| Morphological Notes | Preposition מִן ("from") + masculine plural construct noun (Ncmpc) from דָּם. The construct form דְּמֵי indicates it governs a following genitive. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun דָּם appears here in the masculine plural construct form (דְּמֵי), preceded by the preposition מִן ("from"). The plural "bloods" reflects the Hebrew plural form, which often conveys bloodshed or multiple acts of violence, and the construct state requires the sense "of" linking it to what follows. |
