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 — thou, razor, child — and what happens in the verse to son, head, Nazirite, womb, Israel, hand, 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. כִּי֩ הִנָּ֨ךְ הָרָ֜ה וְיֹלַ֣דְתְּ בֵּ֗ן וּמוֹרָה֙ לֹא־יַעֲלֶ֣ה עַל־רֹאשׁ֔וֹ כִּֽי־נְזִ֧יר אֱלֹהִ֛ים יִהְיֶ֥ה הַנַּ֖עַר מִן־הַבָּ֑טֶן וְה֗וּא יָחֵ֛ל לְהוֹשִׁ֥יעַ אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל מִיַּ֥ד פְּלִשְׁתִּֽים׃ [For, lo, thou shalt conceive, and bear a son; and no razor shall come upon his head; for the child shall be a Nazirite unto God from the womb; and he shall begin to save Israel out of the hand of the Philistines.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JDG.402/) ## 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:379 # text = כִּי֩ הִנָּ֨ךְ הָרָ֜ה וְיֹלַ֣דְתְּ בֵּ֗ן וּמוֹרָה֙ לֹא־יַעֲלֶ֣ה עַל־רֹאשׁ֔וֹ כִּֽי־נְזִ֧יר אֱלֹהִ֛ים יִהְיֶ֥ה הַנַּ֖עַר מִן־הַבָּ֑טֶן וְה֗וּא יָחֵ֛ל לְהוֹשִׁ֥יעַ אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל מִיַּ֥ד פְּלִשְׁתִּֽים׃ # verse = JDG.13.5 1 כִּי֩ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 4 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=JDG_13:5!1|MId=o070130050011|Strong=3588 2-3 הִנָּ֨ךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 2 הִנּ הִנֵּה INTJ _ _ 4 nsubj _ Gloss=here|Ref=JDG_13:5!2|MId=o070130050021|Strong=2009|Type=demonstrative 3 ָ֨ךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 2 nsubj _ Gloss=you|Ref=JDG_13:5!2|MId=o070130050022|Strong=3509c|Type=pronominal 4 הָרָ֜ה הָרָה ADJ _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 0 root _ Gloss=[will.be].pregnant|Ref=JDG_13:5!3|MId=o070130050031|Strong=2030|Type=adjective 5-6 וְיֹלַ֣דְתְּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 6 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JDG_13:5!4|MId=o070130050041|Strong=2050b 6 יֹלַ֣דְתְּ יָלַד VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 4 conj _ Gloss=you.will.bear|Ref=JDG_13:5!4|MId=o070130050042|Strong=3205|Frame=A0:070130030052;A1:070130050051;|Type=weqatal 7 בֵּ֗ן בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 obj _ Gloss=a.son|Ref=JDG_13:5!5|MId=o070130050051|Strong=1121 8-9 וּמוֹרָה֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 11 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JDG_13:5!6|MId=o070130050061|Strong=2050b 9 מוֹרָה֙ מוֹרָה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 11 nsubj _ Gloss=a.razor|Ref=JDG_13:5!6|MId=o070130050062|Strong=4177 10 לֹא־ לֹא ADV _ _ 11 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=JDG_13:5!7|MId=o070130050071|Strong=3808|Type=negative|SpaceAfter=No 11 יַעֲלֶ֣ה עָלָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 4 conj _ Gloss=it.will.go.up|Ref=JDG_13:5!8|MId=o070130050081|Strong=5927|Frame=A0:070130050062;|Type=yiqtol 12 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=JDG_13:5!9|MId=o070130050091|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 13-14 רֹאשׁ֔וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 רֹאשׁ רֹאשׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 11 obl _ Gloss=head|Ref=JDG_13:5!10|MId=o070130050101|Strong=7218 14 ֔וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 13 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=JDG_13:5!10|MId=o070130050102|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 15 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 16 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=JDG_13:5!11|MId=o070130050111|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 16 נְזִ֧יר נָזִיר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 4 advcl _ Gloss=a.Nazirite|Ref=JDG_13:5!12|MId=o070130050121|Strong=5139 17 אֱלֹהִ֛ים אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 16 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.God|Ref=JDG_13:5!13|MId=o070130050131|Strong=0430 18 יִהְיֶ֥ה הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 16 cop _ Gloss=he.will.be|Ref=JDG_13:5!14|MId=o070130050141|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:070130050152;|Type=yiqtol 19-20 הַנַּ֖עַר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 20 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JDG_13:5!15|MId=o070130050151|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 20 נַּ֖עַר נַעַר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 16 nsubj _ Gloss=lad|Ref=JDG_13:5!15|MId=o070130050152|Strong=5288 21 מִן־ מִן ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=JDG_13:5!16|MId=o070130050161|Strong=4480|SpaceAfter=No 22-23 הַבָּ֑טֶן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 23 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JDG_13:5!17|MId=o070130050171|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 23 בָּ֑טֶן בֶּטֶן NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 16 obl _ Gloss=womb|Ref=JDG_13:5!17|MId=o070130050172|Strong=0990 24-25 וְה֗וּא _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 26 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JDG_13:5!18|MId=o070130050181|Strong=2050b 25 ה֗וּא הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 26 nsubj _ Gloss=he|Ref=JDG_13:5!18|MId=o070130050182|Strong=1931|Type=personal 26 יָחֵ֛ל חָלַל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 4 conj _ Gloss=he.will.begin|Ref=JDG_13:5!19|MId=o070130050191|Strong=2490|Frame=A0:070130050182;|Type=yiqtol 27-28 לְהוֹשִׁ֥יעַ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 28 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JDG_13:5!20|MId=o070130050201|Strong=3807a 28 הוֹשִׁ֥יעַ יָשַׁע VERB _ HebBinyan=HIPHIL 26 xcomp _ Gloss=deliver|Ref=JDG_13:5!20|MId=o070130050202|Strong=3467|Frame=AA:070130050152;A0:070130050221;|Type=infinitive_construct 29 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 30 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=JDG_13:5!21|MId=o070130050211|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 30 יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל יִשְׂרָאֵל PROPN _ _ 28 obj _ Gloss=Israel|Ref=JDG_13:5!22|MId=o070130050221|Strong=3478 31-32 מִיַּ֥ד _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 31 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 32 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=JDG_13:5!23|MId=o070130050231|Strong=4480 32 יַּ֥ד יָד NOUN _ Number=Sing 28 obl _ Gloss=the.hand|Ref=JDG_13:5!23|MId=o070130050232|Strong=3027 33 פְּלִשְׁתִּֽים פְּלִשְׁתִּי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 32 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.[the].Philistines|Ref=JDG_13:5!24|MId=o070130050241|Strong=6430|Type=gentilic|SpaceAfter=No 34 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 33 punct _ Ref=JDG_13:5!24 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
