Deuteronomy 21:17 דְּבָרִים

Who acts: man, right · What happens: acknowledge, give, have, be · To what, where: first born, double portion, man, first fruits, husband

This is Deuteronomy 21:17 from Mova's open Bible corpus, the Tanakh in three languages (The Torah). 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 — man, right — and what happens in the verse to first born, double portion, man, first fruits, husband, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the Aramaic of Targum Onkelos 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 34 chapters of Deuteronomy on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

כִּי֩ אֶת־הַבְּכֹ֨ר בֶּן־הַשְּׂנוּאָ֜ה יַכִּ֗יר לָ֤תֶת לוֹ֙ פִּ֣י שְׁנַ֔יִם בְּכֹ֥ל אֲשֶׁר־יִמָּצֵ֖א ל֑וֹ כִּי־הוּא֙ רֵאשִׁ֣ית אֹנ֔וֹ ל֖וֹ מִשְׁפַּ֥ט הַבְּכֹרָֽה׃ס

but he shall acknowledge the first-born, the son of the hated, by giving him a double portion of all that he hath; for he is the first-fruits of his strength, the right of the first-born is his.

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
act: assert
voice: character
speech: inside a quote begun earlier
negation: no

verb	form · stem	who (A0)	what, whom (A1)
שְּׂנוּאָה the hated [wife]	participle passive · qal
יַכִּיר he will acknowledge	yiqtol · hiphil	בְּכֹר firstborn
תֶת giving	infinitive construct · qal		פִּי a mouth

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.

Targum Onkelos

אֲרֵי יָת בּוּכְרָא בַר שְׂנִיאֲתָא יַפְרַשׁ לְמִתַּן לֵהּ תַּרְתֵּין חָלָקִין בְּכֹל דִי יִשְׁתְּכַח לֵהּ אֲרֵי הוּא רֵישׁ תָּקְפֵּהּ לֵהּ חָזְיָא בְכֵרוּתָא

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