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 — men, trunk, ark, hand — and what happens in the verse, 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. וַיִּרְא֥וּ אַנְשֵֽׁי־אַשְׁדּ֖וֹד כִּֽי־כֵ֑ן וְאָמְר֗וּ לֹֽא־יֵשֵׁ֞ב אֲר֨וֹן אֱלֹהֵ֤י יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ עִמָּ֔נוּ כִּֽי־קָשְׁתָ֤ה יָדוֹ֙ עָלֵ֔ינוּ וְעַ֖ל דָּג֥וֹן אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ׃ [And when the men of Ashdod saw that it was so, they said: 'The ark of the God of Israel shall not abide with us; for His hand is sore upon us, and upon Dagon our god.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/1SA.128/) ## 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:113 # text = וַיִּרְא֥וּ אַנְשֵֽׁי־אַשְׁדּ֖וֹד כִּֽי־כֵ֑ן וְאָמְר֗וּ לֹֽא־יֵשֵׁ֞ב אֲר֨וֹן אֱלֹהֵ֤י יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ עִמָּ֔נוּ כִּֽי־קָשְׁתָ֤ה יָדוֹ֙ עָלֵ֔ינוּ וְעַ֖ל דָּג֥וֹן אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ׃ # verse = 1SA.5.7 1-2 וַיִּרְא֥וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1SA_5:7!1|MId=o090050070011|Strong=2050b 2 יִּרְא֥וּ רָאָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.saw|Ref=1SA_5:7!1|MId=o090050070012|Strong=7200|Frame=A0:090050070021;A1:090050070051;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 אַנְשֵֽׁי־ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 2 nsubj _ Gloss=the.people|Ref=1SA_5:7!2|MId=o090050070021|Strong=0376|SpaceAfter=No 4 אַשְׁדּ֖וֹד אַשְׁדּוֹד PROPN _ _ 3 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Ashdod|Ref=1SA_5:7!3|MId=o090050070031|Strong=0795 5 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 6 mark _ Gloss=(dm).that|Ref=1SA_5:7!4|MId=o090050070041|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 6 כֵ֑ן כֵּן ADV _ _ 2 ccomp _ Gloss=so|Ref=1SA_5:7!5|MId=o090050070051|Strong=3651 7-8 וְאָמְר֗וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 8 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1SA_5:7!6|MId=o090050070061|Strong=2050b 8 אָמְר֗וּ אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=they.said|Ref=1SA_5:7!6|MId=o090050070062|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:090050070021;|Type=qatal 9 לֹֽא־ לֹא ADV _ _ 10 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=1SA_5:7!7|MId=o090050070071|Strong=3808|Type=negative|SpaceAfter=No 10 יֵשֵׁ֞ב יָשַׁב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 8 ccomp _ Gloss=it.will.remain|Ref=1SA_5:7!8|MId=o090050070081|Strong=3427|Frame=A0:090050070091;|Type=yiqtol 11 אֲר֨וֹן אֲרוֹן NOUN _ Number=Sing 10 nsubj _ Gloss=the.ark|Ref=1SA_5:7!9|MId=o090050070091|Strong=0727 12 אֱלֹהֵ֤י אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 11 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.the.God|Ref=1SA_5:7!10|MId=o090050070101|Strong=0430 13 יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ יִשְׂרָאֵל PROPN _ _ 12 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Israel|Ref=1SA_5:7!11|MId=o090050070111|Strong=3478 14-15 עִמָּ֔נוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 עִמּ עִם ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=1SA_5:7!12|MId=o090050070121|Strong=5973 15 ָ֔נוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 10 obl _ Gloss=us|Ref=1SA_5:7!12|MId=o090050070122|Strong=5105a|Type=pronominal 16 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 17 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=1SA_5:7!13|MId=o090050070131|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 17 קָשְׁתָ֤ה קָשָׁה VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 10 advcl _ Gloss=it.is.hard|Ref=1SA_5:7!14|MId=o090050070141|Strong=7185|Frame=A0:090050070151;|Type=qatal 18-19 יָדוֹ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 יָד יָד NOUN _ Number=Sing 17 nsubj _ Gloss=hand|Ref=1SA_5:7!15|MId=o090050070151|Strong=3027 19 וֹ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 18 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=1SA_5:7!15|MId=o090050070152|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 20-21 עָלֵ֔ינוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 עָלֵ֔י עַל ADP _ _ 21 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=1SA_5:7!16|MId=o090050070161|Strong=5921 21 נוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 17 obl _ Gloss=us|Ref=1SA_5:7!16|MId=o090050070162|Strong=5105a|Type=pronominal 22-23 וְעַ֖ל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 24 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1SA_5:7!17|MId=o090050070171|Strong=2050b 23 עַ֖ל עַל ADP _ _ 24 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=1SA_5:7!17|MId=o090050070172|Strong=5921 24 דָּג֥וֹן דָּגוֹן PROPN _ _ 21 conj _ Gloss=Dagon|Ref=1SA_5:7!18|MId=o090050070181|Strong=1712 25-26 אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 אֱלֹהֵֽי אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 24 appos _ Gloss=God|Ref=1SA_5:7!19|MId=o090050070191|Strong=0430 26 נוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 25 nmod:poss _ Gloss=our|Ref=1SA_5:7!19|MId=o090050070192|Strong=5105a|Type=pronominal 27 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=1SA_5:7!19 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: yes - the frame alone: decl · narrate · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יִּרְאוּ *they saw* | wayyiqtol · qal | אַנְשֵֽׁי־ *the people* | כֵן *so* | | | | אָמְרוּ *they said* | qatal · qal | אַנְשֵֽׁי־ *the people* | | | | | **not** יֵשֵׁב *it will remain* | yiqtol · qal | אֲרוֹן *the ark* | | | | | קָשְׁתָה *it is hard* | qatal · qal | יָד *hand* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
