Deuteronomy 31:19 דְּבָרִים

Who acts: ye, thou, song · What happens: write, teach, put, be · To what, where: song, children, mouths, witness

This is Deuteronomy 31:19 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 — ye, thou, song — and what happens in the verse to song, children, mouths, witness, 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.

וְעַתָּ֗ה כִּתְב֤וּ לָכֶם֙ אֶת־הַשִּׁירָ֣ה הַזֹּ֔את וְלַמְּדָ֥הּ אֶת־בְּנֵי־יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל שִׂימָ֣הּ בְּפִיהֶ֑ם לְמַ֨עַן תִּהְיֶה־לִּ֜י הַשִּׁירָ֥ה הַזֹּ֛את לְעֵ֖ד בִּבְנֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃

Now therefore write ye this song for you, and teach thou it the children of Israel; put it in their mouths, that this song may be a witness for Me against the children of Israel.

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.

Targum Onkelos

וּכְעַן כְּתִיבוּ לְכוֹן יָת תֻּשְׁבַּחְתָּא הָדָא וְאַלְפַהּ יָת בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל שַׁוְיַהּ בְּפוּמְהוֹן בְּדִיל דִתְהֵי קֳדָמַי תֻּשְׁבַּחְתָּא הָדָא לְסָהִיד בִּבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל

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