# Deuteronomy 28:7 דְּבָרִים

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** LORD, enemies · **What happens:** cause, rise up, smite, come out, flee · **To what, where:** enemies, thee, one way, seven ways

<!-- .vabout -->
This is Deuteronomy 28:7 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, enemies — and what happens in the verse to enemies, thee, one way, seven ways, 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.

## The tree {#tree}

<!-- .note -->
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.

## Pragmatics {#pragmatics}

<!-- sa -->
- form: statement
- act: assert
- voice: character
- speech: inside a quote begun earlier
- negation: no

<!-- .fr -->
| verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |

<!-- .note -->
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 {#onkelos}

יִתֵּן יְיָ יָת בַּעֲלֵי דְבָבָךְ דְקָיְמִין עֲלָךְ תְּבִירִין קֳדָמָךְ בְּאָרְחָא חַדָא יִפְּקוּן לְוָתָךְ וּבְשִׁבְעָא אָרְחָן יֵעִרְקוּן מִקֳדָמָךְ

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