Psalms 34:11 תְּהִלִּים

Who acts: young lions, lions · What happens: lack, suffer, seek, not want · To what, where: hunger, LORD, good thing

This is Psalms 34:11 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 — young lions, lions — and what happens in the verse to hunger, LORD, good 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 150 chapters of Psalms on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

כְּ֭פִירִים רָשׁ֣וּ וְרָעֵ֑בוּ וְדֹרְשֵׁ֥י יְ֝הוָ֗ה לֹא־יַחְסְר֥וּ כָל־טֽוֹב׃

The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger; but they that seek the LORD want not any good thing.

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.

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

בְּנֵי אַרְיְוָן אִתְמַסְכַּנוּ וּכְפַנוּ וְתָבְעֵי אוּלְפָנָא דַייָ לָא חָסְרִין כָּל טוּבָא:

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