Genesis 27:12 בְּרֵאשִׁית

Who acts: father, I · What happens: feel, seem, bring · To what, where: me, father, curse

This is Genesis 27:12 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 — father, I — and what happens in the verse to me, father, curse, 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 50 chapters of Genesis on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

אוּלַ֤י יְמֻשֵּׁ֙נִי֙ אָבִ֔י וְהָיִ֥יתִי בְעֵינָ֖יו כִּמְתַעְתֵּ֑עַ וְהֵבֵאתִ֥י עָלַ֛י קְלָלָ֖ה וְלֹ֥א בְרָכָֽה׃

My father peradventure will feel me, and I shall seem to him as a mocker; and I shall bring a curse upon me, and not a blessing.'

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: yes

verb	form · stem	who (A0)	what, whom (A1)
יְמֻשּׁ he	yiqtol · qal	אָב father	ֵנִי will feel me
הָיִיתִי I will be	qatal · qal
not הֵבֵאתִי I will bring	weqatal · hiphil	קְלָלָה a curse

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

מָאִים יְמֻשִּׁנַּנִי אַבָּא וְאֵהֵי בְעֵינוֹהִי כְּמִתְלָעָב וְאֵהֵי מַיְתֵי (נ''י וָאֱהִי מַיְתֵי) עֲלַי לְוָטִין וְלָא בִרְכָן

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