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, spirit — and what happens in the verse to Naioth, Ramah, 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. וַיֵּ֣לֶךְ שָׁ֔ם אֶל־נָי֖וֹת בָּרָמָ֑ה וַתְּהִי֩ עָלָ֨יו גַּם־ה֜וּא ר֣וּחַ אֱלֹהִ֗ים וַיֵּ֤לֶךְ הָלוֹךְ֙ וַיִּתְנַבֵּ֔א עַד־בֹּא֖וֹ בְּנָי֥וֹת בָּרָמָֽה׃ [And he went thither to Naioth in Ramah; and the spirit of God came upon him also, and he went on, and prophesied, until he came to Naioth in Ramah.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/1SA.573/) ## 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:516 # text = וַיֵּ֣לֶךְ שָׁ֔ם אֶל־נָי֖וֹת בָּרָמָ֑ה וַתְּהִי֩ עָלָ֨יו גַּם־ה֜וּא ר֣וּחַ אֱלֹהִ֗ים וַיֵּ֤לֶךְ הָלוֹךְ֙ וַיִּתְנַבֵּ֔א עַד־בֹּא֖וֹ בְּנָי֥וֹת בָּרָמָֽה׃ # verse = 1SA.19.23 1-2 וַיֵּ֣לֶךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1SA_19:23!1|MId=o090190230011|Strong=2050b 2 יֵּ֣לֶךְ הלך VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.went|Ref=1SA_19:23!1|MId=o090190230012|Strong=1980|Frame=A0:090190210101;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 שָׁ֔ם שָׁם ADV _ _ 2 advmod _ Gloss=there|Ref=1SA_19:23!2|MId=o090190230021|Strong=8033 4 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=1SA_19:23!3|MId=o090190230031|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 5 נָי֖וֹת נָיֹות PROPN _ _ 2 obl _ Gloss=Naioth|Ref=1SA_19:23!5|MId=o090190230051|Strong=5121b 6-8 בָּרָמָ֑ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 בָּ בְּ ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=1SA_19:23!6|MId=o090190230061|Strong=0871a 7 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 8 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=1SA_19:23!6|MId=o090190230061ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 8 רָמָ֑ה רָמָה PROPN _ _ 5 nmod _ Gloss=Ramah|Ref=1SA_19:23!6|MId=o090190230062|Strong=7414 9-10 וַתְּהִי֩ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 10 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1SA_19:23!7|MId=o090190230071|Strong=2050b 10 תְּהִי֩ הָיָה VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=it.was|Ref=1SA_19:23!7|MId=o090190230072|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:090190230111;|Type=wayyiqtol 11-12 עָלָ֨יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 עָלָ֨י עַל ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=1SA_19:23!8|MId=o090190230081|Strong=5921 12 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 10 obl _ Gloss=him|Ref=1SA_19:23!8|MId=o090190230082|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 13 גַּם־ גַּם ADV _ _ 14 advmod _ Gloss=also|Ref=1SA_19:23!9|MId=o090190230091|Strong=1571|Type=affirmation|SpaceAfter=No 14 ה֜וּא הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 12 appos _ Gloss=he|Ref=1SA_19:23!10|MId=o090190230101|Strong=1931|Type=personal 15 ר֣וּחַ רוּחַ NOUN _ Number=Sing 10 nsubj _ Gloss=the.spirit|Ref=1SA_19:23!11|MId=o090190230111|Strong=7307 16 אֱלֹהִ֗ים אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 15 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.God|Ref=1SA_19:23!12|MId=o090190230121|Strong=0430 17-18 וַיֵּ֤לֶךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 18 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1SA_19:23!13|MId=o090190230131|Strong=2050b 18 יֵּ֤לֶךְ הלך VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.went|Ref=1SA_19:23!13|MId=o090190230132|Strong=1980|Frame=A0:090190210101;|Type=wayyiqtol 19 הָלוֹךְ֙ הָלַךְ VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 21 parataxis _ Gloss=steadily.(go)|Ref=1SA_19:23!14|MId=o090190230141|Strong=1980|Frame=A0:090190210101;|Type=infinitive_absolute 20-21 וַיִּתְנַבֵּ֔א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 21 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1SA_19:23!15|MId=o090190230151|Strong=2050b 21 יִּתְנַבֵּ֔א נָבָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HITHPAEL|Number=Sing|Person=3 18 advcl _ Gloss=he.prophesied|Ref=1SA_19:23!15|MId=o090190230152|Strong=5012|Frame=A0:090190210101;|Type=wayyiqtol 22 עַד־ עַד ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=until|Ref=1SA_19:23!16|MId=o090190230161|Strong=5704|SpaceAfter=No 23-24 בֹּא֖וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 בֹּא בּוֹא VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 21 advcl _ Gloss=came|Ref=1SA_19:23!17|MId=o090190230171|Strong=0935|Frame=A0:090190230172;|Type=infinitive_construct 24 ֖וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 23 nsubj _ Gloss=he|Ref=1SA_19:23!17|MId=o090190230172|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 25-26 בְּנָי֥וֹת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 26 case _ Gloss=at|Ref=1SA_19:23!19|MId=o090190230191|Strong=0871a 26 נָי֥וֹת נָיֹות PROPN _ _ 23 obl _ Gloss=Naioth|Ref=1SA_19:23!19|MId=o090190230192|Strong=5121b 27-29 בָּרָמָֽה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 בָּ בְּ ADP _ _ 29 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=1SA_19:23!20|MId=o090190230201|Strong=0871a 28 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 29 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=1SA_19:23!20|MId=o090190230201ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 29 רָמָֽה רָמָה PROPN _ _ 26 nmod _ Gloss=Ramah|Ref=1SA_19:23!20|MId=o090190230202|Strong=7414 30 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 29 punct _ Ref=1SA_19:23!20 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יֵּלֶךְ *he went* | wayyiqtol · qal | | | | | | תְּהִי *it was* | wayyiqtol · qal | רוּחַ *the spirit* | | | | | יֵּלֶךְ *he went* | wayyiqtol · qal | | | | | | הָלוֹךְ *steadily (go)* | infinitive absolute · qal | | | | | | יִּתְנַבֵּא *he prophesied* | wayyiqtol · hithpael | | | | | | בֹּא *came* | infinitive construct · qal | וֹ *he* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
