state of mind—ranging from courage and will to anger or mood. Less commonly, it can refer to the direction from which the wind blows (a 'quarter' or region). The term is used both concretely (physical wind, breath) and abstractly (vital, mental, or spiritual faculties). The semantic range further covers idiomatic senses such as vanity or unsubstantiality, where something is likened to insubstantial wind.
