Exegesis
The dual noun appayim {אַ֝פַּיִם | ʾappāyim} carries both ‘nostrils’ and idiomatic ‘anger,’ intensifying the final parallel. In English, the formal translation preserves the literal sequence, whereas the dynamic translation employs a simile framework (‘just as … so’) for enhanced readability.
In context — Proverbs 30:33
For the pressing of milk brings forth curds, the pressing of the nose brings forth blood, and pressing anger brings forth strife .
