Deuteronomy 11:9 in Hebrew with its dependency tree, Targum Onkelos, JPS 1917 and the pragmatics of every clause. --- [Mova](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) · [this page in HTML](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/DEU.11.9/) [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/) / [Torah](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/) / [Deuteronomy](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/DEU/) / [chapter 11](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/DEU/11/) / 11:9 # Deuteronomy 11:9 דְּבָרִים **Who acts:** ye, LORD, land · **What happens:** prolong, swear, give, flow · **To what, where:** land This is Deuteronomy 11:9 from Mova's open Bible corpus, the Tanakh in three languages (The Torah). 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 — ye, LORD, land — and what happens in the verse to land, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the Aramaic of Targum Onkelos 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 34 chapters of Deuteronomy on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וּלְמַ֨עַן תַּאֲרִ֤יכוּ יָמִים֙ עַל־הָ֣אֲדָמָ֔ה אֲשֶׁר֩ נִשְׁבַּ֨ע יְהוָ֧ה לַאֲבֹתֵיכֶ֛ם לָתֵ֥ת לָהֶ֖ם וּלְזַרְעָ֑ם אֶ֛רֶץ זָבַ֥ת חָלָ֖ב וּדְבָֽשׁ׃ס [and that ye may prolong your days upon the land, which the LORD swore unto your fathers to give unto them and to their seed, a land flowing with milk and honey.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/DEU.327/) ## 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:DEU:324 # text = וּלְמַ֨עַן תַּאֲרִ֤יכוּ יָמִים֙ עַל־הָ֣אֲדָמָ֔ה אֲשֶׁר֩ נִשְׁבַּ֨ע יְהוָ֧ה לַאֲבֹתֵיכֶ֛ם לָתֵ֥ת לָהֶ֖ם וּלְזַרְעָ֑ם אֶ֛רֶץ זָבַ֥ת חָלָ֖ב וּדְבָֽשׁ׃ס # verse = DEU.11.9 1-2 וּלְמַ֨עַן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 3 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_11:9!1|MId=o050110090011|Strong=2050b 2 לְמַ֨עַן לְמַעַן SCONJ _ _ 3 mark _ Gloss=so.that|Ref=DEU_11:9!1|MId=o050110090012|Strong=4616 3 תַּאֲרִ֤יכוּ אָרַךְ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Plur|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=you.may.prolong|Ref=DEU_11:9!2|MId=o050110090021|Strong=0748|Frame=AA:050110060261;A0:050110090031;|Type=yiqtol 4 יָמִים֙ יוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 3 obj _ Gloss=days|Ref=DEU_11:9!3|MId=o050110090031|Strong=3117 5 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=DEU_11:9!4|MId=o050110090041|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 6-7 הָ֣אֲדָמָ֔ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 הָ֣ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 7 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=DEU_11:9!5|MId=o050110090051|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 7 אֲדָמָ֔ה אֲדָמָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 3 obl _ Gloss=land|Ref=DEU_11:9!5|MId=o050110090052|Strong=0127 8 אֲשֶׁר֩ אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 9 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=DEU_11:9!6|MId=o050110090061|Strong=0834|Type=relative 9 נִשְׁבַּ֨ע שָׁבַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 7 acl:relcl _ Gloss=he.swore|Ref=DEU_11:9!7|MId=o050110090071|Strong=7650|Frame=A0:050110090081;|Type=qatal 10 יְהוָ֧ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 9 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=DEU_11:9!8|MId=o050110090081|Strong=3068 11-13 לַאֲבֹתֵיכֶ֛ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 לַ לְ ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DEU_11:9!9|MId=o050110090091|Strong=3807a 12 אֲבֹתֵי אָב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 9 obl _ Gloss=ancestors|Ref=DEU_11:9!9|MId=o050110090092|Strong=0001 13 כֶ֛ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 12 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=DEU_11:9!9|MId=o050110090093|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 14-15 לָתֵ֥ת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 לָ לְ ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DEU_11:9!10|MId=o050110090101|Strong=3807a 15 תֵ֥ת נָתַן VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 9 xcomp _ Gloss=give|Ref=DEU_11:9!10|MId=o050110090102|Strong=5414|Frame=A0:050110090081;A1:050110090052;|Type=infinitive_construct 16-17 לָהֶ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 ל לְ ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DEU_11:9!11|MId=o050110090111|Strong=3807a 17 ָהֶ֖ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 15 obl _ Gloss=them|Ref=DEU_11:9!11|MId=o050110090112|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 18-21 וּלְזַרְעָ֑ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 20 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_11:9!12|MId=o050110090121|Strong=2050b 19 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DEU_11:9!12|MId=o050110090122|Strong=3807a 20 זַרְע זֶרַע NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 17 conj _ Gloss=offspring|Ref=DEU_11:9!12|MId=o050110090123|Strong=2233 21 ָ֑ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 20 nmod:poss _ Gloss=their|Ref=DEU_11:9!12|MId=o050110090124|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 22 אֶ֛רֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 7 appos _ Gloss=a.land|Ref=DEU_11:9!13|MId=o050110090131|Strong=0776 23 זָבַ֥ת זוּב VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 22 acl:relcl _ Gloss=flowing|Ref=DEU_11:9!14|MId=o050110090141|Strong=2100|Frame=A0:050110090131;|Type=participle_active 24 חָלָ֖ב חָלָב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 23 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.milk|Ref=DEU_11:9!15|MId=o050110090151|Strong=2461 25-26 וּדְבָֽשׁ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 26 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_11:9!16|MId=o050110090161|Strong=2050b 26 דְבָֽשׁ דְּבַשׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 24 conj _ Gloss=honey|Ref=DEU_11:9!16|MId=o050110090162|Strong=1706 27 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=DEU_11:9!16|SpaceAfter=No 28 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=DEU_11:9!16 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: request - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: no - indirect: yes | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | תַּאֲרִיכוּ *you may prolong* | yiqtol · hiphil | יָמִים *days* | | | | | נִשְׁבַּע *he swore* | qatal · niphal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | | | | תֵת *give* | infinitive construct · qal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | אֲדָמָה *land* | | | | זָבַת *flowing* | participle active · qal | אֶרֶץ *a land* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
