# Job 42:7 אִיּוֹב

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** it, LORD, ye, thing · **What happens:** be, speak, say, kindle, not speak · **To what, where:** words, Eliphaz, wrath, thing · **Speech:** someone speaks in this verse

<!-- .vabout -->
This is Job 42:7 from Mova's open Bible corpus, the Tanakh in three languages (Ketuvim — the Writings). 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 — it, LORD, ye, thing — and what happens in the verse to words, Eliphaz, wrath, thing, 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.

[And it was so, that after the LORD had spoken these words unto Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite: 'My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends; for ye have not spoken of Me the thing that is right, as My servant Job hath.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/JOB.1165/)

## The tree {#tree}

<!-- .note -->
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.
