Genesis 31:19 בְּרֵאשִׁית

Who acts: Laban, Rachel, teraphim · What happens: gone, shear, steal, be · To what, where: sheep, teraphim

This is Genesis 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 — Laban, Rachel, teraphim — and what happens in the verse to sheep, teraphim, 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.

וְלָבָ֣ן הָלַ֔ךְ לִגְזֹ֖ז אֶת־צֹאנ֑וֹ וַתִּגְנֹ֣ב רָחֵ֔ל אֶת־הַתְּרָפִ֖ים אֲשֶׁ֥ר לְאָבִֽיהָ׃

Now Laban was gone to shear his sheep. And Rachel stole the teraphim that were her father's.

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.

וְלָבָן אֲזַל לְמִגַּז יָת עָנֵהּ וּנְסִּבַת רָחֵל יָת צַלְמָנַיָּא דִּי לַאֲבוּהָא

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