Leviticus 20:9 וַיִּקְרָא

Who acts: man, blood · What happens: be, curse, put · To what, where: father

This is Leviticus 20:9 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 — man, blood — and what happens in the verse to father, 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 27 chapters of Leviticus on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

כִּֽי־אִ֣ישׁ אִ֗ישׁ אֲשֶׁ֨ר יְקַלֵּ֧ל אֶת־אָבִ֛יו וְאֶת־אִמּ֖וֹ מ֣וֹת יוּמָ֑ת אָבִ֧יו וְאִמּ֛וֹ קִלֵּ֖ל דָּמָ֥יו בּֽוֹ׃

For whatsoever man there be that curseth his father or his mother shall surely be put to death; he hath cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon him.

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: inside a quote begun earlier
negation: no

verb	form · stem	who (A0)	what, whom (A1)
יְקַלֵּל he will curse	yiqtol · piel	אִישׁ a person	אָבִי father + אִמּ mother
יוּמָת he will be put to death	yiqtol · hophal		אִישׁ a person
קִלֵּל he has cursed	qatal · piel	אִישׁ a person	אָבִי father + אִמּ mother

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

אֲרֵי גְבַר גְבַר דִי יְלוּט יָת אֲבוּהִי וְיָת אִמֵהּ אִתְקְטָּלָא יִתְקְטֵל אֲבוּהִי וְאִמֵהּ לַטּ קְטָלָא חַיָב

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

For whatsoever man there be that curseth his father or his mother shall surely be put to death; he hath cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon him.
