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 earth, world, 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. לִפְנֵ֤י יְהוָ֨ה ׀ כִּ֬י בָ֗א כִּ֥י בָא֮ לִשְׁפֹּ֪ט הָ֫אָ֥רֶץ יִשְׁפֹּֽט־תֵּבֵ֥ל בְּצֶ֑דֶק וְ֝עַמִּ֗ים בֶּאֱמוּנָתֽוֹ׃ [Before the LORD, for He is come; for He is come to judge the earth; He will judge the world with righteousness, and the peoples in His faithfulness.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/PSA.1724/) ## 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:1600 # text = לִפְנֵ֤י יְהוָ֨ה ׀ כִּ֬י בָ֗א כִּ֥י בָא֮ לִשְׁפֹּ֪ט הָ֫אָ֥רֶץ יִשְׁפֹּֽט־תֵּבֵ֥ל בְּצֶ֑דֶק וְ֝עַמִּ֗ים בֶּאֱמוּנָתֽוֹ׃ # verse = PSA.96.13 1-2 לִפְנֵ֤י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 2 case _ Gloss=before|Ref=PSA_96:13!1|MId=o190960130011|Strong=3807a 2 פְנֵ֤י פָּנֶה NOUN _ Number=Plur 0 root _ Gloss=|Ref=PSA_96:13!1|MId=o190960130012|Strong=6440 3 יְהוָ֨ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 2 compound:smixut _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=PSA_96:13!2|MId=o190960130021|Strong=3068 4 ׀ ׀ PUNCT _ _ 3 punct _ Ref=PSA_96:13!2 5 כִּ֬י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 6 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=PSA_96:13!3|MId=o190960130031|Strong=3588 6 בָ֗א בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 advcl _ Gloss=[he.is].coming|Ref=PSA_96:13!4|MId=o190960130041|Strong=0935|Frame=A0:190960130021;|Type=qatal 7 כִּ֥י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 8 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=PSA_96:13!5|MId=o190960130051|Strong=3588 8 בָא֮ בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 advcl _ Gloss=[he.is].coming|Ref=PSA_96:13!6|MId=o190960130061|Strong=0935|Frame=A0:190960130021;|Type=qatal 9-10 לִשְׁפֹּ֪ט _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=PSA_96:13!7|MId=o190960130071|Strong=3807a 10 שְׁפֹּ֪ט שָׁפַט VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 8 advcl _ Gloss=judge|Ref=PSA_96:13!7|MId=o190960130072|Strong=8199|Frame=A0:190960130021;A1:190960130082;|Type=infinitive_construct 11-12 הָ֫אָ֥רֶץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 הָ֫ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 12 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=PSA_96:13!8|MId=o190960130081|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 12 אָ֥רֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 10 obj _ Gloss=earth|Ref=PSA_96:13!8|MId=o190960130082|Strong=0776 13 יִשְׁפֹּֽט־ שָׁפַט VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 parataxis _ Gloss=he.will.judge|Ref=PSA_96:13!9|MId=o190960130091|Strong=8199|Frame=A0:190960130021;A1:190960130101;|Type=yiqtol|SpaceAfter=No 14 תֵּבֵ֥ל תֵּבֵל NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 13 obj _ Gloss=[the].world|Ref=PSA_96:13!10|MId=o190960130101|Strong=8398 15-16 בְּצֶ֑דֶק _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=PSA_96:13!11|MId=o190960130111|Strong=0871a 16 צֶ֑דֶק צֶדֶק NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 13 obl _ Gloss=righteousness|Ref=PSA_96:13!11|MId=o190960130112|Strong=6664 17-18 וְ֝עַמִּ֗ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 וְ֝ וְ CCONJ _ _ 18 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=PSA_96:13!12|MId=o190960130121|Strong=2050b 18 עַמִּ֗ים עַם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 13 conj _ Gloss=peoples|Ref=PSA_96:13!12|MId=o190960130122|Strong=5971 19-21 בֶּאֱמוּנָתֽוֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 בֶּ בְּ ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=PSA_96:13!13|MId=o190960130131|Strong=0871a 20 אֱמוּנָת אֱמוּנָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 18 obl _ Gloss=faithfulness|Ref=PSA_96:13!13|MId=o190960130132|Strong=0530 21 ֽוֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 20 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=PSA_96:13!13|MId=o190960130133|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 22 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 21 punct _ Ref=PSA_96:13!13 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | בָא *\[he is\] coming* | qatal · qal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | | | | בָא *\[he is\] coming* | qatal · qal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | | | | שְׁפֹּט *judge* | infinitive construct · qal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | אָרֶץ *earth* | | | | יִשְׁפֹּֽט־ *he will judge* | yiqtol · qal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | תֵּבֵל *\[the\] world* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
