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, I, people — and what happens in the verse to thee, sight, Israel, 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. וַיֹּ֤אמֶר יְהוָה֙ אֶל־יְהוֹשֻׁ֔עַ הַיּ֣וֹם הַזֶּ֗ה אָחֵל֙ גַּדֶּלְךָ֔ בְּעֵינֵ֖י כָּל־יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל אֲשֶׁר֙ יֵֽדְע֔וּן כִּ֗י כַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר הָיִ֛יתִי עִם־מֹשֶׁ֖ה אֶהְיֶ֥ה עִמָּֽךְ׃ [And the LORD said unto Joshua: 'This day will I begin to magnify thee in the sight of all Israel, that they may know that, as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JOS.49/) ## 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:48 # text = וַיֹּ֤אמֶר יְהוָה֙ אֶל־יְהוֹשֻׁ֔עַ הַיּ֣וֹם הַזֶּ֗ה אָחֵל֙ גַּדֶּלְךָ֔ בְּעֵינֵ֖י כָּל־יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל אֲשֶׁר֙ יֵֽדְע֔וּן כִּ֗י כַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר הָיִ֛יתִי עִם־מֹשֶׁ֖ה אֶהְיֶ֥ה עִמָּֽךְ׃ # verse = JOS.3.7 1-2 וַיֹּ֤אמֶר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JOS_3:7!1|MId=o060030070011|Strong=2050b 2 יֹּ֤אמֶר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.said|Ref=JOS_3:7!1|MId=o060030070012|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:060030070021;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 יְהוָה֙ יהוה PROPN _ _ 2 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=JOS_3:7!2|MId=o060030070021|Strong=3068 4 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JOS_3:7!3|MId=o060030070031|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 5 יְהוֹשֻׁ֔עַ יְהֹושֻׁעַ PROPN _ _ 2 obl _ Gloss=Joshua|Ref=JOS_3:7!4|MId=o060030070041|Strong=3091 6-7 הַיּ֣וֹם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 7 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JOS_3:7!5|MId=o060030070051|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 7 יּ֣וֹם יוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 10 obl _ Gloss=day|Ref=JOS_3:7!5|MId=o060030070052|Strong=3117 8-9 הַזֶּ֗ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 9 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=JOS_3:7!6|MId=o060030070061|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 9 זֶּ֗ה זֶה DET _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|PronType=Dem 7 det _ Gloss=this|Ref=JOS_3:7!6|MId=o060030070062|Strong=2088|Type=demonstrative 10 אָחֵל֙ חָלַל VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=1 2 ccomp _ Gloss=I.will.begin|Ref=JOS_3:7!7|MId=o060030070071|Strong=2490|Frame=AA:060030070021;A0:060030070081;|Type=yiqtol 11-12 גַּדֶּלְךָ֔ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 גַּדֶּל גָּדַל VERB _ HebBinyan=PIEL 10 ccomp _ Gloss=to|Ref=JOS_3:7!8|MId=o060030070081|Strong=1431|Frame=A0:060030070021;A1:060030070082;|Type=infinitive_construct 12 ְךָ֔ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 11 obj _ Gloss=make.you.great|Ref=JOS_3:7!8|MId=o060030070082|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 13-14 בְּעֵינֵ֖י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=JOS_3:7!9|MId=o060030070091|Strong=0871a 14 עֵינֵ֖י עַיִן NOUN _ Number=Dual 11 obl _ Gloss=the.eyes|Ref=JOS_3:7!9|MId=o060030070092|Strong=5869 15 כָּל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 14 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.all|Ref=JOS_3:7!10|MId=o060030070101|Strong=3605|SpaceAfter=No 16 יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל יִשְׂרָאֵל PROPN _ _ 15 compound:smixut _ Gloss=Israel|Ref=JOS_3:7!11|MId=o060030070111|Strong=3478 17 אֲשֶׁר֙ אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 18 mark _ Gloss=that|Ref=JOS_3:7!12|MId=o060030070121|Strong=0834|Type=relative 18-19 יֵֽדְע֔וּן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 יֵֽדְע֔וּ יָדַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 10 parataxis _ Gloss=they|Ref=JOS_3:7!13|MId=o060030070131|Strong=3045|Frame=A0:060030070111;A1:060030070191;|Type=yiqtol 19 ן נ X _ _ 18 nmod _ Gloss=will.know|Ref=JOS_3:7!13|MId=o060030070132|Strong=4993b|Type=paragogic_nun 20 כִּ֗י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 21 mark _ Gloss=(dm).that|Ref=JOS_3:7!14|MId=o060030070141|Strong=3588 21-22 כַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 כַּ כְּ ADP _ _ 18 ccomp _ Gloss=just|Ref=JOS_3:7!15|MId=o060030070151|Strong=3509a 22 אֲשֶׁ֥ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 25 mark _ Gloss=as|Ref=JOS_3:7!15|MId=o060030070152|Strong=0834|Type=relative 23 הָיִ֛יתִי הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 25 cop _ Gloss=I.was|Ref=JOS_3:7!16|MId=o060030070161|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:060030070021;|Type=qatal 24 עִם־ עִם ADP _ _ 25 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=JOS_3:7!17|MId=o060030070171|Strong=5973|SpaceAfter=No 25 מֹשֶׁ֖ה מֹשֶׁה PROPN _ _ 21 acl:relcl _ Gloss=Moses|Ref=JOS_3:7!18|MId=o060030070181|Strong=4872 26 אֶהְיֶ֥ה הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 21 cop _ Gloss=I.will.be|Ref=JOS_3:7!19|MId=o060030070191|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:060030070021;|Type=yiqtol 27-28 עִמָּֽךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 עִמּ עִם ADP _ _ 28 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=JOS_3:7!20|MId=o060030070201|Strong=5973 28 ָֽךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 21 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=JOS_3:7!20|MId=o060030070202|Strong=3509c|Type=pronominal 29 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 28 punct _ Ref=JOS_3:7!20 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: promise - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: no - the frame alone: decl · narrate · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יֹּאמֶר *he said* | wayyiqtol · qal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | | | | אָחֵל *I will begin* | yiqtol · hiphil | גַּדֶּל *to* | | | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | גַּדֶּל *to* | infinitive construct · piel | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | ְךָ *make you great* | | | | יֵֽדְעוּ *they* | yiqtol · qal | יִשְׂרָאֵל *Israel* | אֶהְיֶה *I will be* | | | | הָיִיתִי *I was* | qatal · qal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | | | | אֶהְיֶה *I will be* | yiqtol · qal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
