Genesis 29:9 בְּרֵאשִׁית

Who acts: Jacob, Rachel · What happens: speak, come, tend · To what, where: cattle · Speech: someone speaks in this verse

This is Genesis 29:9 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 — Jacob, Rachel — and what happens in the verse to cattle, 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.

עוֹדֶ֖נּוּ מְדַבֵּ֣ר עִמָּ֑ם וְרָחֵ֣ל ׀ בָּ֗אָה עִם־הַצֹּאן֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר לְאָבִ֔יהָ כִּ֥י רֹעָ֖ה הִֽוא׃

While he was yet speaking with them, Rachel came with her father's sheep; for she tended them.

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)
מְדַבֵּר [was] speaking	participle active · piel	ֶנּוּ he

רֹעָה [was] a shepherdess	participle active · qal	הִֽוא she

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

עַד דְהוּא מְמַלֵל עִמְהוֹן וְרָחֵל אָתַת עִם עָנָא דִי לַאֲבוּהָ אֲרֵי רָעִיתָא הִיא

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