# Deuteronomy 29:5 דְּבָרִים

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** Ye, I · **What happens:** not eat, drink, know, be · **To what, where:** bread, wine, LORD · **Speech:** someone speaks in this verse

<!-- .vabout -->
This is Deuteronomy 29:5 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 — Ye, I — and what happens in the verse to bread, wine, LORD, 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: yes

<!-- .fr -->
| verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| **not** אֲכַלְתֶּם *you ate* | qatal · qal |  | לֶחֶם *bread* |  |  |
| **not** שְׁתִיתֶם *you drank* | qatal · qal |  | יַיִן *wine* + שֵׁכָר *strong drink* |  |  |
| תֵּֽדְעוּ *you may know* | yiqtol · qal |  | יְהוָה *\[am\] Yahweh* |  |  |

<!-- .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}

<!-- .varc dir=rtl lang=arc -->
לַחְמָא לָא אֲכַלְתּוּן וַחֲמַר חֲדַת וְעַתִּיק לָא שְׁתֵיתוּן בְּדִיל דְתִדְעוּן אֲרֵי אֲנָא יְיָ אֶלָהֲכוֹן

<!-- .note -->
The Aramaic translation read beside the Hebrew. Text only: Mova has no Aramaic parser yet.

## English, JPS 1917 {#english}

Each sentence on its own page, with its tree and pragmatics. A sentence that runs on into the next verse is listed under the verse it begins in.
