Psalms 89:49 תְּהִלִּים

Who acts: wrath · What happens: be, live, not see, deliver · To what, where: man, death, soul, power

This is Psalms 89:49 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 — wrath — and what happens in the verse to man, death, soul, power, 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.

מִ֤י גֶ֣בֶר יִֽ֭חְיֶה וְלֹ֣א יִרְאֶה־מָּ֑וֶת יְמַלֵּ֨ט נַפְשׁ֖וֹ מִיַּד־שְׁא֣וֹל סֶֽלָה׃

What man is he that liveth and shall not see death, that shall deliver his soul from the power of the grave?

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: wh-question
act: ask
voice: character
speech: inside a quote begun earlier
negation: yes

verb	form · stem	who (A0)	what, whom (A1)
יִֽחְיֶה [who] he will live	yiqtol · qal	גֶבֶר [is the] man

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

מַן הוּא גַבְרָא דִיחֵי וְלָא יֶחֱמֵי מַלְאֲכָא דְמוֹתָא וְשֵׁזֵיב נַפְשֵׁיהּ מִן יְדֵיהּ וְלָא יֵיחוֹת לְבֵית קְבוּרְתֵּיהּ לְעָלְמִין:

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.

What man is he that liveth and shall not see death, that shall deliver his soul from the power of the grave?
