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 — LORD — and what happens in the verse to latter end, thousand sheep, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the Aramaic of the Targum 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 42 chapters of Job on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וַֽיהוָ֗ה בֵּרַ֛ךְ אֶת־אַחֲרִ֥ית אִיּ֖וֹב מֵרֵאשִׁת֑וֹ וַֽיְהִי־ל֡וֹ אַרְבָּעָה֩ עָשָׂ֨ר אֶ֜לֶף צֹ֗אן וְשֵׁ֤שֶׁת אֲלָפִים֙ גְּמַלִּ֔ים וְאֶֽלֶף־צֶ֥מֶד בָּקָ֖ר וְאֶ֥לֶף אֲתוֹנֽוֹת׃ [So the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning; and he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she-asses.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/JOB.1170/) ## 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:JOB:1064 # text = וַֽיהוָ֗ה בֵּרַ֛ךְ אֶת־אַחֲרִ֥ית אִיּ֖וֹב מֵרֵאשִׁת֑וֹ וַֽיְהִי־ל֡וֹ אַרְבָּעָה֩ עָשָׂ֨ר אֶ֜לֶף צֹ֗אן וְשֵׁ֤שֶׁת אֲלָפִים֙ גְּמַלִּ֔ים וְאֶֽלֶף־צֶ֥מֶד בָּקָ֖ר וְאֶ֥לֶף אֲתוֹנֽוֹת׃ # verse = JOB.42.12 1-2 וַֽיהוָ֗ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַֽ וְ CCONJ _ _ 3 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JOB_42:12!1|MId=o180420120011|Strong=2050b 2 יהוָ֗ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 3 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=JOB_42:12!1|MId=o180420120012|Strong=3068 3 בֵּרַ֛ךְ בָּרַךְ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.blessed|Ref=JOB_42:12!2|MId=o180420120021|Strong=1288|Frame=A0:180420120012;A1:180420120041;|Type=qatal 4 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=JOB_42:12!3|MId=o180420120031|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 5 אַחֲרִ֥ית אַחֲרִית NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 3 obj _ Gloss=the.latter.part|Ref=JOB_42:12!4|MId=o180420120041|Strong=0319 6 אִיּ֖וֹב אִיּוֹב PROPN _ _ 5 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Job|Ref=JOB_42:12!5|MId=o180420120051|Strong=0347 7-9 מֵרֵאשִׁת֑וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 מֵ מִן ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=more|Ref=JOB_42:12!6|MId=o180420120061|Strong=4480 8 רֵאשִׁת רֵאשִׁית NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 3 obl _ Gloss=than|Ref=JOB_42:12!6|MId=o180420120062|Strong=7225 9 ֑וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 8 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his.beginning|Ref=JOB_42:12!6|MId=o180420120063|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 10-11 וַֽיְהִי־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 וַֽ וְ CCONJ _ _ 11 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JOB_42:12!7|MId=o180420120071|Strong=2050b 11 יְהִי־ הָיָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 3 conj _ Gloss=it.belonged|Ref=JOB_42:12!7|MId=o180420120072|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:180420120121;180420120151;180420120171;180420120201;|Type=wayyiqtol 12-13 ל֡וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 ל לְ ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JOB_42:12!8|MId=o180420120081|Strong=3807a 13 ֡וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 11 obl _ Gloss=him|Ref=JOB_42:12!8|MId=o180420120082|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 14 אַרְבָּעָה֩ אַרְבַּע NUM _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 17 nummod _ Gloss=four-|Ref=JOB_42:12!9|MId=o180420120091|Strong=0702|Type=cardinal_number 15 עָשָׂ֨ר עָשָׂר NUM _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 14 flat _ Gloss=teen|Ref=JOB_42:12!10|MId=o180420120101|Strong=6240|Type=cardinal_number 16 אֶ֜לֶף אֶלֶף NUM _ Number=Sing 14 flat _ Gloss=thousand|Ref=JOB_42:12!11|MId=o180420120111|Strong=0505|Type=cardinal_number 17 צֹ֗אן צֹאן NOUN _ Number=Sing 11 nsubj _ Gloss=sheep|Ref=JOB_42:12!12|MId=o180420120121|Strong=6629 18-19 וְשֵׁ֤שֶׁת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 21 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JOB_42:12!13|MId=o180420120131|Strong=2050b 19 שֵׁ֤שֶׁת שֵׁשׁ NUM _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 21 nummod _ Gloss=six|Ref=JOB_42:12!13|MId=o180420120132|Strong=8337|Type=cardinal_number 20 אֲלָפִים֙ אֶלֶף NUM _ Number=Plur 19 flat _ Gloss=thousand(s)|Ref=JOB_42:12!14|MId=o180420120141|Strong=0505|Type=cardinal_number 21 גְּמַלִּ֔ים גָּמָל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 17 conj _ Gloss=camels|Ref=JOB_42:12!15|MId=o180420120151|Strong=1581 22-23 וְאֶֽלֶף־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 24 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JOB_42:12!16|MId=o180420120161|Strong=2050b 23 אֶֽלֶף־ אֶלֶף NUM _ Number=Sing 24 nummod _ Gloss=one.thousand|Ref=JOB_42:12!16|MId=o180420120162|Strong=0505|Type=cardinal_number 24 צֶ֥מֶד צֶמֶד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 17 conj _ Gloss=pair[s]|Ref=JOB_42:12!17|MId=o180420120171|Strong=6776 25 בָּקָ֖ר בָּקָר NOUN _ Number=Sing 24 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.ox[en]|Ref=JOB_42:12!18|MId=o180420120181|Strong=1241 26-27 וְאֶ֥לֶף _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 28 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JOB_42:12!19|MId=o180420120191|Strong=2050b 27 אֶ֥לֶף אֶלֶף NUM _ Number=Sing 28 nummod _ Gloss=a.thousand|Ref=JOB_42:12!19|MId=o180420120192|Strong=0505|Type=cardinal_number 28 אֲתוֹנֽוֹת אָתוֹן NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 17 conj _ Gloss=female.donkeys|Ref=JOB_42:12!20|MId=o180420120201|Strong=0860|SpaceAfter=No 29 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 28 punct _ Ref=JOB_42:12!20 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: narrator - speech: narration - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | בֵּרַךְ *he blessed* | qatal · piel | יהוָה *Yahweh* | אַחֲרִית *the latter part* | | | | יְהִי־ *it belonged* | wayyiqtol · qal | צֹאן *sheep* + גְּמַלִּים *camels* + צֶמֶד *pair\[s\]* + אֲתוֹנֽוֹת *female donkeys* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
