Deuteronomy 17:14 in Hebrew with its dependency tree, Targum Onkelos, --- [Mova](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) · [this page in HTML](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/DEU.17.14/) [home](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) / [corpora](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/) / [Tanakh](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/tanakh/) / [Torah](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/) / [Deuteronomy](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/DEU/) / [chapter 17](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/DEU/17/) / 17:14 # Deuteronomy 17:14 דְּבָרִים **Who acts:** thou, LORD, I · **What happens:** come, give, possess, dwell, say, set · **To what, where:** land, thee, king · **Speech:** someone speaks in this verse This is Deuteronomy 17:14 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 — thou, LORD, I — and what happens in the verse to land, thee, king, 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 34 chapters of Deuteronomy on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. כִּֽי־תָבֹ֣א אֶל־הָאָ֗רֶץ אֲשֶׁ֨ר יְהוָ֤ה אֱלֹהֶ֙יךָ֙ נֹתֵ֣ן לָ֔ךְ וִֽירִשְׁתָּ֖הּ וְיָשַׁ֣בְתָּה בָּ֑הּ וְאָמַרְתָּ֗ אָשִׂ֤ימָה עָלַי֙ מֶ֔לֶךְ כְּכָל־הַגּוֹיִ֖ם אֲשֶׁ֥ר סְבִיבֹתָֽי׃ [When thou art come unto the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, and shalt possess it, and shalt dwell therein; and shalt say: 'I will set a king over me, like all the nations that are round about me';](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/DEU.492/) ## The tree {#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. ```conllu rtl gloss # sent_id = wlc:DEU:485 # text = כִּֽי־תָבֹ֣א אֶל־הָאָ֗רֶץ אֲשֶׁ֨ר יְהוָ֤ה אֱלֹהֶ֙יךָ֙ נֹתֵ֣ן לָ֔ךְ וִֽירִשְׁתָּ֖הּ וְיָשַׁ֣בְתָּה בָּ֑הּ וְאָמַרְתָּ֗ אָשִׂ֤ימָה עָלַי֙ מֶ֔לֶךְ כְּכָל־הַגּוֹיִ֖ם אֲשֶׁ֥ר סְבִיבֹתָֽי׃ # verse = DEU.17.14 1 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 2 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=DEU_17:14!1|MId=o050170140011|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 2 תָבֹ֣א בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=you.will.go|Ref=DEU_17:14!2|MId=o050170140021|Strong=0935|Frame=A0:050170130022;|Type=yiqtol 3 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=into|Ref=DEU_17:14!3|MId=o050170140031|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 4-5 הָאָ֗רֶץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 5 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=DEU_17:14!4|MId=o050170140041|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 5 אָ֗רֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=land|Ref=DEU_17:14!4|MId=o050170140042|Strong=0776 6 אֲשֶׁ֨ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 10 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=DEU_17:14!5|MId=o050170140051|Strong=0834|Type=relative 7 יְהוָ֤ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 10 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=DEU_17:14!6|MId=o050170140061|Strong=3068 8-9 אֱלֹהֶ֙יךָ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 אֱלֹהֶ֙י אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 7 appos _ Gloss=God|Ref=DEU_17:14!7|MId=o050170140071|Strong=0430 9 ךָ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 8 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=DEU_17:14!7|MId=o050170140072|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 10 נֹתֵ֣ן נָתַן VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 5 acl:relcl _ Gloss=[is].about.to.give|Ref=DEU_17:14!8|MId=o050170140081|Strong=5414|Frame=A0:050170140061;A1:050170140042;|Type=participle_active 11-12 לָ֔ךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 ל לְ ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DEU_17:14!9|MId=o050170140091|Strong=3807a 12 ָ֔ךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 10 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=DEU_17:14!9|MId=o050170140092|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 13-15 וִֽירִשְׁתָּ֖הּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 וִֽ וְ CCONJ _ _ 14 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_17:14!10|MId=o050170140101|Strong=2050b 14 ירִשְׁתָּ֖ יָרַשׁ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 2 conj _ Gloss=you|Ref=DEU_17:14!10|MId=o050170140102|Strong=3423|Frame=A0:050170130022;A1:050170140103;|Type=weqatal 15 הּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 14 obj _ Gloss=will.take.possession.of.it|Ref=DEU_17:14!10|MId=o050170140103|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 16-17 וְיָשַׁ֣בְתָּה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 17 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_17:14!11|MId=o050170140111|Strong=2050b 17 יָשַׁ֣בְתָּה יָשַׁב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 2 conj _ Gloss=you.will.dwell|Ref=DEU_17:14!11|MId=o050170140112|Strong=3427|Frame=A0:050170130022;|Type=weqatal 18-19 בָּ֑הּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 בּ בְּ ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=DEU_17:14!12|MId=o050170140121|Strong=0871a 19 ָ֑הּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 17 obl _ Gloss=it|Ref=DEU_17:14!12|MId=o050170140122|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 20-21 וְאָמַרְתָּ֗ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 21 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_17:14!13|MId=o050170140131|Strong=2050b 21 אָמַרְתָּ֗ אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 2 conj _ Gloss=you.will.say|Ref=DEU_17:14!13|MId=o050170140132|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:050170130022;|Type=weqatal 22 אָשִׂ֤ימָה שׂים VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 21 ccomp _ Gloss=let.me.appoint|Ref=DEU_17:14!14|MId=o050170140141|Strong=7760|Frame=A0:050170130022;A1:050170140161;|Type=cohortative 23-24 עָלַי֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 עָל עַל ADP _ _ 24 case _ Gloss=over|Ref=DEU_17:14!15|MId=o050170140151|Strong=5921 24 ַי֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 22 obl _ Gloss=myself|Ref=DEU_17:14!15|MId=o050170140152|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 25 מֶ֔לֶךְ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 22 obj _ Gloss=a.king|Ref=DEU_17:14!16|MId=o050170140161|Strong=4428 26-27 כְּכָל־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 כְּ כְּ ADP _ _ 27 case _ Gloss=like|Ref=DEU_17:14!17|MId=o050170140171|Strong=3509a 27 כָל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 22 obl _ Gloss=all|Ref=DEU_17:14!17|MId=o050170140172|Strong=3605 28-29 הַגּוֹיִ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 28 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 29 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=DEU_17:14!18|MId=o050170140181|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 29 גּוֹיִ֖ם גּוֹי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 27 compound:smixut _ Gloss=nations|Ref=DEU_17:14!18|MId=o050170140182|Strong=1471 30 אֲשֶׁ֥ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 31 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=DEU_17:14!19|MId=o050170140191|Strong=0834|Type=relative 31-32 סְבִיבֹתָֽי _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 31 סְבִיבֹת סָבִיב ADV _ Number=Plur 27 acl:relcl _ Gloss=[are].around|Ref=DEU_17:14!20|MId=o050170140201|Strong=5439 32 ָֽי הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 31 nmod:poss _ Gloss=me|Ref=DEU_17:14!20|MId=o050170140202|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 33 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 32 punct _ Ref=DEU_17:14!20 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
