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 — and what happens in the verse to nations, thee, 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. כִּ֣י ׀ הַגּוֹיִ֣ם הָאֵ֗לֶּה אֲשֶׁ֤ר אַתָּה֙ יוֹרֵ֣שׁ אוֹתָ֔ם אֶל־מְעֹנְנִ֥ים וְאֶל־קֹסְמִ֖ים יִשְׁמָ֑עוּ וְאַתָּ֕ה לֹ֣א כֵ֔ן נָ֛תַןלְךָ֖ יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֶֽיךָ׃ [For these nations, that thou art to dispossess, hearken unto soothsayers, and unto diviners; but as for thee, the LORD thy God hath not suffered thee so to do.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/DEU.512/) ## 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:505 # text = כִּ֣י ׀ הַגּוֹיִ֣ם הָאֵ֗לֶּה אֲשֶׁ֤ר אַתָּה֙ יוֹרֵ֣שׁ אוֹתָ֔ם אֶל־מְעֹנְנִ֥ים וְאֶל־קֹסְמִ֖ים יִשְׁמָ֑עוּ וְאַתָּ֕ה לֹ֣א כֵ֔ן נָ֛תַןלְךָ֖ יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֶֽיךָ׃ # verse = DEU.18.14 1 כִּ֣י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 17 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=DEU_18:14!1|MId=o050180140011|Strong=3588 2 ׀ ׀ PUNCT _ _ 1 punct _ Ref=DEU_18:14!1 3-4 הַגּוֹיִ֣ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 4 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=DEU_18:14!2|MId=o050180140021|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 4 גּוֹיִ֣ם גּוֹי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 17 nsubj _ Gloss=nations|Ref=DEU_18:14!2|MId=o050180140022|Strong=1471 5-6 הָאֵ֗לֶּה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 6 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=DEU_18:14!3|MId=o050180140031|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 6 אֵ֗לֶּה אֵלֶּה DET _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|PronType=Dem 4 det _ Gloss=these|Ref=DEU_18:14!3|MId=o050180140032|Strong=0428|Type=demonstrative 7 אֲשֶׁ֤ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 9 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=DEU_18:14!4|MId=o050180140041|Strong=0834|Type=relative 8 אַתָּה֙ אַתָּה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 9 nsubj _ Gloss=you|Ref=DEU_18:14!5|MId=o050180140051|Strong=0859|Type=personal 9 יוֹרֵ֣שׁ יָרַשׁ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 4 acl:relcl _ Gloss=[are].about.to.dispossess|Ref=DEU_18:14!6|MId=o050180140061|Strong=3423|Frame=A0:050180140051;A1:050180140072;|Type=participle_active 10-11 אוֹתָ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 אוֹת אֵת ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=|Ref=DEU_18:14!7|MId=o050180140071|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 11 ָ֔ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 9 obj _ Gloss=them|Ref=DEU_18:14!7|MId=o050180140072|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 12 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DEU_18:14!8|MId=o050180140081|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 13 מְעֹנְנִ֥ים עָנַן VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=POEL|Number=Plur 17 advcl _ Gloss=soothsayers|Ref=DEU_18:14!9|MId=o050180140091|Strong=6049|Type=participle_active 14-15 וְאֶל־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 16 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_18:14!10|MId=o050180140101|Strong=2050b 15 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DEU_18:14!10|MId=o050180140102|Strong=0413 16 קֹסְמִ֖ים קָסַם VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur 13 conj _ Gloss=diviners|Ref=DEU_18:14!11|MId=o050180140111|Strong=7080|Type=participle_active 17 יִשְׁמָ֑עוּ שָׁמַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.listen|Ref=DEU_18:14!12|MId=o050180140121|Strong=8085|Frame=A0:050180140022;|Type=yiqtol 18-19 וְאַתָּ֕ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 22 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_18:14!13|MId=o050180140131|Strong=2050b 19 אַתָּ֕ה אַתָּה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 22 dislocated _ Gloss=you|Ref=DEU_18:14!13|MId=o050180140132|Strong=0859|Type=personal 20 לֹ֣א לֹא ADV _ _ 22 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=DEU_18:14!14|MId=o050180140141|Strong=3808|Type=negative 21 כֵ֔ן כֵּן ADV _ _ 22 advmod _ Gloss=thus|Ref=DEU_18:14!15|MId=o050180140151|Strong=3651 22-24 נָ֛תַןלְךָ֖ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 נָ֛תַן נָתַן VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 17 conj _ Gloss=he.has.permitted|Ref=DEU_18:14!16|MId=o050180140161|Strong=5414|Frame=A0:050180140181;|Type=qatal 23 ל לְ ADP _ _ 24 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DEU_18:14!17|MId=o050180140171|Strong=3807a 24 ְךָ֖ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 22 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=DEU_18:14!17|MId=o050180140172|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 25 יְהוָ֥ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 22 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=DEU_18:14!18|MId=o050180140181|Strong=3068 26-27 אֱלֹהֶֽיךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 אֱלֹהֶֽי אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 25 appos _ Gloss=God|Ref=DEU_18:14!19|MId=o050180140191|Strong=0430 27 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 26 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=DEU_18:14!19|MId=o050180140192|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 28 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 27 punct _ Ref=DEU_18:14!19 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: yes | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יוֹרֵשׁ *\[are\] about to dispossess* | participle active · qal | אַתָּה *you* | ָם *them* | | | | יִשְׁמָעוּ *they listen* | yiqtol · qal | גּוֹיִם *nations* | | | | | **not** נָתַן *he has permitted* | qatal · qal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
