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 — nations, Benjamin — and what happens in the verse to mount, field, Gilead, 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 1 chapters of Obadiah on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וְיָרְשׁ֨וּ הַנֶּ֜גֶב אֶת־הַ֣ר עֵשָׂ֗ו וְהַשְּׁפֵלָה֙ אֶת־פְּלִשְׁתִּ֔ים וְיָרְשׁוּ֙ אֶת־שְׂדֵ֣ה אֶפְרַ֔יִם וְאֵ֖ת שְׂדֵ֣ה שֹׁמְר֑וֹן וּבִנְיָמִ֖ן אֶת־הַגִּלְעָֽד׃ [And they of the South shall possess the mount of Esau, and they of the Lowland the Philistines; and they shall possess the field of Ephraim, and the field of Samaria; and Benjamin shall possess Gilead.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/OBA.21/) ## 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:OBA:18 # text = וְיָרְשׁ֨וּ הַנֶּ֜גֶב אֶת־הַ֣ר עֵשָׂ֗ו וְהַשְּׁפֵלָה֙ אֶת־פְּלִשְׁתִּ֔ים וְיָרְשׁוּ֙ אֶת־שְׂדֵ֣ה אֶפְרַ֔יִם וְאֵ֖ת שְׂדֵ֣ה שֹׁמְר֑וֹן וּבִנְיָמִ֖ן אֶת־הַגִּלְעָֽד׃ # verse = OBA.1.19 1-2 וְיָרְשׁ֨וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=OBA_1:19!1|MId=o310010190011|Strong=2050b 2 יָרְשׁ֨וּ יָרַשׁ VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.will.take.possession.of|Ref=OBA_1:19!1|MId=o310010190012|Strong=3423|Frame=A0:310010190022;A1:310010190041;|Type=weqatal 3-4 הַנֶּ֜גֶב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 4 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=OBA_1:19!2|MId=o310010190021|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 4 נֶּ֜גֶב נֶגֶב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 nsubj _ Gloss=Negev|Ref=OBA_1:19!2|MId=o310010190022|Strong=5045 5 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=OBA_1:19!3|MId=o310010190031|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 6 הַ֣ר הַר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obj _ Gloss=the.mountain|Ref=OBA_1:19!4|MId=o310010190041|Strong=2022 7 עֵשָׂ֗ו עֵשָׂו PROPN _ _ 6 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Esau|Ref=OBA_1:19!5|MId=o310010190051|Strong=6215 8-10 וְהַשְּׁפֵלָה֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 10 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=OBA_1:19!6|MId=o310010190061|Strong=2050b 9 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 10 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=OBA_1:19!6|MId=o310010190062|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 10 שְּׁפֵלָה֙ שְׁפֵלָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 2 conj _ Gloss=Shephelah|Ref=OBA_1:19!6|MId=o310010190063|Strong=8219 11 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=OBA_1:19!7|MId=o310010190071|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 12 פְּלִשְׁתִּ֔ים פְּלִשְׁתִּי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 10 obj _ Gloss=Philistines|Ref=OBA_1:19!8|MId=o310010190081|Strong=6430|Type=gentilic 13-14 וְיָרְשׁוּ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 14 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=OBA_1:19!9|MId=o310010190091|Strong=2050b 14 יָרְשׁוּ֙ יָרַשׁ VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=they.will.take.possession.of|Ref=OBA_1:19!9|MId=o310010190092|Strong=3423|Frame=A0:310010190022;310010190063;A1:310010190111;310010190141;|Type=weqatal 15 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=OBA_1:19!10|MId=o310010190101|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 16 שְׂדֵ֣ה שָׂדֶה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 14 obj _ Gloss=the.region|Ref=OBA_1:19!11|MId=o310010190111|Strong=7704 17 אֶפְרַ֔יִם אֶפְרַיִם PROPN _ _ 16 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Ephraim|Ref=OBA_1:19!12|MId=o310010190121|Strong=0669 18-19 וְאֵ֖ת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 20 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=OBA_1:19!13|MId=o310010190131|Strong=2050b 19 אֵ֖ת אֵת ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=OBA_1:19!13|MId=o310010190132|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 20 שְׂדֵ֣ה שָׂדֶה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 16 conj _ Gloss=the.region|Ref=OBA_1:19!14|MId=o310010190141|Strong=7704 21 שֹׁמְר֑וֹן שֹׁמְרוֹן PROPN _ _ 20 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Samaria|Ref=OBA_1:19!15|MId=o310010190151|Strong=8111 22-23 וּבִנְיָמִ֖ן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 23 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=OBA_1:19!16|MId=o310010190161|Strong=2050b 23 בִנְיָמִ֖ן בִּנְיָמִן PROPN _ _ 2 conj _ Gloss=Benjamin|Ref=OBA_1:19!16|MId=o310010190162|Strong=1144 24 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 26 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=OBA_1:19!17|MId=o310010190171|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 25-26 הַגִּלְעָֽד _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 26 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=OBA_1:19!18|MId=o310010190181|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 26 גִּלְעָֽד גִּלְעָד PROPN _ _ 23 obj _ Gloss=Gilead|Ref=OBA_1:19!18|MId=o310010190182|Strong=1568 27 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=OBA_1:19!18 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יָרְשׁוּ *they will take possession of* | weqatal · qal | נֶּגֶב *Negev* | הַר *the mountain* | | | | יָרְשׁוּ *they will take possession of* | weqatal · qal | נֶּגֶב *Negev* + שְּׁפֵלָה *Shephelah* | שְׂדֵה *the region* + שְׂדֵה *the region* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
