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 — children, We, whatsoever — and what happens in the verse to us, Thee, 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 21 chapters of Judges on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וַיֹּאמְר֨וּ בְנֵי־יִשְׂרָאֵ֤ל אֶל־יְהוָה֙ חָטָ֔אנוּ עֲשֵׂה־אַתָּ֣ה לָ֔נוּ כְּכָל־הַטּ֖וֹב בְּעֵינֶ֑יךָ אַ֛ךְ הַצִּילֵ֥נוּ נָ֖א הַיּ֥וֹם הַזֶּֽה׃ [And the children of Israel said unto the LORD: 'We have sinned; do Thou unto us whatsoever seemeth good unto Thee; only deliver us, we pray Thee, this day.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JDG.332/) ## 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:JDG:316 # text = וַיֹּאמְר֨וּ בְנֵי־יִשְׂרָאֵ֤ל אֶל־יְהוָה֙ חָטָ֔אנוּ עֲשֵׂה־אַתָּ֣ה לָ֔נוּ כְּכָל־הַטּ֖וֹב בְּעֵינֶ֑יךָ אַ֛ךְ הַצִּילֵ֥נוּ נָ֖א הַיּ֥וֹם הַזֶּֽה׃ # verse = JDG.10.15 1-2 וַיֹּאמְר֨וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JDG_10:15!1|MId=o070100150011|Strong=2050b 2 יֹּאמְר֨וּ אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.said|Ref=JDG_10:15!1|MId=o070100150012|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:070100150021;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 בְנֵי־ בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 2 nsubj _ Gloss=the.people|Ref=JDG_10:15!2|MId=o070100150021|Strong=1121|SpaceAfter=No 4 יִשְׂרָאֵ֤ל יִשְׂרָאֵל PROPN _ _ 3 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Israel|Ref=JDG_10:15!3|MId=o070100150031|Strong=3478 5 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JDG_10:15!4|MId=o070100150041|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 6 יְהוָה֙ יהוה PROPN _ _ 2 obl _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=JDG_10:15!5|MId=o070100150051|Strong=3068 7 חָטָ֔אנוּ חָטָא VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=1 2 ccomp _ Gloss=we.have.sinned|Ref=JDG_10:15!6|MId=o070100150061|Strong=2398|Frame=A0:070100150021;|Type=qatal 8 עֲשֵׂה־ עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 7 parataxis _ Gloss=do|Ref=JDG_10:15!7|MId=o070100150071|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:070100150081;|Type=imperative|SpaceAfter=No 9 אַתָּ֣ה אַתָּה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 8 nsubj _ Gloss=you|Ref=JDG_10:15!8|MId=o070100150081|Strong=0859|Type=personal 10-11 לָ֔נוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 ל לְ ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JDG_10:15!9|MId=o070100150091|Strong=3807a 11 ָ֔נוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 8 obl _ Gloss=us|Ref=JDG_10:15!9|MId=o070100150092|Strong=5105a|Type=pronominal 12-13 כְּכָל־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 כְּ כְּ ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=according|Ref=JDG_10:15!10|MId=o070100150101|Strong=3509a 13 כָל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 obl _ Gloss=to.all|Ref=JDG_10:15!10|MId=o070100150102|Strong=3605 14-15 הַטּ֖וֹב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 15 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JDG_10:15!11|MId=o070100150111|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 15 טּ֖וֹב טוֹב ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 13 compound:smixut _ Gloss=good|Ref=JDG_10:15!11|MId=o070100150112|Strong=2896|Type=adjective 16-18 בְּעֵינֶ֑יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=JDG_10:15!12|MId=o070100150121|Strong=0871a 17 עֵינֶ֑י עַיִן NOUN _ Number=Dual 15 nmod _ Gloss=eyes|Ref=JDG_10:15!12|MId=o070100150122|Strong=5869 18 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 17 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=JDG_10:15!12|MId=o070100150123|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 19 אַ֛ךְ אַךְ ADV _ _ 20 advmod _ Gloss=only|Ref=JDG_10:15!13|MId=o070100150131|Strong=0389|Type=affirmation 20-21 הַצִּילֵ֥נוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 הַצִּיל נָצַל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=2 7 parataxis _ Gloss=deliver|Ref=JDG_10:15!14|MId=o070100150141|Strong=5337|Frame=AA:070100150051;A0:070100150142;|Type=imperative 21 ֵ֥נוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 20 obj _ Gloss=us|Ref=JDG_10:15!14|MId=o070100150142|Strong=5105a|Type=pronominal 22 נָ֖א נָא INTJ _ _ 20 discourse _ Gloss=please|Ref=JDG_10:15!15|MId=o070100150151|Strong=4994|Type=exhortation 23-24 הַיּ֥וֹם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 24 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JDG_10:15!16|MId=o070100150161|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 24 יּ֥וֹם יוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 20 obl _ Gloss=day|Ref=JDG_10:15!16|MId=o070100150162|Strong=3117 25-26 הַזֶּֽה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 26 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=JDG_10:15!17|MId=o070100150171|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 26 זֶּֽה זֶה DET _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|PronType=Dem 24 det _ Gloss=this|Ref=JDG_10:15!17|MId=o070100150172|Strong=2088|Type=demonstrative 27 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=JDG_10:15!17 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: no - the frame alone: decl · narrate · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יֹּאמְרוּ *they said* | wayyiqtol · qal | בְנֵי־ *the people* | | | | | חָטָאנוּ *we have sinned* | qatal · qal | בְנֵי־ *the people* | | | | | עֲשֵׂה־ *do* | imperative · qal | אַתָּה *you* | | | | | הַצִּיל *deliver* | imperative · hiphil | ֵנוּ *us* | | | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
