Joshua 22:25 in Hebrew with its dependency tree, Targum Jonath --- [Mova](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) · [this page in HTML](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/JOS.22.25/) [home](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) / [corpora](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/) / [Tanakh](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/tanakh/) / [Nevi'im](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/) / [Joshua](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/JOS/) / [chapter 22](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/JOS/22/) / 22:25 # Joshua 22:25 יְהוֹשֻׁעַ **Who acts:** LORD, ye, children · **What happens:** make, have, cease, fear · **To what, where:** border, Jordan, portion, children, LORD This is Joshua 22:25 from Mova's open Bible corpus, the Tanakh in three languages (Nevi'im — the Prophets). 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, ye, children — and what happens in the verse to border, Jordan, portion, children, LORD, 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 24 chapters of Joshua on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וּגְב֣וּל נָֽתַן־יְ֠הוָה בֵּינֵ֨נוּ וּבֵינֵיכֶ֜ם בְּנֵי־רְאוּבֵ֤ן וּבְנֵי־גָד֙ אֶת־הַיַּרְדֵּ֔ן אֵין־לָכֶ֥ם חֵ֖לֶק בַּֽיהוָ֑ה וְהִשְׁבִּ֤יתוּ בְנֵיכֶם֙ אֶת־בָּנֵ֔ינוּ לְבִלְתִּ֖י יְרֹ֥א אֶת־יְהוָֽה׃ [for the LORD hath made the Jordan a border between us and you, ye children of Reuben and children of Gad; ye have no portion in the LORD; so might your children make our children cease from fearing the LORD.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JOS.622/) ## 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:JOS:599 # text = וּגְב֣וּל נָֽתַן־יְ֠הוָה בֵּינֵ֨נוּ וּבֵינֵיכֶ֜ם בְּנֵי־רְאוּבֵ֤ן וּבְנֵי־גָד֙ אֶת־הַיַּרְדֵּ֔ן אֵין־לָכֶ֥ם חֵ֖לֶק בַּֽיהוָ֑ה וְהִשְׁבִּ֤יתוּ בְנֵיכֶם֙ אֶת־בָּנֵ֔ינוּ לְבִלְתִּ֖י יְרֹ֥א אֶת־יְהוָֽה׃ # verse = JOS.22.25 1-2 וּגְב֣וּל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 3 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JOS_22:25!1|MId=o060220250011|Strong=2050b 2 גְב֣וּל גְּבוּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 xcomp _ Gloss=a.border|Ref=JOS_22:25!1|MId=o060220250012|Strong=1366 3 נָֽתַן־ נָתַן VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.has.put|Ref=JOS_22:25!2|MId=o060220250021|Strong=5414|Frame=A0:060220250031;A1:060220250112;|Type=qatal|SpaceAfter=No 4 יְ֠הוָה יהוה PROPN _ _ 3 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=JOS_22:25!3|MId=o060220250031|Strong=3068 5-6 בֵּינֵ֨נוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 בֵּינ בֵּין ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=between|Ref=JOS_22:25!4|MId=o060220250041|Strong=0996 6 ֵ֨נוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 3 obl _ Gloss=us|Ref=JOS_22:25!4|MId=o060220250042|Strong=5105a|Type=pronominal 7-9 וּבֵינֵיכֶ֜ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 9 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JOS_22:25!5|MId=o060220250051|Strong=2050b 8 בֵינֵי בֵּין ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=between|Ref=JOS_22:25!5|MId=o060220250052|Strong=0996 9 כֶ֜ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 6 conj _ Gloss=you|Ref=JOS_22:25!5|MId=o060220250053|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 10 בְּנֵי־ בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 9 appos _ Gloss=the.descendants|Ref=JOS_22:25!6|MId=o060220250061|Strong=1121|SpaceAfter=No 11 רְאוּבֵ֤ן רְאוּבֵן PROPN _ _ 10 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Reuben|Ref=JOS_22:25!7|MId=o060220250071|Strong=7205 12-13 וּבְנֵי־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 13 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JOS_22:25!8|MId=o060220250081|Strong=2050b 13 בְנֵי־ בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 10 conj _ Gloss=the.descendants|Ref=JOS_22:25!8|MId=o060220250082|Strong=1121 14 גָד֙ גָּד PROPN _ _ 13 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Gad|Ref=JOS_22:25!9|MId=o060220250091|Strong=1410 15 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=JOS_22:25!10|MId=o060220250101|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 16-17 הַיַּרְדֵּ֔ן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 17 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JOS_22:25!11|MId=o060220250111|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 17 יַּרְדֵּ֔ן יַרְדֵּן PROPN _ _ 3 obj _ Gloss=Jordan|Ref=JOS_22:25!11|MId=o060220250112|Strong=3383 18 אֵין־ אַיִן ADV _ _ 3 parataxis _ Gloss=there.[belongs].not|Ref=JOS_22:25!12|MId=o060220250121|Strong=0369|Type=negative|SpaceAfter=No 19-20 לָכֶ֥ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 ל לְ ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JOS_22:25!13|MId=o060220250131|Strong=3807a 20 ָכֶ֥ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 18 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=JOS_22:25!13|MId=o060220250132|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 21 חֵ֖לֶק חֵלֶק NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 18 nsubj _ Gloss=a.portion|Ref=JOS_22:25!14|MId=o060220250141|Strong=2506 22-23 בַּֽיהוָ֑ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 בַּֽ בְּ ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=JOS_22:25!15|MId=o060220250151|Strong=0871a 23 יהוָ֑ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 21 nmod _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=JOS_22:25!15|MId=o060220250152|Strong=3068 24-25 וְהִשְׁבִּ֤יתוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 25 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JOS_22:25!16|MId=o060220250161|Strong=2050b 25 הִשְׁבִּ֤יתוּ שָׁבַת VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Plur|Person=3 3 conj _ Gloss=they.will.cause.to.cease|Ref=JOS_22:25!16|MId=o060220250162|Strong=7673|Frame=AA:060220250171;A0:060220250191;|Type=qatal 26-27 בְנֵיכֶם֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 בְנֵי בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 25 nsubj _ Gloss=descendants|Ref=JOS_22:25!17|MId=o060220250171|Strong=1121 27 כֶם֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 26 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=JOS_22:25!17|MId=o060220250172|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 28 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 29 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=JOS_22:25!18|MId=o060220250181|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 29-30 בָּנֵ֔ינוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 29 בָּנֵ֔י בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 25 obj _ Gloss=descendants|Ref=JOS_22:25!19|MId=o060220250191|Strong=1121 30 נוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 29 nmod:poss _ Gloss=our|Ref=JOS_22:25!19|MId=o060220250192|Strong=5105a|Type=pronominal 31-32 לְבִלְתִּ֖י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 31 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 33 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JOS_22:25!20|MId=o060220250201|Strong=3807a 32 בִלְתִּ֖י בֵּלֶת ADP _ _ 33 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=JOS_22:25!20|MId=o060220250202|Strong=1115 33 יְרֹ֥א יָרֵא VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 25 advcl _ Gloss=to.fear|Ref=JOS_22:25!21|MId=o060220250211|Strong=3372|Frame=A0:060220250191;A1:060220250231;|Type=infinitive_construct 34 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 35 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=JOS_22:25!22|MId=o060220250221|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 35 יְהוָֽה יהוה PROPN _ _ 33 obj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=JOS_22:25!23|MId=o060220250231|Strong=3068|SpaceAfter=No 36 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 35 punct _ Ref=JOS_22:25!23 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
