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 — heart, food — and what happens in the verse to night, food, 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 31 chapters of Proverbs on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וַתָּ֤קָם ׀ בְּע֬וֹד לַ֗יְלָה וַתִּתֵּ֣ן טֶ֣רֶף לְבֵיתָ֑הּ וְ֝חֹ֗ק לְנַעֲרֹתֶֽיהָ׃ [She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth food to her household, and a portion to her maidens.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/PRO.912/) ## 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:PRO:898 # text = וַתָּ֤קָם ׀ בְּע֬וֹד לַ֗יְלָה וַתִּתֵּ֣ן טֶ֣רֶף לְבֵיתָ֑הּ וְ֝חֹ֗ק לְנַעֲרֹתֶֽיהָ׃ # verse = PRO.31.15 1-2 וַתָּ֤קָם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=PRO_31:15!1|MId=o200310150011|Strong=2050b 2 תָּ֤קָם קוּם VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=she.rose|Ref=PRO_31:15!1|MId=o200310150012|Strong=6965|Frame=A0:200310100011;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 ׀ ׀ PUNCT _ _ 2 punct _ Ref=PRO_31:15!1 4-5 בְּע֬וֹד _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=when|Ref=PRO_31:15!2|MId=o200310150021|Strong=0871a 5 ע֬וֹד עוֹד ADV _ _ 6 advmod _ Gloss=still|Ref=PRO_31:15!2|MId=o200310150022|Strong=5750 6 לַ֗יְלָה לַיְלָה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=night|Ref=PRO_31:15!3|MId=o200310150031|Strong=3915 7-8 וַתִּתֵּ֣ן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 8 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=PRO_31:15!4|MId=o200310150041|Strong=2050b 8 תִּתֵּ֣ן נָתַן VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=she.gave|Ref=PRO_31:15!4|MId=o200310150042|Strong=5414|Frame=A0:200310100011;A1:200310150051;|Type=wayyiqtol 9 טֶ֣רֶף טֶרֶף NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 obj _ Gloss=food|Ref=PRO_31:15!5|MId=o200310150051|Strong=2964 10-12 לְבֵיתָ֑הּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=PRO_31:15!6|MId=o200310150061|Strong=3807a 11 בֵית בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 obl _ Gloss=household|Ref=PRO_31:15!6|MId=o200310150062|Strong=1004 12 ָ֑הּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 11 nmod:poss _ Gloss=her|Ref=PRO_31:15!6|MId=o200310150063|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 13-14 וְ֝חֹ֗ק _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 וְ֝ וְ CCONJ _ _ 14 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=PRO_31:15!7|MId=o200310150071|Strong=2050b 14 חֹ֗ק חֹק NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 conj _ Gloss=an.allotted.portion|Ref=PRO_31:15!7|MId=o200310150072|Strong=2706 15-17 לְנַעֲרֹתֶֽיהָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=PRO_31:15!8|MId=o200310150081|Strong=3807a 16 נַעֲרֹתֶֽי נַעֲרָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 14 obl _ Gloss=her.female|Ref=PRO_31:15!8|MId=o200310150082|Strong=5291 17 הָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 16 nmod:poss _ Gloss=servants|Ref=PRO_31:15!8|MId=o200310150083|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 18 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 17 punct _ Ref=PRO_31:15!8 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: narrate - voice: narrator - speech: narration - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | תָּקָם *she rose* | wayyiqtol · qal | | | | | | תִּתֵּן *she gave* | wayyiqtol · qal | | טֶרֶף *food* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
