Ruth 1:17 רוּת

Who acts: thou, I, LORD, aught · What happens: die, bury, do, part · To what, where: I, me, thee

This is Ruth 1:17 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 — thou, I, LORD, aught — and what happens in the verse to I, me, thee, 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 4 chapters of Ruth on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

בַּאֲשֶׁ֤ר תָּמ֙וּתִי֙ אָמ֔וּת וְשָׁ֖ם אֶקָּבֵ֑ר כֹּה֩ יַעֲשֶׂ֨ה יְהוָ֥ה לִי֙ וְכֹ֣ה יֹסִ֔יף כִּ֣י הַמָּ֔וֶת יַפְרִ֖יד בֵּינִ֥י וּבֵינֵֽךְ׃

where thou diest, will I die, and there will I be buried; the LORD do so to me, and more also, if aught but death part thee and me.'

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

אֲמַרַת נָעֳמִי אִית לַנָא אַרְבַּע דִּינֵי מוֹתָא לְחַיָּבַיָּא רְגֵימַת אַבְנָא וִיקֵידַת נוּרָא וּקְטֵילַת סַיְפָא וּצְלֵיבַת קֵיסָא אֲמַרַת רוּת בְּכָל מַה דִּתְמוּתִי אֲמוּת אֲמַרַת נָעֳמִי אִית לַנָא בֵּית קְבוּרְתָא אֲמַרַת רוּת וְתַמָּן אֱהֶא קְבִירָא וְלָא תוֹסִיפִי עוֹד לְמַלָּלָא כִּדְנָן יַעֲבֵיד יְיָ לִי וְכִדְנָן יוֹסִיף עֲלַי אֲרוּם מוֹתָא יְהֵי מַפְרֵישׁ בֵּינִי וּבֵינָךְ:

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.

where thou diest, will I die, and there will I be buried; the LORD do so to me, and more also, if aught but death part thee and me.'
