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 — and what happens in the verse to land, 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. כִּ֡י הֵם֩ וּמִקְנֵיהֶ֨ם יַעֲל֜וּ וְאָהֳלֵיהֶ֗ם וּבָ֤אוּ כְדֵֽי־אַרְבֶּה֙ לָרֹ֔ב וְלָהֶ֥ם וְלִגְמַלֵּיהֶ֖ם אֵ֣ין מִסְפָּ֑ר וַיָּבֹ֥אוּ בָאָ֖רֶץ לְשַׁחֲתָֽהּ׃ [For they came up with their cattle and their tents, and they came in as locusts for multitude; both they and their camels were without number; and they came into the land to destroy it.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JDG.163/) ## 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:149 # text = כִּ֡י הֵם֩ וּמִקְנֵיהֶ֨ם יַעֲל֜וּ וְאָהֳלֵיהֶ֗ם וּבָ֤אוּ כְדֵֽי־אַרְבֶּה֙ לָרֹ֔ב וְלָהֶ֥ם וְלִגְמַלֵּיהֶ֖ם אֵ֣ין מִסְפָּ֑ר וַיָּבֹ֥אוּ בָאָ֖רֶץ לְשַׁחֲתָֽהּ׃ # verse = JDG.6.5 1 כִּ֡י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 6 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=JDG_6:5!1|MId=o070060050011|Strong=3588 2 הֵם֩ הֵם PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 6 nsubj _ Gloss=they|Ref=JDG_6:5!2|MId=o070060050021|Strong=1992|Type=personal 3-5 וּמִקְנֵיהֶ֨ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 4 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JDG_6:5!3|MId=o070060050031|Strong=2050b 4 מִקְנֵי מִקְנֶה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 2 conj _ Gloss=livestock|Ref=JDG_6:5!3|MId=o070060050032|Strong=4735 5 הֶ֨ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 4 nmod:poss _ Gloss=their|Ref=JDG_6:5!3|MId=o070060050033|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 6 יַעֲל֜וּ עָלָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.came.up|Ref=JDG_6:5!4|MId=o070060050041|Strong=5927|Frame=A0:070060050021;070060050032;070060050052;|Type=yiqtol 7-9 וְאָהֳלֵיהֶ֗ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 8 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JDG_6:5!5|MId=o070060050051|Strong=2050b 8 אָהֳלֵי אֹהֶל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 2 conj _ Gloss=tents|Ref=JDG_6:5!5|MId=o070060050052|Strong=0168 9 הֶ֗ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 8 nmod:poss _ Gloss=their|Ref=JDG_6:5!5|MId=o070060050053|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 10-11 וּבָ֤אוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 11 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JDG_6:5!7|MId=o070060050071|Strong=2050b 11 בָ֤אוּ בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 6 conj _ Gloss=they.came|Ref=JDG_6:5!7|MId=o070060050072|Strong=0935|Frame=A0:070060030061;070060030072;070060030082;|Type=weqatal 12-13 כְדֵֽי־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 כְ כְּ ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=according|Ref=JDG_6:5!8|MId=o070060050081|Strong=3509a 13 דֵֽי־ דַּי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 11 obl _ Gloss=to.[the].abundance|Ref=JDG_6:5!8|MId=o070060050082|Strong=1767 14 אַרְבֶּה֙ אַרְבֶּה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 13 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.locust[s]|Ref=JDG_6:5!9|MId=o070060050091|Strong=0697 15-16 לָרֹ֔ב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 לָ לְ ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=JDG_6:5!10|MId=o070060050101|Strong=3807a 16 רֹ֔ב רֹב NOUN _ Number=Sing 13 nmod _ Gloss=multitude|Ref=JDG_6:5!10|MId=o070060050102|Strong=7230 17-19 וְלָהֶ֥ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 24 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JDG_6:5!11|MId=o070060050111|Strong=2050b 18 ל לְ ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JDG_6:5!11|MId=o070060050112|Strong=3807a 19 ָהֶ֥ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 24 obl _ Gloss=them|Ref=JDG_6:5!11|MId=o070060050113|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 20-23 וְלִגְמַלֵּיהֶ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 22 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JDG_6:5!12|MId=o070060050121|Strong=2050b 21 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JDG_6:5!12|MId=o070060050122|Strong=3807a 22 גְמַלֵּי גָּמָל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 19 conj _ Gloss=camels|Ref=JDG_6:5!12|MId=o070060050123|Strong=1581 23 הֶ֖ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 22 nmod:poss _ Gloss=their|Ref=JDG_6:5!12|MId=o070060050124|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 24 אֵ֣ין אַיִן ADV _ _ 6 conj _ Gloss=there.[was].not|Ref=JDG_6:5!13|MId=o070060050131|Strong=0369|Type=negative 25 מִסְפָּ֑ר מִסְפָּר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 24 nsubj _ Gloss=number|Ref=JDG_6:5!14|MId=o070060050141|Strong=4557 26-27 וַיָּבֹ֥אוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 27 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JDG_6:5!15|MId=o070060050151|Strong=2050b 27 יָּבֹ֥אוּ בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 6 conj _ Gloss=they.came|Ref=JDG_6:5!15|MId=o070060050152|Strong=0935|Frame=A0:070060030061;070060030072;070060030082;|Type=wayyiqtol 28-30 בָאָ֖רֶץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 28 בָ בְּ ADP _ _ 30 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=JDG_6:5!16|MId=o070060050161|Strong=0871a 29 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 30 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JDG_6:5!16|MId=o070060050161ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 30 אָ֖רֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 27 obl _ Gloss=land|Ref=JDG_6:5!16|MId=o070060050162|Strong=0776 31-33 לְשַׁחֲתָֽהּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 31 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 32 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JDG_6:5!17|MId=o070060050171|Strong=3807a 32 שַׁחֲת שָׁחַת VERB _ HebBinyan=PIEL 27 advcl _ Gloss=destroy|Ref=JDG_6:5!17|MId=o070060050172|Strong=7843|Frame=A0:070060030061;070060030072;070060030082;A1:070060050173;|Type=infinitive_construct 33 ָֽהּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 32 obj _ Gloss=it|Ref=JDG_6:5!17|MId=o070060050173|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 34 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 33 punct _ Ref=JDG_6:5!17 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
