Genesis 39:4 בְּרֵאשִׁית

Who acts: Joseph · What happens: find, minister, sight, appoint, have, put · To what, where: favour, sight, LORD, house, all, hand

This is Genesis 39:4 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 — Joseph — and what happens in the verse to favour, sight, LORD, house, all, hand, 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.

וַיִּמְצָ֨א יוֹסֵ֥ף חֵ֛ן בְּעֵינָ֖יו וַיְשָׁ֣רֶת אֹת֑וֹ וַיַּפְקִדֵ֙הוּ֙ עַל־בֵּית֔וֹ וְכָל־יֶשׁ־ל֖וֹ נָתַ֥ן בְּיָדֽוֹ׃

And Joseph found favour in his sight, and he ministered unto him. And he appointed him overseer over his house, and all that he had he put into his hand.

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.

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

וְאַשְׁכַּח יוֹסֵף רַחֲמִין בְּעֵינוֹהִי וְשַׁמֵּשׁ יָתֵהּ וּמַנְיֵהּ עַל בֵּיתֵהּ וְכָל דִּי אִית לֵהּ מְסַר בִּידֵהּ

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