Genesis 38:1 בְּרֵאשִׁית

Who acts: it, Judah, name, Hirah · What happens: come, pass, go down, turn in, be, name · To what, where: brethren, certain Adullamite, Hirah

This is Genesis 38:1 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 — it, Judah, name, Hirah — and what happens in the verse to brethren, certain Adullamite, Hirah, 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.

וַֽיְהִי֙ בָּעֵ֣ת הַהִ֔וא וַיֵּ֥רֶד יְהוּדָ֖ה מֵאֵ֣ת אֶחָ֑יו וַיֵּ֛ט עַד־אִ֥ישׁ עֲדֻלָּמִ֖י וּשְׁמ֥וֹ חִירָֽה׃

And it came to pass at that time, that Judah went down from his brethren, and turned in to a certain Adullamite, whose name was Hirah.

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)
יֵּרֶד he went down	wayyiqtol · qal	יְהוּדָה Judah
יֵּט he turned aside	wayyiqtol · qal	יְהוּדָה Judah

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

וַהֲוָה בְּעִדָּנָא הַהִיא וּנְחַת יְהוּדָה מִלְּוַת אֲחוֹהִי וּסְטָא עַד גַּבְרָא עֲדֻלָּמָאָה וּשׁמֵהּ חִירָה

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