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 — people — and what happens in the verse to wall, ways, paths, 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. כְּגִבּוֹרִ֣ים יְרֻצ֔וּן כְּאַנְשֵׁ֥י מִלְחָמָ֖ה יַעֲל֣וּ חוֹמָ֑ה וְאִ֤ישׁ בִּדְרָכָיו֙ יֵֽלֵכ֔וּן וְלֹ֥א יְעַבְּט֖וּן אֹרְחוֹתָֽם׃ [They run like mighty men, they climb the wall like men of war; and they move on every one in his ways, and they entangle not their paths.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JOL.27/) ## 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:26 # text = כְּגִבּוֹרִ֣ים יְרֻצ֔וּן כְּאַנְשֵׁ֥י מִלְחָמָ֖ה יַעֲל֣וּ חוֹמָ֑ה וְאִ֤ישׁ בִּדְרָכָיו֙ יֵֽלֵכ֔וּן וְלֹ֥א יְעַבְּט֖וּן אֹרְחוֹתָֽם׃ # verse = JOL.2.7 1-2 כְּגִבּוֹרִ֣ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 כְּ כְּ ADP _ _ 2 case _ Gloss=like|Ref=JOL_2:7!1|MId=o290020070011|Strong=3509a 2 גִבּוֹרִ֣ים גִּבּוֹר ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 3 obl _ Gloss=warriors|Ref=JOL_2:7!1|MId=o290020070012|Strong=1368|Type=adjective 3-4 יְרֻצ֔וּן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 יְרֻצ֔וּ רוּץ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they|Ref=JOL_2:7!2|MId=o290020070021|Strong=7323|Frame=A0:290020020111;|Type=yiqtol 4 ן נ X _ _ 3 nmod _ Gloss=run|Ref=JOL_2:7!2|MId=o290020070022|Strong=4993b|Type=paragogic_nun 5-6 כְּאַנְשֵׁ֥י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 כְּ כְּ ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=like|Ref=JOL_2:7!3|MId=o290020070031|Strong=3509a 6 אַנְשֵׁ֥י אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 8 obl _ Gloss=men|Ref=JOL_2:7!3|MId=o290020070032|Strong=0376 7 מִלְחָמָ֖ה מִלְחָמָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 6 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.war|Ref=JOL_2:7!4|MId=o290020070041|Strong=4421 8 יַעֲל֣וּ עָלָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 3 parataxis _ Gloss=they.go.up|Ref=JOL_2:7!5|MId=o290020070051|Strong=5927|Frame=A0:290020020111;|Type=yiqtol 9 חוֹמָ֑ה חוֹמָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 8 obl _ Gloss=a.wall|Ref=JOL_2:7!6|MId=o290020070061|Strong=2346 10-11 וְאִ֤ישׁ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 15 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JOL_2:7!7|MId=o290020070071|Strong=2050b 11 אִ֤ישׁ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 15 obl _ Gloss=each|Ref=JOL_2:7!7|MId=o290020070072|Strong=0376 12-14 בִּדְרָכָיו֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 בִּ בְּ ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=JOL_2:7!8|MId=o290020070081|Strong=0871a 13 דְרָכָי דֶּרֶךְ NOUN _ Number=Plur 15 obl _ Gloss=ways|Ref=JOL_2:7!8|MId=o290020070082|Strong=1870 14 ו֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 13 nmod:poss _ Gloss=its|Ref=JOL_2:7!8|MId=o290020070083|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 15-16 יֵֽלֵכ֔וּן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 יֵֽלֵכ֔וּ הלך VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 3 conj _ Gloss=they|Ref=JOL_2:7!9|MId=o290020070091|Strong=1980|Frame=A0:290020020111;|Type=yiqtol 16 ן נ X _ _ 15 nmod _ Gloss=go|Ref=JOL_2:7!9|MId=o290020070092|Strong=4993b|Type=paragogic_nun 17-18 וְלֹ֥א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 19 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JOL_2:7!10|MId=o290020070101|Strong=2050b 18 לֹ֥א לֹא ADV _ _ 19 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=JOL_2:7!10|MId=o290020070102|Strong=3808|Type=negative 19-20 יְעַבְּט֖וּן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 יְעַבְּט֖וּ עָבַט VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Plur|Person=3 3 conj _ Gloss=they|Ref=JOL_2:7!11|MId=o290020070111|Strong=5670a|Frame=A0:290020020111;A1:290020070121;|Type=yiqtol 20 ן נ X _ _ 19 nmod _ Gloss=exchange|Ref=JOL_2:7!11|MId=o290020070112|Strong=4993b|Type=paragogic_nun 21-22 אֹרְחוֹתָֽם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 אֹרְחוֹת אֹרַח NOUN _ Number=Plur 19 obj _ Gloss=paths|Ref=JOL_2:7!12|MId=o290020070121|Strong=0734 22 ָֽם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 21 nmod:poss _ Gloss=their|Ref=JOL_2:7!12|MId=o290020070122|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 23 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 22 punct _ Ref=JOL_2:7!12 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: narrator - speech: narration - negation: yes | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יְרֻצוּ *they* | yiqtol · qal | | | | | | יַעֲלוּ *they go up* | yiqtol · qal | | | | | | יֵֽלֵכוּ *they* | yiqtol · qal | | | | | | **not** יְעַבְּטוּ *they* | yiqtol · piel | | אֹרְחוֹת *paths* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
