Genesis 41:57 בְּרֵאשִׁית

Who acts: countries, famine · What happens: come, buy, be · To what, where: Joseph, Egypt, corn, earth

This is Genesis 41:57 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 — countries, famine — and what happens in the verse to Joseph, Egypt, corn, earth, 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.

וְכָל־הָאָ֙רֶץ֙ בָּ֣אוּ מִצְרַ֔יְמָה לִשְׁבֹּ֖ר אֶל־יוֹסֵ֑ף כִּֽי־חָזַ֥ק הָרָעָ֖ב בְּכָל־הָאָֽרֶץ׃

And all countries came into Egypt to Joseph to buy corn; because the famine was sore in all the earth.

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: narrator
speech: narration
negation: no

verb	form · stem	who (A0)
בָּאוּ they came	qatal · qal	אָרֶץ earth
שְׁבֹּר buy grain	infinitive construct · qal	אָרֶץ earth
חָזַק it was severe	qatal · qal	רָעָב famine

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

וְכָל דָּיְרֵי אַרְעָא עַלּוּ לְמִצְרַיִם לְמִזְבַּן עִיבוּרָא מִן יוֹסֵף אֲרֵי תְקֵיף כַּפְנָא בְּכָל אַרְעָא

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