Numbers 35:16 בְּמִדְבַּר

Who acts: person · What happens: smite, die, be, put · To what, where: Israel, murderer

This is Numbers 35:16 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 — person — and what happens in the verse to Israel, murderer, 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.

וְאִם־בִּכְלִ֨י בַרְזֶ֧ל ׀ הִכָּ֛הוּ וַיָּמֹ֖ת רֹצֵ֣חַֽ ה֑וּא מ֥וֹת יוּמַ֖ת הָרֹצֵֽחַ׃

But if he smote him with an instrument of iron, so that he died, he is a murderer; the murderer shall surely be put to death.

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.

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

וְאִם בְּמָאן דְפַרְזְלָא מְחָהִי וְקַטְלֵהּ קָטוֹלָא הוּא אִתְקְטָלָא יִתְקְטֵל קָטוֹלָא

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