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 — you, name, ye, God, LORD — and what happens in the verse to praises, name, God, LORD, 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 150 chapters of Psalms on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. שִׁ֤ירוּ ׀ לֵֽאלֹהִים֮ זַמְּר֪וּ שְׁ֫מ֥וֹ סֹ֡לּוּ לָרֹכֵ֣ב בָּ֭עֲרָבוֹת בְּיָ֥הּ שְׁמ֗וֹ וְעִלְז֥וּ לְפָנָֽיו׃ [Sing unto God, sing praises to His name; extol Him that rideth upon the skies, whose name is the LORD; and exult ye before Him.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/PSA.1094/) ## 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:PSA:1013 # text = שִׁ֤ירוּ ׀ לֵֽאלֹהִים֮ זַמְּר֪וּ שְׁ֫מ֥וֹ סֹ֡לּוּ לָרֹכֵ֣ב בָּ֭עֲרָבוֹת בְּיָ֥הּ שְׁמ֗וֹ וְעִלְז֥וּ לְפָנָֽיו׃ # verse = PSA.68.5 1 שִׁ֤ירוּ שִׁיר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=sing|Ref=PSA_68:5!1|MId=o190680050011|Strong=7891|Frame=A0:190680040012;|Type=imperative 2 ׀ ׀ PUNCT _ _ 1 punct _ Ref=PSA_68:5!1 3-4 לֵֽאלֹהִים֮ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 לֵֽ לְ ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=PSA_68:5!2|MId=o190680050021|Strong=3807a 4 אלֹהִים֮ אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 1 obl _ Gloss=God|Ref=PSA_68:5!2|MId=o190680050022|Strong=0430 5 זַמְּר֪וּ זָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Plur|Person=2 1 parataxis _ Gloss=sing.praises.to|Ref=PSA_68:5!3|MId=o190680050031|Strong=2167|Frame=A0:190680040012;A1:190680050041;|Type=imperative 6-7 שְׁ֫מ֥וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 שְׁ֫מ שֵׁם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 5 obj _ Gloss=name|Ref=PSA_68:5!4|MId=o190680050041|Strong=8034 7 ֥וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 6 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=PSA_68:5!4|MId=o190680050042|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 8 סֹ֡לּוּ סָלַל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 1 parataxis _ Gloss=lift.up|Ref=PSA_68:5!5|MId=o190680050051|Strong=5549|Frame=A0:190680040012;|Type=imperative 9-11 לָרֹכֵ֣ב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 לָ לְ ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=PSA_68:5!6|MId=o190680050061|Strong=3807a 10 ה הַ SCONJ _ _ 11 mark _ Gloss=the|Ref=PSA_68:5!6|MId=o190680050061ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 11 רֹכֵ֣ב רָכַב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 8 advcl _ Gloss=rider|Ref=PSA_68:5!6|MId=o190680050062|Strong=7392|Frame=A0:190680050022;|Type=participle_active 12-14 בָּ֭עֲרָבוֹת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 בָּ֭ בְּ ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=PSA_68:5!7|MId=o190680050071|Strong=0871a 13 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 14 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=PSA_68:5!7|MId=o190680050071ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 14 עֲרָבוֹת עֲרָבָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 11 obl _ Gloss=clouds|Ref=PSA_68:5!7|MId=o190680050072|Strong=6160 15-16 בְּיָ֥הּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=[is].(in)|Ref=PSA_68:5!8|MId=o190680050081|Strong=0871a 16 יָ֥הּ יָהּ PROPN _ _ 1 parataxis _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=PSA_68:5!8|MId=o190680050082|Strong=3050 17-18 שְׁמ֗וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 שְׁמ שֵׁם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 16 nsubj _ Gloss=name|Ref=PSA_68:5!9|MId=o190680050091|Strong=8034 18 ֗וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 17 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=PSA_68:5!9|MId=o190680050092|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 19-20 וְעִלְז֥וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 20 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=PSA_68:5!10|MId=o190680050101|Strong=2050b 20 עִלְז֥וּ עָלַז VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 1 conj _ Gloss=exult|Ref=PSA_68:5!10|MId=o190680050102|Strong=5937|Frame=A0:190680040012;|Type=imperative 21-23 לְפָנָֽיו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=before|Ref=PSA_68:5!11|MId=o190680050111|Strong=3807a 22 פָנָֽי פָּנֶה NOUN _ Number=Plur 20 obl _ Gloss=|Ref=PSA_68:5!11|MId=o190680050112|Strong=6440 23 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 22 nmod:poss _ Gloss=him|Ref=PSA_68:5!11|MId=o190680050113|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 24 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 23 punct _ Ref=PSA_68:5!11 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: command - act: request - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | שִׁירוּ *sing* | imperative · qal | | | | | | זַמְּרוּ *sing praises to* | imperative · piel | | שְׁמ *name* | | | | סֹלּוּ *lift up* | imperative · qal | | | | | | רֹכֵב *rider* | participle active · qal | אלֹהִים *God* | | | | | עִלְזוּ *exult* | imperative · qal | | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
