Exodus 39:30 שְׁמוֹת

Who acts: colours · What happens: make, write, crown · To what, where: plate, writing, pure gold

This is Exodus 39:30 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 — colours — and what happens in the verse to plate, writing, pure gold, 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 40 chapters of Exodus on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

וַֽיַּעֲשׂ֛וּ אֶת־צִ֥יץ נֵֽזֶר־הַקֹּ֖דֶשׁ זָהָ֣ב טָה֑וֹר וַיִּכְתְּב֣וּ עָלָ֗יו מִכְתַּב֙ פִּתּוּחֵ֣י חוֹתָ֔ם קֹ֖דֶשׁ לַיהוָֽה׃

And they made the plate of the holy crown of pure gold, and wrote upon it a writing, like the engravings of a signet: HOLY TO THE LORD.

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: narrate
voice: narrator
speech: narration
negation: no

verb	form · stem	who (A0)	what, whom (A1)	to whom, further (A2)	who makes it happen (AA)
יַּעֲשׂוּ they made	wayyiqtol · qal		צִיץ the plate
יִּכְתְּבוּ they inscribed	wayyiqtol · qal		מִכְתַּב an inscription

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

וַעֲבָדוּ יָת צִיצָא כְלִילָא דְקוּדְשָׁא דְהַב דְכֵי וּכְתָבוּ עֲלוֹהִי גְלִיפָן כְּתַב מְפָרַשׁ קֹדֶשׁ לַיְיָ:

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