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 — Delilah, Philistines, soul, I, LORD — and what happens in the verse to sleep, myself, 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. וַתֹּ֕אמֶר פְּלִשְׁתִּ֥ים עָלֶ֖יךָ שִׁמְשׁ֑וֹן וַיִּקַ֣ץ מִשְּׁנָת֗וֹ וַיֹּ֙אמֶר֙ אֵצֵ֞א כְּפַ֤עַם בְּפַ֙עַם֙ וְאִנָּעֵ֔ר וְהוּא֙ לֹ֣א יָדַ֔ע כִּ֥י יְהוָ֖ה סָ֥ר מֵעָלָֽיו׃ [And she said: 'The Philistines are upon thee, Samson.'

Under each word its part of speech and MACULA's English gloss. ```conllu rtl gloss # sent_id = wlc:JDG:459 # text = וַתֹּ֕אמֶר פְּלִשְׁתִּ֥ים עָלֶ֖יךָ שִׁמְשׁ֑וֹן וַיִּקַ֣ץ מִשְּׁנָת֗וֹ וַיֹּ֙אמֶר֙ אֵצֵ֞א כְּפַ֤עַם בְּפַ֙עַם֙ וְאִנָּעֵ֔ר וְהוּא֙ לֹ֣א יָדַ֔ע כִּ֥י יְהוָ֖ה סָ֥ר מֵעָלָֽיו׃ # verse = JDG.16.20 1-2 וַתֹּ֕אמֶר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JDG_16:20!1|MId=o070160200011|Strong=2050b 2 תֹּ֕אמֶר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=she.said|Ref=JDG_16:20!1|MId=o070160200012|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:070160180021;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 פְּלִשְׁתִּ֥ים פְּלִשְׁתִּי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 5 nsubj _ Gloss=[the].Philistines|Ref=JDG_16:20!2|MId=o070160200021|Strong=6430|Type=gentilic 4-5 עָלֶ֖יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 עָלֶ֖י עַל ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=[are].on|Ref=JDG_16:20!3|MId=o070160200031|Strong=5921 5 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 2 ccomp _ Gloss=you|Ref=JDG_16:20!3|MId=o070160200032|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 6 שִׁמְשׁ֑וֹן שִׁמְשׁוֹן PROPN _ _ 5 parataxis _ Gloss=O.Samson|Ref=JDG_16:20!4|MId=o070160200041|Strong=8123 7-8 וַיִּקַ֣ץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 8 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JDG_16:20!5|MId=o070160200051|Strong=2050b 8 יִּקַ֣ץ יָקַץ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.awoke|Ref=JDG_16:20!5|MId=o070160200052|Strong=3364|Frame=A0:070160130041;|Type=wayyiqtol 9-11 מִשְּׁנָת֗וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=JDG_16:20!6|MId=o070160200061|Strong=4480 10 שְּׁנָת שֵׁנָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 8 obl _ Gloss=sleep|Ref=JDG_16:20!6|MId=o070160200062|Strong=8142 11 ֗וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 10 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=JDG_16:20!6|MId=o070160200063|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 12-13 וַיֹּ֙אמֶר֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 13 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JDG_16:20!7|MId=o070160200071|Strong=2050b 13 יֹּ֙אמֶר֙ אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.said|Ref=JDG_16:20!7|MId=o070160200072|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:070160130041;|Type=wayyiqtol 14 אֵצֵ֞א יָצָא VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 13 ccomp _ Gloss=I.will.go.out|Ref=JDG_16:20!8|MId=o070160200081|Strong=3318|Frame=A0:070160130041;|Type=yiqtol 15-16 כְּפַ֤עַם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 כְּ כְּ ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=as|Ref=JDG_16:20!9|MId=o070160200091|Strong=3509a 16 פַ֤עַם פַּעַם NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 14 obl _ Gloss=time|Ref=JDG_16:20!9|MId=o070160200092|Strong=6471 17-18 בְּפַ֙עַם֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=JDG_16:20!10|MId=o070160200101|Strong=0871a 18 פַ֙עַם֙ פַּעַם NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 16 nmod _ Gloss=time|Ref=JDG_16:20!10|MId=o070160200102|Strong=6471 19-20 וְאִנָּעֵ֔ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 20 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JDG_16:20!11|MId=o070160200111|Strong=2050b 20 אִנָּעֵ֔ר נָעַר VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 14 conj _ Gloss=I.will.shake.myself.free|Ref=JDG_16:20!11|MId=o070160200112|Strong=5287|Frame=A0:070160130041;|Type=yiqtol 21-22 וְהוּא֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 24 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JDG_16:20!12|MId=o070160200121|Strong=2050b 22 הוּא֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 24 nsubj _ Gloss=he|Ref=JDG_16:20!12|MId=o070160200122|Strong=1931|Type=personal 23 לֹ֣א לֹא ADV _ _ 24 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=JDG_16:20!13|MId=o070160200131|Strong=3808|Type=negative 24 יָדַ֔ע יָדַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 14 conj _ Gloss=he.knew|Ref=JDG_16:20!14|MId=o070160200141|Strong=3045|Frame=A0:070160200122;A1:070160200171;|Type=qatal 25 כִּ֥י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 27 mark _ Gloss=(dm).that|Ref=JDG_16:20!15|MId=o070160200151|Strong=3588 26 יְהוָ֖ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 27 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=JDG_16:20!16|MId=o070160200161|Strong=3068 27 סָ֥ר סוּר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 24 ccomp _ Gloss=he.had.departed|Ref=JDG_16:20!17|MId=o070160200171|Strong=5493|Frame=A0:070160200161;|Type=qatal 28-30 מֵעָלָֽיו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 28 מֵ מִן ADP _ _ 30 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=JDG_16:20!18|MId=o070160200181|Strong=4480 29 עָלָֽי עַל ADP _ _ 30 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=JDG_16:20!18|MId=o070160200182|Strong=5921 30 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 27 obl _ Gloss=him|Ref=JDG_16:20!18|MId=o070160200183|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 31 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 30 punct _ Ref=JDG_16:20!18 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
