Ecclesiastes 8:5 קֹהֶלֶת

Who acts: Whoso, heart · What happens: keep, know, discern · To what, where: commandment, evil thing

This is Ecclesiastes 8:5 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 — Whoso, heart — and what happens in the verse to commandment, evil thing, 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.

שׁוֹמֵ֣ר מִצְוָ֔ה לֹ֥א יֵדַ֖ע דָּבָ֣ר רָ֑ע וְעֵ֣ת וּמִשְׁפָּ֔ט יֵדַ֖ע לֵ֥ב חָכָֽם׃

Whoso keepeth the commandment shall know no evil thing; and a wise man's heart discerneth time and judgment.

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

voice: character
speech: inside a quote begun earlier
negation: yes

verb	form · stem	who (A0)	what, whom (A1)
שׁוֹמֵר [one who] keeps	participle active · qal		מִצְוָה (of) a command
not יֵדַע he will know	yiqtol · qal	שׁוֹמֵר [one who] keeps	דָּבָר a thing

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

גְּבַר דִי נְטִיר פִּקוּדַיָּא דַּיָי לָא יִנְדַּע מִדָּעַם בִּישׁ לְעַלְמָא דְּאָתֵי וְעִדָּן צְלוֹתָא וְדִין וּקְשׁוֹט אִשְׁתְּמוֹדַע בְּלֵב חַכִּימַיָא:

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