Genesis 48:10 בְּרֵאשִׁית

Who acts: eyes, Israel · What happens: be, not see, bring, kiss, embrace · To what, where: eyes

This is Genesis 48:10 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 — eyes, Israel — and what happens in the verse to eyes, 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.

וְעֵינֵ֤י יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ כָּבְד֣וּ מִזֹּ֔קֶן לֹ֥א יוּכַ֖ל לִרְא֑וֹת וַיַּגֵּ֤שׁ אֹתָם֙ אֵלָ֔יו וַיִּשַּׁ֥ק לָהֶ֖ם וַיְחַבֵּ֥ק לָהֶֽם׃

Now the eyes of Israel were dim for age, so that he could not see. And he brought them near unto him; and he kissed them, and embraced them.

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.

Targum Onkelos

וְעֵינֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל יְקָרָן מִסֵּיבוּ לָא יִכּוּל לְמֶחֱזֵי וְקָרִיב יָתְהוֹן לְוָתֵהּ וְנַשִּׁיק לְהוֹן וְגַפִּיף לְהוֹן

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