Deuteronomy 28:55 in Hebrew with its dependency tree, Targu --- [Mova](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) · [this page in HTML](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/DEU.28.55/) [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 28](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/DEU/28/) / 28:55 # Deuteronomy 28:55 דְּבָרִים **Who acts:** LORD, enemy · **What happens:** not give, eat, have, leave, straiten · **To what, where:** any, children, nothing, siege, LORD, thee This is Deuteronomy 28:55 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, enemy — and what happens in the verse to any, children, nothing, siege, LORD, thee, 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. מִתֵּ֣ת ׀ לְאַחַ֣ד מֵהֶ֗ם מִבְּשַׂ֤ר בָּנָיו֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר יֹאכֵ֔ל מִבְּלִ֥י הִשְׁאִֽיר־ל֖וֹ כֹּ֑ל בְּמָצוֹר֙ וּבְמָצ֔וֹק אֲשֶׁ֨ר יָצִ֥יק לְךָ֛ אֹיִבְךָ֖ בְּכָל־שְׁעָרֶֽיךָ׃ [so that he will not give to any of them of the flesh of his children whom he shall eat, because he hath nothing left him; in the siege and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemy shall straiten thee in all thy gates.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/DEU.792/) ## 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:773 # text = מִתֵּ֣ת ׀ לְאַחַ֣ד מֵהֶ֗ם מִבְּשַׂ֤ר בָּנָיו֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר יֹאכֵ֔ל מִבְּלִ֥י הִשְׁאִֽיר־ל֖וֹ כֹּ֑ל בְּמָצוֹר֙ וּבְמָצ֔וֹק אֲשֶׁ֨ר יָצִ֥יק לְךָ֛ אֹיִבְךָ֖ בְּכָל־שְׁעָרֶֽיךָ׃ # verse = DEU.28.55 1-2 מִתֵּ֣ת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 2 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=DEU_28:55!1|MId=o050280550011|Strong=4480 2 תֵּ֣ת נָתַן VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 0 root _ Gloss=giving|Ref=DEU_28:55!1|MId=o050280550012|Strong=5414|Frame=A0:050280540012;|Type=infinitive_construct 3 ׀ ׀ PUNCT _ _ 2 punct _ Ref=DEU_28:55!1 4-5 לְאַחַ֣ד _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DEU_28:55!2|MId=o050280550021|Strong=3807a 5 אַחַ֣ד אֶחָד NUM _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=one|Ref=DEU_28:55!2|MId=o050280550022|Strong=0259|Type=cardinal_number 6-7 מֵהֶ֗ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 מֵ מִן ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=of|Ref=DEU_28:55!3|MId=o050280550031|Strong=4480 7 הֶ֗ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 5 nmod _ Gloss=them|Ref=DEU_28:55!3|MId=o050280550032|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 8-9 מִבְּשַׂ֤ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=any|Ref=DEU_28:55!4|MId=o050280550041|Strong=4480 9 בְּשַׂ֤ר בָּשָׂר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=of.the.flesh|Ref=DEU_28:55!4|MId=o050280550042|Strong=1320 10-11 בָּנָיו֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 בָּנָי בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 9 compound:smixut _ Gloss=his.children|Ref=DEU_28:55!5|MId=o050280550051|Strong=1121 11 ו֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 10 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=DEU_28:55!5|MId=o050280550052|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 12 אֲשֶׁ֣ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 13 mark _ Gloss=whom|Ref=DEU_28:55!6|MId=o050280550061|Strong=0834|Type=relative 13 יֹאכֵ֔ל אָכַל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 9 acl:relcl _ Gloss=he.will.eat|Ref=DEU_28:55!7|MId=o050280550071|Strong=0398|Frame=A0:050280540012;A1:050280550042;|Type=yiqtol 14-15 מִבְּלִ֥י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=DEU_28:55!8|MId=o050280550081|Strong=4480 15 בְּלִ֥י בְּלִי ADV _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 16 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=DEU_28:55!8|MId=o050280550082|Strong=1097 16 הִשְׁאִֽיר־ שָׁאַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 parataxis _ Gloss=left|Ref=DEU_28:55!9|MId=o050280550091|Strong=7604|Frame=AA:050280540012;A0:050280550111;|Type=qatal|SpaceAfter=No 17-18 ל֖וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 ל לְ ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DEU_28:55!10|MId=o050280550101|Strong=3807a 18 ֖וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 16 obl _ Gloss=him|Ref=DEU_28:55!10|MId=o050280550102|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 19 כֹּ֑ל כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 16 obj _ Gloss=anything|Ref=DEU_28:55!11|MId=o050280550111|Strong=3605 20-21 בְּמָצוֹר֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 21 case _ Gloss=in.[the]|Ref=DEU_28:55!12|MId=o050280550121|Strong=0871a 21 מָצוֹר֙ מָצוֹר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 16 obl _ Gloss=siege|Ref=DEU_28:55!12|MId=o050280550122|Strong=4692 22-24 וּבְמָצ֔וֹק _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 24 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_28:55!13|MId=o050280550131|Strong=2050b 23 בְ בְּ ADP _ _ 24 case _ Gloss=in.[the]|Ref=DEU_28:55!13|MId=o050280550132|Strong=0871a 24 מָצ֔וֹק מָצוֹק NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 21 conj _ Gloss=distress|Ref=DEU_28:55!13|MId=o050280550133|Strong=4689 25 אֲשֶׁ֨ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 26 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=DEU_28:55!14|MId=o050280550141|Strong=0834|Type=relative 26 יָצִ֥יק צוּק VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 24 acl:relcl _ Gloss=he.will.bring.distress|Ref=DEU_28:55!15|MId=o050280550151|Strong=6693|Frame=AA:050280550171;A0:050280550133;|Type=yiqtol 27-28 לְךָ֛ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 ל לְ ADP _ _ 28 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DEU_28:55!16|MId=o050280550161|Strong=3807a 28 ְךָ֛ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 26 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=DEU_28:55!16|MId=o050280550162|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 29-30 אֹיִבְךָ֖ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 29 אֹיִב אָיַב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 26 nsubj _ Gloss=enemy|Ref=DEU_28:55!17|MId=o050280550171|Strong=0341|Type=participle_active 30 ְךָ֖ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 29 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=DEU_28:55!17|MId=o050280550172|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 31-32 בְּכָל־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 31 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 32 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=DEU_28:55!18|MId=o050280550181|Strong=0871a 32 כָל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 26 obl _ Gloss=all|Ref=DEU_28:55!18|MId=o050280550182|Strong=3605 33-34 שְׁעָרֶֽיךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 33 שְׁעָרֶֽי שַׁעַר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 32 compound:smixut _ Gloss=gates|Ref=DEU_28:55!19|MId=o050280550191|Strong=8179 34 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 33 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=DEU_28:55!19|MId=o050280550192|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 35 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 34 punct _ Ref=DEU_28:55!19 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
