Exegesis
Each clause begins with the noun mits {מִ֪יץ | mîṣ} ‘pressing,’ followed by the Hiphil imperfect yoṣîʾ {י֘וֹצִ֤יא | yōṣîʾ} ‘it brings forth,’ and concludes with result nouns ḥeməʾāh {חֶמְאָ֗ה | ḥeməʾāh} ‘curds,’ dām {דָ֑ם | dām} ‘blood,’ or rîḇ {רִֽיב | rîḇ} ‘strife.’
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 .
