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 — Saul — and what happens in the verse to people, Telaim, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the Aramaic of Targum Jonathan 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 1 Samuel on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וַיְשַׁמַּ֤ע שָׁאוּל֙ אֶת־הָעָ֔ם וַֽיִּפְקְדֵם֙ בַּטְּלָאִ֔ים מָאתַ֥יִם אֶ֖לֶף רַגְלִ֑י וַעֲשֶׂ֥רֶת אֲלָפִ֖ים אֶת־אִ֥ישׁ יְהוּדָֽה׃ [And Saul summoned the people, and numbered them in Telaim, two hundred thousand footmen, and ten thousand men of Judah.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/1SA.385/) ## 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:1SA:351 # text = וַיְשַׁמַּ֤ע שָׁאוּל֙ אֶת־הָעָ֔ם וַֽיִּפְקְדֵם֙ בַּטְּלָאִ֔ים מָאתַ֥יִם אֶ֖לֶף רַגְלִ֑י וַעֲשֶׂ֥רֶת אֲלָפִ֖ים אֶת־אִ֥ישׁ יְהוּדָֽה׃ # verse = 1SA.15.4 1-2 וַיְשַׁמַּ֤ע _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1SA_15:4!1|MId=o090150040011|Strong=2050b 2 יְשַׁמַּ֤ע שָׁמַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.summoned|Ref=1SA_15:4!1|MId=o090150040012|Strong=8085|Frame=A0:090150040021;A1:090150040042;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 שָׁאוּל֙ שָׁאוּל PROPN _ _ 2 nsubj _ Gloss=Saul|Ref=1SA_15:4!2|MId=o090150040021|Strong=7586 4 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=1SA_15:4!3|MId=o090150040031|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 5-6 הָעָ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 6 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=1SA_15:4!4|MId=o090150040041|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 6 עָ֔ם עַם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obj _ Gloss=people|Ref=1SA_15:4!4|MId=o090150040042|Strong=5971 7-9 וַֽיִּפְקְדֵם֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 וַֽ וְ CCONJ _ _ 8 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1SA_15:4!5|MId=o090150040051|Strong=2050b 8 יִּפְקְד פָּקַד VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he|Ref=1SA_15:4!5|MId=o090150040052|Strong=6485|Frame=A0:090150040021;A1:090150040053;|Type=wayyiqtol 9 ֵם֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 8 obj _ Gloss=mustered.them|Ref=1SA_15:4!5|MId=o090150040053|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 10-12 בַּטְּלָאִ֔ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=at|Ref=1SA_15:4!6|MId=o090150040061|Strong=0871a 11 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 12 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=1SA_15:4!6|MId=o090150040061ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 12 טְּלָאִ֔ים טְלָאִים PROPN _ _ 8 obl _ Gloss=Telaim|Ref=1SA_15:4!6|MId=o090150040062|Strong=2923 13 מָאתַ֥יִם מֵאָה NUM _ Number=Dual 15 nummod _ Gloss=two.hundred|Ref=1SA_15:4!7|MId=o090150040071|Strong=3967|Type=cardinal_number 14 אֶ֖לֶף אֶלֶף NUM _ Number=Sing 13 flat _ Gloss=thousand|Ref=1SA_15:4!8|MId=o090150040081|Strong=0505|Type=cardinal_number 15 רַגְלִ֑י רַגְלִי ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 parataxis _ Gloss=foot.soldier[s]|Ref=1SA_15:4!9|MId=o090150040091|Strong=7273|Type=adjective 16-17 וַעֲשֶׂ֥רֶת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 17 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1SA_15:4!10|MId=o090150040101|Strong=2050b 17 עֲשֶׂ֥רֶת עֲשָׂרָה NUM _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 15 conj _ Gloss=ten|Ref=1SA_15:4!10|MId=o090150040102|Strong=6235|Type=cardinal_number 18 אֲלָפִ֖ים אֶלֶף NUM _ Number=Plur 17 flat _ Gloss=thousand(s)|Ref=1SA_15:4!11|MId=o090150040111|Strong=0505|Type=cardinal_number 19 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=1SA_15:4!12|MId=o090150040121|Strong=0854|SpaceAfter=No 20 אִ֥ישׁ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 17 nmod _ Gloss=(the).man|Ref=1SA_15:4!13|MId=o090150040131|Strong=0376 21 יְהוּדָֽה יְהוּדָה PROPN _ _ 20 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Judah|Ref=1SA_15:4!14|MId=o090150040141|Strong=3063|SpaceAfter=No 22 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 21 punct _ Ref=1SA_15:4!14 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יְשַׁמַּע *he summoned* | wayyiqtol · piel | שָׁאוּל *Saul* | עָם *people* | | | | יִּפְקְד *he* | wayyiqtol · qal | שָׁאוּל *Saul* | ֵם *mustered them* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
