Genesis 27:19 in Hebrew with its dependency tree, Targum Onkelos, JPS 1917 and the pragmatics --- [Mova](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) · [this page in HTML](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/GEN.27.19/) [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/) / [Genesis](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/GEN/) / [chapter 27](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/GEN/27/) / 27:19 # Genesis 27:19 בְּרֵאשִׁית **Who acts:** Jacob, I, thou, you, soul · **What happens:** say, be, do, accord, bid, arise · **To what, where:** Esau, me, thee · **Speech:** someone speaks in this verse This is Genesis 27:19 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 — Jacob, I, thou, you, soul — and what happens in the verse to Esau, me, 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 50 chapters of Genesis on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וַיֹּ֨אמֶר יַעֲקֹ֜ב אֶל־אָבִ֗יו אָנֹכִי֙ עֵשָׂ֣ו בְּכֹרֶ֔ךָ עָשִׂ֕יתִי כַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר דִּבַּ֖רְתָּ אֵלָ֑י קֽוּם־נָ֣א שְׁבָ֗ה וְאָכְלָה֙ מִצֵּידִ֔י בַּעֲב֖וּר תְּבָרֲכַ֥נִּי נַפְשֶֽׁךָ׃ [And Jacob said unto his father: 'I am Esau thy first-born; I have done according as thou badest me.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.792/) [Arise, I pray thee, sit and eat of my venison, that thy soul may bless me.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.793/) ## 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:GEN:746 # text = וַיֹּ֨אמֶר יַעֲקֹ֜ב אֶל־אָבִ֗יו אָנֹכִי֙ עֵשָׂ֣ו בְּכֹרֶ֔ךָ עָשִׂ֕יתִי כַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר דִּבַּ֖רְתָּ אֵלָ֑י קֽוּם־נָ֣א שְׁבָ֗ה וְאָכְלָה֙ מִצֵּידִ֔י בַּעֲב֖וּר תְּבָרֲכַ֥נִּי נַפְשֶֽׁךָ׃ # verse = GEN.27.19 1-2 וַיֹּ֨אמֶר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_27:19!1|MId=o010270190011|Strong=2050b 2 יֹּ֨אמֶר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.said|Ref=GEN_27:19!1|MId=o010270190012|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:010270190021;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 יַעֲקֹ֜ב יַעֲקֹב PROPN _ _ 2 nsubj _ Gloss=Jacob|Ref=GEN_27:19!2|MId=o010270190021|Strong=3290 4 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=GEN_27:19!3|MId=o010270190031|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 5-6 אָבִ֗יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 אָבִ֗י אָב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=father|Ref=GEN_27:19!4|MId=o010270190041|Strong=0001 6 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 5 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=GEN_27:19!4|MId=o010270190042|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 7 אָנֹכִי֙ אָנֹכִי PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 8 nsubj _ Gloss=I|Ref=GEN_27:19!5|MId=o010270190051|Strong=0595|Type=personal 8 עֵשָׂ֣ו עֵשָׂו PROPN _ _ 2 ccomp _ Gloss=[am].Esau|Ref=GEN_27:19!6|MId=o010270190061|Strong=6215 9-10 בְּכֹרֶ֔ךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 בְּכֹר בְּכֹר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 appos _ Gloss=firstborn|Ref=GEN_27:19!7|MId=o010270190071|Strong=1060 10 ֶ֔ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 9 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=GEN_27:19!7|MId=o010270190072|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 11 עָשִׂ֕יתִי עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 8 parataxis _ Gloss=I.have.done|Ref=GEN_27:19!8|MId=o010270190081|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:010270190021;|Type=qatal 12-13 כַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 כַּ כְּ ADP _ _ 11 obl _ Gloss=just|Ref=GEN_27:19!9|MId=o010270190091|Strong=3509a 13 אֲשֶׁ֥ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 14 mark _ Gloss=as|Ref=GEN_27:19!9|MId=o010270190092|Strong=0834|Type=relative 14 דִּבַּ֖רְתָּ דָבַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=2 12 acl:relcl _ Gloss=you.said|Ref=GEN_27:19!10|MId=o010270190101|Strong=1696|Frame=A0:010270190041;|Type=qatal 15-16 אֵלָ֑י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 אֵל אֶל ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=GEN_27:19!11|MId=o010270190111|Strong=0413 16 ָ֑י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 14 obl _ Gloss=me|Ref=GEN_27:19!11|MId=o010270190112|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 17 קֽוּם־ קוּם VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 8 parataxis _ Gloss=arise|Ref=GEN_27:19!12|MId=o010270190121|Strong=6965|Frame=A0:010270190041;|Type=imperative|SpaceAfter=No 18 נָ֣א נָא INTJ _ _ 17 discourse _ Gloss=please|Ref=GEN_27:19!13|MId=o010270190131|Strong=4994|Type=exhortation 19-20 שְׁבָ֗ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 שְׁב יָשַׁב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 17 parataxis _ Gloss=sit|Ref=GEN_27:19!14|MId=o010270190141|Strong=3427|Frame=A0:010270190041;|Type=imperative 20 ָ֗ה ה X _ _ 19 nmod _ Gloss=|Ref=GEN_27:19!14|MId=o010270190142|Strong=1886j|Type=paragogic_he 21-23 וְאָכְלָה֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 22 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_27:19!15|MId=o010270190151|Strong=2050b 22 אָכְל אָכַל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 17 conj _ Gloss=eat|Ref=GEN_27:19!15|MId=o010270190152|Strong=0398|Frame=A0:010270190041;|Type=imperative 23 ָה֙ ה X _ _ 22 nmod _ Gloss=|Ref=GEN_27:19!15|MId=o010270190153|Strong=1886j|Type=paragogic_he 24-26 מִצֵּידִ֔י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 25 case _ Gloss=some|Ref=GEN_27:19!16|MId=o010270190161|Strong=4480 25 צֵּיד צַיִד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 22 obl _ Gloss=of|Ref=GEN_27:19!16|MId=o010270190162|Strong=6718 26 ִ֔י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 25 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my.hunted.game|Ref=GEN_27:19!16|MId=o010270190163|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 27-28 בַּעֲב֖וּר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 28 case _ Gloss=so|Ref=GEN_27:19!17|MId=o010270190171|Strong=0871a 28 עֲב֖וּר עָבוּר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 29 nmod _ Gloss=that|Ref=GEN_27:19!17|MId=o010270190172|Strong=5668 29-30 תְּבָרֲכַ֥נִּי _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 29 תְּבָרֲכ בָּרַךְ VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=3 17 parataxis _ Gloss=it|Ref=GEN_27:19!18|MId=o010270190181|Strong=1288|Frame=A1:010270190182;A0:010270190191;|Type=yiqtol 30 ַ֥נִּי הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 29 obj _ Gloss=may.bless.me|Ref=GEN_27:19!18|MId=o010270190182|Strong=5204a|Type=pronominal 31-32 נַפְשֶֽׁךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 31 נַפְשׁ נֶפֶשׁ NOUN _ Number=Sing 29 nsubj _ Gloss=self|Ref=GEN_27:19!19|MId=o010270190191|Strong=5315 32 ֶֽךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 31 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=GEN_27:19!19|MId=o010270190192|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 33 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 32 punct _ Ref=GEN_27:19!19 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
