Exodus 12:17 in Hebrew with its dependency tree, Targum Onkelos, --- [Mova](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) · [this page in HTML](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/EXO.12.17/) [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 12](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/EXO/12/) / 12:17 # Exodus 12:17 שְׁמוֹת **Who acts:** ye, I · **What happens:** observe, bring · **To what, where:** feast, hosts, land This is Exodus 12:17 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 feast, hosts, land, 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. וּשְׁמַרְתֶּם֮ אֶת־הַמַּצּוֹת֒ כִּ֗י בְּעֶ֙צֶם֙ הַיּ֣וֹם הַזֶּ֔ה הוֹצֵ֥אתִי אֶת־צִבְאוֹתֵיכֶ֖ם מֵאֶ֣רֶץ מִצְרָ֑יִם וּשְׁמַרְתֶּ֞ם אֶת־הַיּ֥וֹם הַזֶּ֛ה לְדֹרֹתֵיכֶ֖ם חֻקַּ֥ת עוֹלָֽם׃ [And ye shall observe the feast of unleavened bread; for in this selfsame day have I brought your hosts out of the land of Egypt; therefore shall ye observe this day throughout your generations by an ordinance for ever.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/EXO.327/) ## 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:300 # text = וּשְׁמַרְתֶּם֮ אֶת־הַמַּצּוֹת֒ כִּ֗י בְּעֶ֙צֶם֙ הַיּ֣וֹם הַזֶּ֔ה הוֹצֵ֥אתִי אֶת־צִבְאוֹתֵיכֶ֖ם מֵאֶ֣רֶץ מִצְרָ֑יִם וּשְׁמַרְתֶּ֞ם אֶת־הַיּ֥וֹם הַזֶּ֛ה לְדֹרֹתֵיכֶ֖ם חֻקַּ֥ת עוֹלָֽם׃ # verse = EXO.12.17 1-2 וּשְׁמַרְתֶּם֮ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_12:17!1|MId=o020120170011|Strong=2050b 2 שְׁמַרְתֶּם֮ שָׁמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=you.will.keep|Ref=EXO_12:17!1|MId=o020120170012|Strong=8104|Frame=A0:020120150182;A1:020120170032;|Type=weqatal 3 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=EXO_12:17!2|MId=o020120170021|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 4-5 הַמַּצּוֹת֒ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 5 det _ Gloss=the.unleavened|Ref=EXO_12:17!3|MId=o020120170031|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 5 מַּצּוֹת֒ מַצָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 2 obj _ Gloss=bread(s)|Ref=EXO_12:17!3|MId=o020120170032|Strong=4682 6 כִּ֗י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 13 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=EXO_12:17!4|MId=o020120170041|Strong=3588 7-8 בְּעֶ֙צֶם֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=EXO_12:17!5|MId=o020120170051|Strong=0871a 8 עֶ֙צֶם֙ עֶצֶם NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 13 obl _ Gloss=the.substance|Ref=EXO_12:17!5|MId=o020120170052|Strong=6106 9-10 הַיּ֣וֹם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 10 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=EXO_12:17!6|MId=o020120170061|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 10 יּ֣וֹם יוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.day|Ref=EXO_12:17!6|MId=o020120170062|Strong=3117 11-12 הַזֶּ֔ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 12 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=EXO_12:17!7|MId=o020120170071|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 12 זֶּ֔ה זֶה DET _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|PronType=Dem 10 det _ Gloss=this|Ref=EXO_12:17!7|MId=o020120170072|Strong=2088|Type=demonstrative 13 הוֹצֵ֥אתִי יָצָא VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=1 2 advcl _ Gloss=I.brought.out|Ref=EXO_12:17!8|MId=o020120170081|Strong=3318|Frame=AA:020120140092;A0:020120170101;|Type=qatal 14 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=EXO_12:17!9|MId=o020120170091|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 15-16 צִבְאוֹתֵיכֶ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 צִבְאוֹתֵי צָבָא NOUN _ Number=Plur 13 obj _ Gloss=hosts|Ref=EXO_12:17!10|MId=o020120170101|Strong=6635 16 כֶ֖ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 15 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=EXO_12:17!10|MId=o020120170102|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 17-18 מֵאֶ֣רֶץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 מֵ מִן ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=EXO_12:17!11|MId=o020120170111|Strong=4480 18 אֶ֣רֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 13 obl _ Gloss=the.land|Ref=EXO_12:17!11|MId=o020120170112|Strong=0776 19 מִצְרָ֑יִם מִצְרַיִם PROPN _ _ 18 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Egypt|Ref=EXO_12:17!12|MId=o020120170121|Strong=4714 20-21 וּשְׁמַרְתֶּ֞ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 21 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_12:17!13|MId=o020120170131|Strong=2050b 21 שְׁמַרְתֶּ֞ם שָׁמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 2 conj _ Gloss=you.will.keep|Ref=EXO_12:17!13|MId=o020120170132|Strong=8104|Frame=A0:020120150182;A1:020120170152;|Type=weqatal 22 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 24 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=EXO_12:17!14|MId=o020120170141|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 23-24 הַיּ֥וֹם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 24 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EXO_12:17!15|MId=o020120170151|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 24 יּ֥וֹם יוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 21 obj _ Gloss=day|Ref=EXO_12:17!15|MId=o020120170152|Strong=3117 25-26 הַזֶּ֛ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 26 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=EXO_12:17!16|MId=o020120170161|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 26 זֶּ֛ה זֶה DET _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|PronType=Dem 24 det _ Gloss=this|Ref=EXO_12:17!16|MId=o020120170162|Strong=2088|Type=demonstrative 27-29 לְדֹרֹתֵיכֶ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 28 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EXO_12:17!17|MId=o020120170171|Strong=3807a 28 דֹרֹתֵי דּוֹר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 21 obl _ Gloss=generations|Ref=EXO_12:17!17|MId=o020120170172|Strong=1755 29 כֶ֖ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 28 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=EXO_12:17!17|MId=o020120170173|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 30 חֻקַּ֥ת חֻקָּה NOUN _ Number=Sing 21 xcomp _ Gloss=a.statute|Ref=EXO_12:17!18|MId=o020120170181|Strong=2708 31 עוֹלָֽם עוֹלָם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 30 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.perpetuity|Ref=EXO_12:17!19|MId=o020120170191|Strong=5769|SpaceAfter=No 32 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 31 punct _ Ref=EXO_12:17!19 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
