Ecclesiastes 5:13 קֹהֶלֶת

Who acts: riches, evil · What happens: perish, beget · To what, where: son

This is Ecclesiastes 5:13 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 — riches, evil — and what happens in the verse to son, 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.

וְאָבַ֛ד הָעֹ֥שֶׁר הַה֖וּא בְּעִנְיַ֣ן רָ֑ע וְהוֹלִ֣יד בֵּ֔ן וְאֵ֥ין בְּיָד֖וֹ מְאֽוּמָה׃

and those riches perish by evil adventure; and if he hath begotten a son, there is nothing in his hand.

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: narrator
speech: narration
negation: yes

verb	form · stem	who (A0)	what, whom (A1)	to whom, further (A2)	who makes it happen (AA)
not אָבַד it was lost	qatal · qal	עֹשֶׁר wealth
הוֹלִיד he fathered	qatal · hiphil	בֵּן a son

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

וְהַהוּא עָתְרָא דִי יִשְׁבַּק לִבְרֵיהּ בָּתַר מוֹתֵיהּ יְהוֹבַד עַל דִי קְנָא לֵיהּ בְּגַוָון בִּישׁ וְלָא יִתְקַיֵם בְּיַד בְּרֵיהּ דִי יוֹלִיד וְלָא אִשְׁתָּאֵר לֵיהּ בִּידוֹי מִדָּעַם:

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