Both occurrences are masculine singular absolute nouns in scenes of distress. In Hosea 11:9 the APB renders the surrounding clause "I will not come in wrath," and in Jeremiah 15:8 it renders a sudden falling of "anguish and terror" upon her; the translation does not identify a one-to-one English equivalent for the noun.
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the two clauses with "wrath" in Hosea 11:9 and "terror" in Jeremiah 15:8. Because it is a whole-verse translation, its exact English contribution cannot be isolated with certainty.
