Leviticus 2:13 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/LEV.2.13/) [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/) / [Leviticus](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/LEV/) / [chapter 2](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/LEV/2/) / 2:13 # Leviticus 2:13 וַיִּקְרָא **Who acts:** thou, God, thy · **What happens:** season, suffer, lack, offer, covenant · **To what, where:** meal offering, salt, thine This is Leviticus 2:13 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 — thou, God, thy — and what happens in the verse to meal offering, salt, thine, 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 27 chapters of Leviticus on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וְכָל־קָרְבַּ֣ן מִנְחָתְךָ֮ בַּמֶּ֣לַח תִּמְלָח֒ וְלֹ֣א תַשְׁבִּ֗ית מֶ֚לַח בְּרִ֣ית אֱלֹהֶ֔יךָ מֵעַ֖ל מִנְחָתֶ֑ךָ עַ֥ל כָּל־קָרְבָּנְךָ֖ תַּקְרִ֥יב מֶֽלַח׃ס [And every meal-offering of thine shalt thou season with salt; neither shalt thou suffer the salt of the covenant of thy God to be lacking from thy meal-offering; with all thy offerings thou shalt offer salt.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/LEV.29/) ## 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:LEV:29 # text = וְכָל־קָרְבַּ֣ן מִנְחָתְךָ֮ בַּמֶּ֣לַח תִּמְלָח֒ וְלֹ֣א תַשְׁבִּ֗ית מֶ֚לַח בְּרִ֣ית אֱלֹהֶ֔יךָ מֵעַ֖ל מִנְחָתֶ֑ךָ עַ֥ל כָּל־קָרְבָּנְךָ֖ תַּקְרִ֥יב מֶֽלַח׃ס # verse = LEV.2.13 1-2 וְכָל־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 9 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_2:13!1|MId=o030020130011|Strong=2050b 2 כָל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 obj _ Gloss=every|Ref=LEV_2:13!1|MId=o030020130012|Strong=3605 3 קָרְבַּ֣ן קׇרְבָּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 compound:smixut _ Gloss=present|Ref=LEV_2:13!2|MId=o030020130021|Strong=7133 4-5 מִנְחָתְךָ֮ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 מִנְחָת מִנְחָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 3 compound:smixut _ Gloss=your.grain.offering|Ref=LEV_2:13!3|MId=o030020130031|Strong=4503 5 ְךָ֮ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 4 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=LEV_2:13!3|MId=o030020130032|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 6-8 בַּמֶּ֣לַח _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=LEV_2:13!4|MId=o030020130041|Strong=0871a 7 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 8 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=LEV_2:13!4|MId=o030020130041ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 8 מֶּ֣לַח מֶלַח NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 obl _ Gloss=salt|Ref=LEV_2:13!4|MId=o030020130042|Strong=4417 9 תִּמְלָח֒ מָלַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=you.will.salt|Ref=LEV_2:13!5|MId=o030020130051|Strong=4414a|Frame=A0:030010020031;A1:030020130021;|Type=yiqtol 10-11 וְלֹ֣א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 12 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_2:13!6|MId=o030020130061|Strong=2050b 11 לֹ֣א לֹא ADV _ _ 12 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=LEV_2:13!6|MId=o030020130062|Strong=3808|Type=negative 12 תַשְׁבִּ֗ית שָׁבַת VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=2 9 conj _ Gloss=you.must.cause.to.cease|Ref=LEV_2:13!7|MId=o030020130071|Strong=7673|Frame=AA:030010020031;A0:030020130081;|Type=yiqtol 13 מֶ֚לַח מֶלַח NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 12 obj _ Gloss=the.salt|Ref=LEV_2:13!8|MId=o030020130081|Strong=4417 14 בְּרִ֣ית בְּרִית NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 13 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.the.covenant|Ref=LEV_2:13!9|MId=o030020130091|Strong=1285 15-16 אֱלֹהֶ֔יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 אֱלֹהֶ֔י אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 14 compound:smixut _ Gloss=your.God|Ref=LEV_2:13!10|MId=o030020130101|Strong=0430 16 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 15 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=LEV_2:13!10|MId=o030020130102|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 17-18 מֵעַ֖ל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 מֵ מִן ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=LEV_2:13!11|MId=o030020130111|Strong=4480 18 עַ֖ל עַל ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=LEV_2:13!11|MId=o030020130112|Strong=5921 19-20 מִנְחָתֶ֑ךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 מִנְחָת מִנְחָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 12 obl _ Gloss=offering|Ref=LEV_2:13!12|MId=o030020130121|Strong=4503 20 ֶ֑ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 19 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your.grain|Ref=LEV_2:13!12|MId=o030020130122|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 21 עַ֥ל עַל ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=LEV_2:13!13|MId=o030020130131|Strong=5921 22 כָּל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 25 obl _ Gloss=every|Ref=LEV_2:13!14|MId=o030020130141|Strong=3605|SpaceAfter=No 23-24 קָרְבָּנְךָ֖ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 קָרְבָּנ קׇרְבָּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 22 compound:smixut _ Gloss=present|Ref=LEV_2:13!15|MId=o030020130151|Strong=7133 24 ְךָ֖ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 23 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=LEV_2:13!15|MId=o030020130152|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 25 תַּקְרִ֥יב קָרַב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=2 9 parataxis _ Gloss=you.will.present|Ref=LEV_2:13!16|MId=o030020130161|Strong=7126|Frame=AA:030010020031;A0:030020130171;|Type=yiqtol 26 מֶֽלַח מֶלַח NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 25 obj _ Gloss=salt|Ref=LEV_2:13!17|MId=o030020130171|Strong=4417|SpaceAfter=No 27 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=LEV_2:13!17|SpaceAfter=No 28 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=LEV_2:13!17 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: request - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: yes - indirect: yes | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | תִּמְלָח *you will salt* | yiqtol · qal | | קָרְבַּן *present* | | | | **not** תַשְׁבִּית *you must cause to cease* | yiqtol · hiphil | מֶלַח *the salt* | | | | | תַּקְרִיב *you will present* | yiqtol · hiphil | מֶֽלַח *salt* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
