Deuteronomy 17:2 in Hebrew with its dependency tree, Targum Onke --- [Mova](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) · [this page in HTML](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/DEU.17.2/) [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/) / 17:2 # Deuteronomy 17:2 דְּבָרִים **Who acts:** LORD, that, man · **What happens:** find, give, man, do, be, transgress · **To what, where:** man, midst, gates, thee, sight, covenant This is Deuteronomy 17:2 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 — LORD, that, man — and what happens in the verse to man, midst, gates, thee, sight, covenant, 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־יִמָּצֵ֤א בְקִרְבְּךָ֙ בְּאַחַ֣ד שְׁעָרֶ֔יךָ אֲשֶׁר־יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֶ֖יךָ נֹתֵ֣ן לָ֑ךְ אִ֣ישׁ אוֹ־אִשָּׁ֗ה אֲשֶׁ֨ר יַעֲשֶׂ֧ה אֶת־הָרַ֛ע בְּעֵינֵ֥י יְהוָֽה־אֱלֹהֶ֖יךָ לַעֲבֹ֥ר בְּרִיתֽוֹ׃ [If there be found in the midst of thee, within any of thy gates which the LORD thy God giveth thee, man or woman, that doeth that which is evil in the sight of the LORD thy God, in transgressing His covenant,](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/DEU.479/) ## 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:473 # text = כִּֽי־יִמָּצֵ֤א בְקִרְבְּךָ֙ בְּאַחַ֣ד שְׁעָרֶ֔יךָ אֲשֶׁר־יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֶ֖יךָ נֹתֵ֣ן לָ֑ךְ אִ֣ישׁ אוֹ־אִשָּׁ֗ה אֲשֶׁ֨ר יַעֲשֶׂ֧ה אֶת־הָרַ֛ע בְּעֵינֵ֥י יְהוָֽה־אֱלֹהֶ֖יךָ לַעֲבֹ֥ר בְּרִיתֽוֹ׃ # verse = DEU.17.2 1 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 2 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=DEU_17:2!1|MId=o050170020011|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 2 יִמָּצֵ֤א מָצָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.will.be.found|Ref=DEU_17:2!2|MId=o050170020021|Strong=4672|Frame=A1:050170020111;050170020131;|Type=yiqtol 3-5 בְקִרְבְּךָ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 בְ בְּ ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=DEU_17:2!3|MId=o050170020031|Strong=0871a 4 קִרְבּ קֶרֶב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=midst|Ref=DEU_17:2!3|MId=o050170020032|Strong=7130 5 ְךָ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 4 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=DEU_17:2!3|MId=o050170020033|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 6-7 בְּאַחַ֣ד _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=DEU_17:2!4|MId=o050170020041|Strong=0871a 7 אַחַ֣ד אֶחָד NUM _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 nummod _ Gloss=one|Ref=DEU_17:2!4|MId=o050170020042|Strong=0259|Type=cardinal_number 8-9 שְׁעָרֶ֔יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 שְׁעָרֶ֔י שַׁעַר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 2 obl _ Gloss=your.gates|Ref=DEU_17:2!5|MId=o050170020051|Strong=8179 9 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 8 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=DEU_17:2!5|MId=o050170020052|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 10 אֲשֶׁר־ אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 14 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=DEU_17:2!6|MId=o050170020061|Strong=0834|Type=relative|SpaceAfter=No 11 יְהוָ֥ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 14 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=DEU_17:2!7|MId=o050170020071|Strong=3068 12-13 אֱלֹהֶ֖יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 אֱלֹהֶ֖י אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 11 appos _ Gloss=God|Ref=DEU_17:2!8|MId=o050170020081|Strong=0430 13 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 12 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=DEU_17:2!8|MId=o050170020082|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 14 נֹתֵ֣ן נָתַן VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 8 acl:relcl _ Gloss=[is].about.to.give|Ref=DEU_17:2!9|MId=o050170020091|Strong=5414|Frame=A0:050170020071;A1:050170020051;|Type=participle_active 15-16 לָ֑ךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 ל לְ ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DEU_17:2!10|MId=o050170020101|Strong=3807a 16 ָ֑ךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 14 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=DEU_17:2!10|MId=o050170020102|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 17 אִ֣ישׁ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 nsubj _ Gloss=a.man|Ref=DEU_17:2!11|MId=o050170020111|Strong=0376 18 אוֹ־ אוֹ CCONJ _ _ 19 cc _ Gloss=or|Ref=DEU_17:2!12|MId=o050170020121|Strong=0176|SpaceAfter=No 19 אִשָּׁ֗ה אִשָּׁה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 17 conj _ Gloss=a.woman|Ref=DEU_17:2!13|MId=o050170020131|Strong=0802 20 אֲשֶׁ֨ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 21 mark _ Gloss=who|Ref=DEU_17:2!14|MId=o050170020141|Strong=0834|Type=relative 21 יַעֲשֶׂ֧ה עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 17 acl:relcl _ Gloss=he.will.do|Ref=DEU_17:2!15|MId=o050170020151|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:050170020111;050170020131;A1:050170020172;|Type=yiqtol 22 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 24 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=DEU_17:2!16|MId=o050170020161|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 23-24 הָרַ֛ע _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 24 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=DEU_17:2!17|MId=o050170020171|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 24 רַ֛ע רַע ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 21 obj _ Gloss=evil|Ref=DEU_17:2!17|MId=o050170020172|Strong=7451|Type=adjective 25-26 בְּעֵינֵ֥י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 26 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=DEU_17:2!18|MId=o050170020181|Strong=0871a 26 עֵינֵ֥י עַיִן NOUN _ Number=Dual 24 nmod _ Gloss=the.eyes|Ref=DEU_17:2!18|MId=o050170020182|Strong=5869 27 יְהוָֽה־ יהוה PROPN _ _ 26 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=DEU_17:2!19|MId=o050170020191|Strong=3068|SpaceAfter=No 28-29 אֱלֹהֶ֖יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 28 אֱלֹהֶ֖י אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 27 appos _ Gloss=God|Ref=DEU_17:2!20|MId=o050170020201|Strong=0430 29 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 28 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=DEU_17:2!20|MId=o050170020202|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 30-31 לַעֲבֹ֥ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 30 לַ לְ ADP _ _ 31 case _ Gloss=by|Ref=DEU_17:2!21|MId=o050170020211|Strong=3807a 31 עֲבֹ֥ר עָבַר VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 21 advcl _ Gloss=transgressing|Ref=DEU_17:2!21|MId=o050170020212|Strong=5674|Frame=A0:050170020111;050170020131;|Type=infinitive_construct 32-33 בְּרִיתֽוֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 32 בְּרִית בְּרִית NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 31 obl _ Gloss=covenant|Ref=DEU_17:2!22|MId=o050170020221|Strong=1285 33 ֽוֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 32 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=DEU_17:2!22|MId=o050170020222|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 34 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 33 punct _ Ref=DEU_17:2!22 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
