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 — city, priests, Joshua, LORD — and what happens in the verse to city, you, 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. וַיְהִי֙ בַּפַּ֣עַם הַשְּׁבִיעִ֔ית תָּקְע֥וּ הַכֹּהֲנִ֖ים בַּשּׁוֹפָר֑וֹת וַיֹּ֨אמֶר יְהוֹשֻׁ֤עַ אֶל־הָעָם֙ הָרִ֔יעוּ כִּֽי־נָתַ֧ן יְהוָ֛ה לָכֶ֖ם אֶת־הָעִֽיר׃ [And it came to pass at the seventh time, when the priests blew with the horns, that Joshua said unto the people: 'Shout; for the LORD hath given you the city.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JOS.115/) ## 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:113 # text = וַיְהִי֙ בַּפַּ֣עַם הַשְּׁבִיעִ֔ית תָּקְע֥וּ הַכֹּהֲנִ֖ים בַּשּׁוֹפָר֑וֹת וַיֹּ֨אמֶר יְהוֹשֻׁ֤עַ אֶל־הָעָם֙ הָרִ֔יעוּ כִּֽי־נָתַ֧ן יְהוָ֛ה לָכֶ֖ם אֶת־הָעִֽיר׃ # verse = JOS.6.16 1-2 וַיְהִי֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JOS_6:16!1|MId=o060060160011|Strong=2050b 2 יְהִי֙ הָיָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=it.was|Ref=JOS_6:16!1|MId=o060060160012|Strong=1961|Type=wayyiqtol 3-5 בַּפַּ֣עַם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=at|Ref=JOS_6:16!2|MId=o060060160021|Strong=0871a 4 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 5 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JOS_6:16!2|MId=o060060160021ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 5 פַּ֣עַם פַּעַם NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=time|Ref=JOS_6:16!2|MId=o060060160022|Strong=6471 6-7 הַשְּׁבִיעִ֔ית _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 7 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=JOS_6:16!3|MId=o060060160031|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 7 שְּׁבִיעִ֔ית שְׁבִיעִי NUM _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 5 nummod _ Gloss=seventh|Ref=JOS_6:16!3|MId=o060060160032|Strong=7637|Type=ordinal_number 8 תָּקְע֥וּ תָּקַע VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 parataxis _ Gloss=they.gave.a.blast|Ref=JOS_6:16!4|MId=o060060160041|Strong=8628|Frame=A0:060060160052;|Type=qatal 9-10 הַכֹּהֲנִ֖ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 10 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JOS_6:16!5|MId=o060060160051|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 10 כֹּהֲנִ֖ים כֹּהֵן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 8 nsubj _ Gloss=priests|Ref=JOS_6:16!5|MId=o060060160052|Strong=3548 11-13 בַּשּׁוֹפָר֑וֹת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=JOS_6:16!6|MId=o060060160061|Strong=0871a 12 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 13 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JOS_6:16!6|MId=o060060160061ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 13 שּׁוֹפָר֑וֹת שֹׁופָר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 8 obl _ Gloss=trumpets|Ref=JOS_6:16!6|MId=o060060160062|Strong=7782 14-15 וַיֹּ֨אמֶר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 15 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JOS_6:16!7|MId=o060060160071|Strong=2050b 15 יֹּ֨אמֶר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.said|Ref=JOS_6:16!7|MId=o060060160072|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:060060160081;|Type=wayyiqtol 16 יְהוֹשֻׁ֤עַ יְהֹושֻׁעַ PROPN _ _ 15 nsubj _ Gloss=Joshua|Ref=JOS_6:16!8|MId=o060060160081|Strong=3091 17 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JOS_6:16!9|MId=o060060160091|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 18-19 הָעָם֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 19 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JOS_6:16!10|MId=o060060160101|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 19 עָם֙ עַם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 15 obl _ Gloss=people|Ref=JOS_6:16!10|MId=o060060160102|Strong=5971 20 הָרִ֔יעוּ רוּעַ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Plur|Person=2 15 ccomp _ Gloss=shout|Ref=JOS_6:16!11|MId=o060060160111|Strong=7321|Frame=A0:060060160102;|Type=imperative 21 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 22 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=JOS_6:16!12|MId=o060060160121|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 22 נָתַ֧ן נָתַן VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 20 advcl _ Gloss=he.has.given|Ref=JOS_6:16!13|MId=o060060160131|Strong=5414|Frame=A0:060060160141;A1:060060160172;|Type=qatal 23 יְהוָ֛ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 22 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=JOS_6:16!14|MId=o060060160141|Strong=3068 24-25 לָכֶ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 ל לְ ADP _ _ 25 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JOS_6:16!15|MId=o060060160151|Strong=3807a 25 ָכֶ֖ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 22 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=JOS_6:16!15|MId=o060060160152|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 26 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 28 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=JOS_6:16!16|MId=o060060160161|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 27-28 הָעִֽיר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 28 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JOS_6:16!17|MId=o060060160171|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 28 עִֽיר עִיר NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 22 obj _ Gloss=city|Ref=JOS_6:16!17|MId=o060060160172|Strong=5892 29 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 28 punct _ Ref=JOS_6:16!17 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: command - act: request - 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | תָּקְעוּ *they gave a blast* | qatal · qal | כֹּהֲנִים *priests* | | | | | יֹּאמֶר *he said* | wayyiqtol · qal | יְהוֹשֻׁעַ *Joshua* | | | | | הָרִיעוּ *shout* | imperative · hiphil | עָם *people* | | | | | נָתַן *he has given* | qatal · qal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | עִֽיר *city* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
