The Sermon on the Mount, sentence 5

For a child today it means: stop a fight instead of joining it, wish good even for someone who was mean, check your own faults before pointing at others, and care more about people than about stuff.

Who acts: child, your · What happens: mean, stop, join, wish, be, check · To what, where: fight, good, own faults, others

The tree: Mova annot: Rust (en) → Haiku 5.5 (medium, Batches API) patches; gates UD 2.18; agreed by treeagree rules (Stanza, Trankit, spaCy trf): R5-strong ×1, R7-rel-agree ×1. The frames are read from the tree by Mova's frames reader (prag) when this page is built, the lesson read in order, so a pronoun may be resolved from an earlier sentence.
