Numbers 22:33 בְּמִדְבַּר

Who acts: ass, sword, I · What happens: see, turn, slain, save · To what, where: me, thee, sword

This is Numbers 22:33 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 — ass, sword, I — and what happens in the verse to me, thee, sword, 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 36 chapters of Numbers on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

וַתִּרְאַ֙נִי֙ הָֽאָת֔וֹן וַתֵּ֣ט לְפָנַ֔י זֶ֖ה שָׁלֹ֣שׁ רְגָלִ֑ים אוּלַי֙ נָטְתָ֣ה מִפָּנַ֔י כִּ֥י עַתָּ֛ה גַּם־אֹתְכָ֥ה הָרַ֖גְתִּי וְאוֹתָ֥הּ הֶחֱיֵֽיתִי׃

and the ass saw me, and turned aside before me these three times; unless she had turned aside from me, surely now I had even slain thee, and saved her alive.'

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)
תִּרְא it	wayyiqtol · qal	אָתוֹן donkey	ַנִי saw me
תֵּט it turned aside	wayyiqtol · qal	אָתוֹן donkey

הָרַגְתִּי I killed	qatal · qal		ְכָה you
הֶחֱיֵֽיתִי I preserved alive	qatal · hiphil	ָהּ it

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

וַחֲזַתְנִי אֲתָּנָא וּסְטַת מִן קֳדָמַי דְנַן תְּלַת זִמְנִין אִילוּפוֹן לָא סְטַּת מִן קֳדָמַי אֲרֵי כְעַן אַף יָתָךְ קְטָלִית וְיָתַהּ קַיֵימִית

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

Each sentence on its own page, with its tree and pragmatics. A sentence that runs on into the next verse is listed under the verse it begins in.

and the ass saw me, and turned aside before me these three times; unless she had turned aside from me, surely now I had even slain thee, and saved her alive.'
