Deuteronomy 23:21 in Hebrew with its dependency --- [Mova](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) · [this page in HTML](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/DEU.23.21/) [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 23](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/DEU/23/) / 23:21 # Deuteronomy 23:21 דְּבָרִים **Who acts:** thou, LORD · **What happens:** lend, not lend, bless, put, go in, possess · **To what, where:** thee, all, hand This is Deuteronomy 23:21 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 — and what happens in the verse to thee, all, hand, 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. לַנָּכְרִ֣י תַשִּׁ֔יךְ וּלְאָחִ֖יךָ לֹ֣א תַשִּׁ֑יךְ לְמַ֨עַן יְבָרֶכְךָ֜ יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֗יךָ בְּכֹל֙ מִשְׁלַ֣ח יָדֶ֔ךָ עַל־הָאָ֕רֶץ אֲשֶׁר־אַתָּ֥ה בָא־שָׁ֖מָּה לְרִשְׁתָּֽהּ׃ס [Unto a foreigner thou mayest lend upon interest; but unto thy brother thou shalt not lend upon interest; that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all that thou puttest thy hand unto, in the land whither thou goest in to possess it.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/DEU.634/) ## 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:627 # text = לַנָּכְרִ֣י תַשִּׁ֔יךְ וּלְאָחִ֖יךָ לֹ֣א תַשִּׁ֑יךְ לְמַ֨עַן יְבָרֶכְךָ֜ יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֗יךָ בְּכֹל֙ מִשְׁלַ֣ח יָדֶ֔ךָ עַל־הָאָ֕רֶץ אֲשֶׁר־אַתָּ֥ה בָא־שָׁ֖מָּה לְרִשְׁתָּֽהּ׃ס # verse = DEU.23.21 1-3 לַנָּכְרִ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 לַ לְ ADP _ _ 3 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DEU_23:21!1|MId=o050230210011|Strong=3807a 2 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 3 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=DEU_23:21!1|MId=o050230210011ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 3 נָּכְרִ֣י נׇכְרִי ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 4 obl _ Gloss=foreigner|Ref=DEU_23:21!1|MId=o050230210012|Strong=5237|Type=adjective 4 תַשִּׁ֔יךְ נָשַׁךְ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=you.will.charge.interest|Ref=DEU_23:21!2|MId=o050230210021|Strong=5391a|Frame=A0:050230180101;|Type=yiqtol 5-8 וּלְאָחִ֖יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 10 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_23:21!3|MId=o050230210031|Strong=2050b 6 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DEU_23:21!3|MId=o050230210032|Strong=3807a 7 אָחִ֖י אָח NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 10 obl _ Gloss=countryman|Ref=DEU_23:21!3|MId=o050230210033|Strong=0251 8 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 7 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=DEU_23:21!3|MId=o050230210034|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 9 לֹ֣א לֹא ADV _ _ 10 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=DEU_23:21!4|MId=o050230210041|Strong=3808|Type=negative 10 תַשִּׁ֑יךְ נָשַׁךְ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=2 4 conj _ Gloss=you.will.charge.interest|Ref=DEU_23:21!5|MId=o050230210051|Strong=5391a|Frame=A0:050230180101;|Type=yiqtol 11 לְמַ֨עַן לְמַעַן SCONJ _ _ 12 mark _ Gloss=so.that|Ref=DEU_23:21!6|MId=o050230210061|Strong=4616 12-13 יְבָרֶכְךָ֜ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 יְבָרֶכ בָּרַךְ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=3 4 parataxis _ Gloss=he|Ref=DEU_23:21!7|MId=o050230210071|Strong=1288|Frame=A1:050230210072;A0:050230210081;|Type=yiqtol 13 ְךָ֜ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 12 obj _ Gloss=may.bless.you|Ref=DEU_23:21!7|MId=o050230210072|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 14 יְהוָ֣ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 12 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=DEU_23:21!8|MId=o050230210081|Strong=3068 15-16 אֱלֹהֶ֗יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 אֱלֹהֶ֗י אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 14 appos _ Gloss=God|Ref=DEU_23:21!9|MId=o050230210091|Strong=0430 16 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 15 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=DEU_23:21!9|MId=o050230210092|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 17-18 בְּכֹל֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=DEU_23:21!10|MId=o050230210101|Strong=0871a 18 כֹל֙ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 12 obl _ Gloss=every|Ref=DEU_23:21!10|MId=o050230210102|Strong=3605 19 מִשְׁלַ֣ח מִשְׁלַח NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 18 compound:smixut _ Gloss=(the).undertaking|Ref=DEU_23:21!11|MId=o050230210111|Strong=4916 20-21 יָדֶ֔ךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 יָד יָד NOUN _ Number=Sing 19 compound:smixut _ Gloss=your.hand|Ref=DEU_23:21!12|MId=o050230210121|Strong=3027 21 ֶ֔ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 20 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=DEU_23:21!12|MId=o050230210122|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 22 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 24 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=DEU_23:21!13|MId=o050230210131|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 23-24 הָאָ֕רֶץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 24 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=DEU_23:21!14|MId=o050230210141|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 24 אָ֕רֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 12 obl _ Gloss=land|Ref=DEU_23:21!14|MId=o050230210142|Strong=0776 25 אֲשֶׁר־ אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 27 mark _ Gloss=where|Ref=DEU_23:21!15|MId=o050230210151|Strong=0834|Type=relative|SpaceAfter=No 26 אַתָּ֥ה אַתָּה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 27 nsubj _ Gloss=you|Ref=DEU_23:21!16|MId=o050230210161|Strong=0859|Type=personal 27 בָא־ בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 24 acl:relcl _ Gloss=[are].about.to.go|Ref=DEU_23:21!17|MId=o050230210171|Strong=0935|Frame=A0:050230210161;|Type=participle_active|SpaceAfter=No 28-29 שָׁ֖מָּה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 28 שָׁ֖מּ שָׁם ADV _ _ 27 advmod _ Gloss=to|Ref=DEU_23:21!18|MId=o050230210181|Strong=8033 29 ָה ה X _ _ 28 nmod _ Gloss=(to)|Ref=DEU_23:21!18|MId=o050230210182|Strong=1886c|Type=directional_he 30-32 לְרִשְׁתָּֽהּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 30 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 31 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DEU_23:21!19|MId=o050230210191|Strong=3807a 31 רִשְׁתּ יָרַשׁ VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 27 advcl _ Gloss=take|Ref=DEU_23:21!19|MId=o050230210192|Strong=3423|Frame=A0:050230180101;A1:050230210193;|Type=infinitive_construct 32 ָֽהּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 31 obj _ Gloss=possession.of.it|Ref=DEU_23:21!19|MId=o050230210193|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 33 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 32 punct _ Ref=DEU_23:21!19|SpaceAfter=No 34 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 32 punct _ Ref=DEU_23:21!19 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
