Ecclesiastes 3:13 קֹהֶלֶת

Who acts: man · What happens: eat, drink, enjoy, be · To what, where: pleasure, gift

This is Ecclesiastes 3:13 from Mova's open Bible corpus, the Tanakh in three languages (Ketuvim — the Writings). The page gives the verse in Hebrew as the Westminster Leningrad Codex has it, its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies, built from MACULA Hebrew — and its pragmatics: who acts — man — and what happens in the verse to pleasure, gift, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the Aramaic of the Targum and the English of the Jewish Publication Society's 1917 translation, each English sentence with a tree of its own. It is one of the 12 chapters of Ecclesiastes on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

וְגַ֤ם כָּל־הָאָדָם֙ שֶׁיֹּאכַ֣ל וְשָׁתָ֔ה וְרָאָ֥ה ט֖וֹב בְּכָל־עֲמָל֑וֹ מַתַּ֥ת אֱלֹהִ֖ים הִֽיא׃

But also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy pleasure for all his labour, is the gift of God.

The tree

Right to left, as the Hebrew is read; a prefix or suffix is a word of its own, and a line under the words joins those written as one. Under each word its part of speech and MACULA's English gloss.

Pragmatics

form: statement
act: assert
voice: character
speech: inside a quote begun earlier
negation: no

verb	form · stem	who (A0)	what, whom (A1)
יֹּאכַל he will eat	yiqtol · qal	אָדָם person
שָׁתָה he will drink	weqatal · qal	אָדָם person
רָאָה he will see	weqatal · qal	אָדָם person	טוֹב good

MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant. A0 is the one who acts, A1 what the act is done to or is about, A2 a further participant; AA, with a causative verb, the one who makes it happen.

The Targum

וְאוֹף כָּל אֵינַשׁ דְּיֵיכוֹל וְיִשְׁתֵּי וְיֶחֱזֵי טָב בְּיוֹמוֹי וְיַחְסִין לִבְנוֹי בְּעִדָּן מוֹתֵיהּ כָּל טַרְחוּתֵיהּ מַתְּנָן דְּאִתְיְהִיבַת לֵיהּ מִן קֳדָם יְיָ הוּא:

The Aramaic translation read beside the Hebrew. Text only: Mova has no Aramaic parser yet.

Each sentence on its own page, with its tree and pragmatics. A sentence that runs on into the next verse is listed under the verse it begins in.

But also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy pleasure for all his labour, is the gift of God.
