Genesis 47:9 בְּרֵאשִׁית

Who acts: Jacob, days, few, sojournings · What happens: say, be, not attain · To what, where: hundred years, days · Speech: someone speaks in this verse

This is Genesis 47:9 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, days, few, sojournings — and what happens in the verse to hundred years, days, 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.

וַיֹּ֤אמֶר יַעֲקֹב֙ אֶל־פַּרְעֹ֔ה יְמֵי֙ שְׁנֵ֣י מְגוּרַ֔י שְׁלֹשִׁ֥ים וּמְאַ֖ת שָׁנָ֑ה מְעַ֣ט וְרָעִ֗ים הָיוּ֙ יְמֵי֙ שְׁנֵ֣י חַיַּ֔י וְלֹ֣א הִשִּׂ֗יגוּ אֶת־יְמֵי֙ שְׁנֵי֙ חַיֵּ֣י אֲבֹתַ֔י בִּימֵ֖י מְגוּרֵיהֶֽם׃

And Jacob said unto Pharaoh: 'The days of the years of my sojournings are a hundred and thirty years; few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, and they have not attained unto the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their sojournings.'

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: a frame and its quote
negation: yes
the frame alone: decl · narrate · none

verb	form · stem	who (A0)	who makes it happen (AA)
יֹּאמֶר he said	wayyiqtol · qal	יַעֲקֹב Jacob
הָיוּ they have been	qatal · qal	יְמֵי the days
not הִשִּׂיגוּ they have reached	qatal · hiphil	יְמֵי the days	יְמֵי the days

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

וַאֲמַר יַעֲקֹב לְפַרְעֹה יוֹמֵי שְׁנֵי תוֹתָבוּתַי מְאָה וּתְלָתִין שְׁנִין זְעֵירִין וּבִישִׁין הֲווֹ יוֹמֵי שְׁנֵי חַיַּי וְלָא אַדְבִּיקוּ יָת יוֹמֵי שְׁנֵי חַיֵּי אֲבָהָתַי בְּיוֹמֵי תּוֹתָבוּתְהוֹן
