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 — LORD, camp, day — and what happens in the verse to voice, word, 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 4 chapters of Joel on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וַֽיהוָ֗ה נָתַ֤ן קוֹלוֹ֙ לִפְנֵ֣י חֵיל֔וֹ כִּ֣י רַ֤ב מְאֹד֙ מַחֲנֵ֔הוּ כִּ֥י עָצ֖וּם עֹשֵׂ֣ה דְבָר֑וֹ כִּֽי־גָד֧וֹל יוֹם־יְהוָ֛ה וְנוֹרָ֥א מְאֹ֖ד וּמִ֥י יְכִילֶֽנּוּ׃ [And the LORD uttereth His voice before His army; for His camp is very great, for he is mighty that executeth His word; for great is the day of the LORD and very terrible; and who can abide it?](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JOL.31/) ## 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:JOL:30 # text = וַֽיהוָ֗ה נָתַ֤ן קוֹלוֹ֙ לִפְנֵ֣י חֵיל֔וֹ כִּ֣י רַ֤ב מְאֹד֙ מַחֲנֵ֔הוּ כִּ֥י עָצ֖וּם עֹשֵׂ֣ה דְבָר֑וֹ כִּֽי־גָד֧וֹל יוֹם־יְהוָ֛ה וְנוֹרָ֥א מְאֹ֖ד וּמִ֥י יְכִילֶֽנּוּ׃ # verse = JOL.2.11 1-2 וַֽיהוָ֗ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַֽ וְ CCONJ _ _ 3 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JOL_2:11!1|MId=o290020110011|Strong=2050b 2 יהוָ֗ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 3 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=JOL_2:11!1|MId=o290020110012|Strong=3068 3 נָתַ֤ן נָתַן VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.gives.forth|Ref=JOL_2:11!2|MId=o290020110021|Strong=5414|Frame=A0:290020110012;A1:290020110031;|Type=qatal 4-5 קוֹלוֹ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 קוֹל קוֹל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 obj _ Gloss=voice|Ref=JOL_2:11!3|MId=o290020110031|Strong=6963 5 וֹ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 4 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=JOL_2:11!3|MId=o290020110032|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 6-7 לִפְנֵ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=before|Ref=JOL_2:11!4|MId=o290020110041|Strong=3807a 7 פְנֵ֣י פָּנֶה NOUN _ Number=Plur 3 obl _ Gloss=|Ref=JOL_2:11!4|MId=o290020110042|Strong=6440 8-9 חֵיל֔וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 חֵיל חַיִל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 7 compound:smixut _ Gloss=army|Ref=JOL_2:11!5|MId=o290020110051|Strong=2428 9 ֔וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 8 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=JOL_2:11!5|MId=o290020110052|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 10 כִּ֣י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 11 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=JOL_2:11!6|MId=o290020110061|Strong=3588 11 רַ֤ב רַב ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 advcl _ Gloss=[is].great|Ref=JOL_2:11!7|MId=o290020110071|Strong=7227|Type=adjective 12 מְאֹד֙ מְאֹד ADV _ _ 11 advmod _ Gloss=very|Ref=JOL_2:11!8|MId=o290020110081|Strong=3966 13-14 מַחֲנֵ֔הוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 מַחֲנ מַחֲנֶה NOUN _ Number=Sing 11 nsubj _ Gloss=camp|Ref=JOL_2:11!9|MId=o290020110091|Strong=4264 14 ֵ֔הוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 13 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=JOL_2:11!9|MId=o290020110092|Strong=1930a|Type=pronominal 15 כִּ֥י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 16 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=JOL_2:11!10|MId=o290020110101|Strong=3588 16 עָצ֖וּם עָצוּם ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 advcl _ Gloss=[is].mighty|Ref=JOL_2:11!11|MId=o290020110111|Strong=6099|Type=adjective 17 עֹשֵׂ֣ה עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 16 nsubj _ Gloss=the.[one.who].does|Ref=JOL_2:11!12|MId=o290020110121|Strong=6213|Frame=A1:290020110131;|Type=participle_active 18-19 דְבָר֑וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 דְבָר דָּבָר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 17 compound:smixut _ Gloss=word|Ref=JOL_2:11!13|MId=o290020110131|Strong=1697 19 ֑וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 18 nmod:poss _ Gloss=(of).his|Ref=JOL_2:11!13|MId=o290020110132|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 20 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 21 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=JOL_2:11!14|MId=o290020110141|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 21 גָד֧וֹל גָּדוֹל ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 advcl _ Gloss=[is].great|Ref=JOL_2:11!15|MId=o290020110151|Strong=1419|Type=adjective 22 יוֹם־ יוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 21 nsubj _ Gloss=the.day|Ref=JOL_2:11!16|MId=o290020110161|Strong=3117|SpaceAfter=No 23 יְהוָ֛ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 22 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=JOL_2:11!17|MId=o290020110171|Strong=3068 24-25 וְנוֹרָ֥א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 25 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JOL_2:11!18|MId=o290020110181|Strong=2050b 25 נוֹרָ֥א יָרֵא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing 21 acl:relcl _ Gloss=awesome|Ref=JOL_2:11!18|MId=o290020110182|Strong=3372|Frame=A1:290020110161;|Type=participle_active 26 מְאֹ֖ד מְאֹד ADV _ _ 25 advmod _ Gloss=exceedingly|Ref=JOL_2:11!19|MId=o290020110191|Strong=3966 27-28 וּמִ֥י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 29 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JOL_2:11!20|MId=o290020110201|Strong=2050b 28 מִ֥י מִי PRON _ PronType=Int 29 nsubj _ Gloss=who?|Ref=JOL_2:11!20|MId=o290020110202|Strong=4310|Type=interrogative 29-30 יְכִילֶֽנּוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 29 יְכִיל כּוּל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 3 conj _ Gloss=will|Ref=JOL_2:11!21|MId=o290020110211|Strong=3557|Frame=AA:290020110202;A0:290020110212;|Type=yiqtol 30 ֶֽנּוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 29 obj _ Gloss=he.endure.it|Ref=JOL_2:11!21|MId=o290020110212|Strong=5105b|Type=pronominal 31 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 30 punct _ Ref=JOL_2:11!21 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
