Exodus 11:7 in Hebrew with its dependency tree, Targum Onkelos, JPS 1917 and the pragma --- [Mova](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) · [this page in HTML](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/EXO.11.7/) [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/) / [Exodus](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/EXO/) / [chapter 11](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/EXO/11/) / 11:7 # Exodus 11:7 שְׁמוֹת **Who acts:** dog, ye, LORD · **What happens:** not whet, know, put · **To what, where:** tongue, difference · **Speech:** someone speaks in this verse This is Exodus 11:7 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 — dog, ye, LORD — and what happens in the verse to tongue, difference, 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 40 chapters of Exodus on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וּלְכֹ֣ל ׀ בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֗ל לֹ֤א יֶֽחֱרַץ־כֶּ֙לֶב֙ לְשֹׁנ֔וֹ לְמֵאִ֖ישׁ וְעַד־בְּהֵמָ֑ה לְמַ֙עַן֙ תֵּֽדְע֔וּן אֲשֶׁר֙ יַפְלֶ֣ה יְהוָ֔ה בֵּ֥ין מִצְרַ֖יִם וּבֵ֥ין יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃ [But against any of the children of Israel shall not a dog whet his tongue, against man or beast; that ye may know how that the LORD doth put a difference between the Egyptians and Israel.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/EXO.307/) ## 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:EXO:280 # text = וּלְכֹ֣ל ׀ בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֗ל לֹ֤א יֶֽחֱרַץ־כֶּ֙לֶב֙ לְשֹׁנ֔וֹ לְמֵאִ֖ישׁ וְעַד־בְּהֵמָ֑ה לְמַ֙עַן֙ תֵּֽדְע֔וּן אֲשֶׁר֙ יַפְלֶ֣ה יְהוָ֔ה בֵּ֥ין מִצְרַ֖יִם וּבֵ֥ין יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃ # verse = EXO.11.7 1-3 וּלְכֹ֣ל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 8 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_11:7!1|MId=o020110070011|Strong=2050b 2 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 3 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EXO_11:7!1|MId=o020110070012|Strong=3807a 3 כֹ֣ל כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 obl _ Gloss=all|Ref=EXO_11:7!1|MId=o020110070013|Strong=3605 4 ׀ ׀ PUNCT _ _ 3 punct _ Ref=EXO_11:7!1 5 בְּנֵ֣י בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 3 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.people|Ref=EXO_11:7!2|MId=o020110070021|Strong=1121 6 יִשְׂרָאֵ֗ל יִשְׂרָאֵל PROPN _ _ 5 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Israel|Ref=EXO_11:7!3|MId=o020110070031|Strong=3478 7 לֹ֤א לֹא ADV _ _ 8 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=EXO_11:7!4|MId=o020110070041|Strong=3808|Type=negative 8 יֶֽחֱרַץ־ חָרַץ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=it.will.sharpen|Ref=EXO_11:7!5|MId=o020110070051|Strong=2782|Frame=A0:020110070061;A1:020110070071;|Type=yiqtol|SpaceAfter=No 9 כֶּ֙לֶב֙ כֶּלֶב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 nsubj _ Gloss=a.dog|Ref=EXO_11:7!6|MId=o020110070061|Strong=3611 10-11 לְשֹׁנ֔וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 לְשֹׁנ לָשׁוֹן NOUN _ Number=Sing 8 obj _ Gloss=tongue|Ref=EXO_11:7!7|MId=o020110070071|Strong=3956 11 ֔וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 10 nmod:poss _ Gloss=its|Ref=EXO_11:7!7|MId=o020110070072|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 12-14 לְמֵאִ֖ישׁ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EXO_11:7!8|MId=o020110070081|Strong=3807a 13 מֵ מִן ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=EXO_11:7!8|MId=o020110070082|Strong=4480 14 אִ֖ישׁ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 obl _ Gloss=a.human|Ref=EXO_11:7!8|MId=o020110070083|Strong=0376 15-16 וְעַד־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 17 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_11:7!9|MId=o020110070091|Strong=2050b 16 עַד־ עַד ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=unto|Ref=EXO_11:7!9|MId=o020110070092|Strong=5704 17 בְּהֵמָ֑ה בְּהֵמָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 14 conj _ Gloss=livestock|Ref=EXO_11:7!10|MId=o020110070101|Strong=0929 18 לְמַ֙עַן֙ לְמַעַן SCONJ _ _ 19 mark _ Gloss=so.that|Ref=EXO_11:7!11|MId=o020110070111|Strong=4616 19-20 תֵּֽדְע֔וּן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 תֵּֽדְע֔וּ יָדַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 8 parataxis _ Gloss=you|Ref=EXO_11:7!12|MId=o020110070121|Strong=3045|Frame=A0:020110050071;020110030161;020110030192;A1:020110070141;|Type=yiqtol 20 ן נ X _ _ 19 nmod _ Gloss=may.know|Ref=EXO_11:7!12|MId=o020110070122|Strong=4993b|Type=paragogic_nun 21 אֲשֶׁר֙ אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 22 mark _ Gloss=(cmp)|Ref=EXO_11:7!13|MId=o020110070131|Strong=0834|Type=relative 22 יַפְלֶ֣ה פָּלָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 19 acl:relcl _ Gloss=he.distinguishes|Ref=EXO_11:7!14|MId=o020110070141|Strong=6395|Frame=A0:020110070151;|Type=yiqtol 23 יְהוָ֔ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 22 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=EXO_11:7!15|MId=o020110070151|Strong=3068 24 בֵּ֥ין בֵּין ADP _ _ 25 case _ Gloss=between|Ref=EXO_11:7!16|MId=o020110070161|Strong=0996 25 מִצְרַ֖יִם מִצְרַיִם PROPN _ _ 22 obl _ Gloss=Egypt|Ref=EXO_11:7!17|MId=o020110070171|Strong=4714 26-27 וּבֵ֥ין _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 28 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_11:7!18|MId=o020110070181|Strong=2050b 27 בֵ֥ין בֵּין ADP _ _ 28 case _ Gloss=between|Ref=EXO_11:7!18|MId=o020110070182|Strong=0996 28 יִשְׂרָאֵֽל יִשְׂרָאֵל PROPN _ _ 25 conj _ Gloss=Israel|Ref=EXO_11:7!19|MId=o020110070191|Strong=3478|SpaceAfter=No 29 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 28 punct _ Ref=EXO_11:7!19 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: yes | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | **not** יֶֽחֱרַץ־ *it will sharpen* | yiqtol · qal | כֶּלֶב *a dog* | לְשֹׁנ *tongue* | | | | תֵּֽדְעוּ *you* | yiqtol · qal | | יַפְלֶה *he distinguishes* | | | | יַפְלֶה *he distinguishes* | yiqtol · hiphil | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
