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 — thou — and what happens in the verse to innocent blood, midst, that, eyes, 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. וְאַתָּ֗ה תְּבַעֵ֛ר הַדָּ֥ם הַנָּקִ֖י מִקִּרְבֶּ֑ךָ כִּֽי־תַעֲשֶׂ֥ה הַיָּשָׁ֖ר בְּעֵינֵ֥י יְהוָֽה׃ס [So shalt thou put away the innocent blood from the midst of thee, when thou shalt do that which is right in the eyes of the LORD.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/DEU.570/) ## 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:563 # text = וְאַתָּ֗ה תְּבַעֵ֛ר הַדָּ֥ם הַנָּקִ֖י מִקִּרְבֶּ֑ךָ כִּֽי־תַעֲשֶׂ֥ה הַיָּשָׁ֖ר בְּעֵינֵ֥י יְהוָֽה׃ס # verse = DEU.21.9 1-2 וְאַתָּ֗ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 3 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_21:9!1|MId=o050210090011|Strong=2050b 2 אַתָּ֗ה אַתָּה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 3 nsubj _ Gloss=you|Ref=DEU_21:9!1|MId=o050210090012|Strong=0859|Type=personal 3 תְּבַעֵ֛ר בָּעַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=you.will.remove|Ref=DEU_21:9!2|MId=o050210090021|Strong=1197a|Frame=A0:050210090012;A1:050210090032;|Type=yiqtol 4-5 הַדָּ֥ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 5 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=DEU_21:9!3|MId=o050210090031|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 5 דָּ֥ם דָּם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 obj _ Gloss=blood|Ref=DEU_21:9!3|MId=o050210090032|Strong=1818 6-7 הַנָּקִ֖י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 7 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=DEU_21:9!4|MId=o050210090041|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 7 נָּקִ֖י נָקִי ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 5 amod _ Gloss=innocent|Ref=DEU_21:9!4|MId=o050210090042|Strong=5355|Type=adjective 8-10 מִקִּרְבֶּ֑ךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=DEU_21:9!5|MId=o050210090051|Strong=4480 9 קִּרְבּ קֶרֶב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 obl _ Gloss=midst|Ref=DEU_21:9!5|MId=o050210090052|Strong=7130 10 ֶ֑ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 9 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=DEU_21:9!5|MId=o050210090053|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 11 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 12 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=DEU_21:9!6|MId=o050210090061|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 12 תַעֲשֶׂ֥ה עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 3 advcl _ Gloss=you.will.do|Ref=DEU_21:9!7|MId=o050210090071|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:050200090112;A1:050210090082;|Type=yiqtol 13-14 הַיָּשָׁ֖ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 14 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=DEU_21:9!8|MId=o050210090081|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 14 יָּשָׁ֖ר יָשָׁר ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 12 obj _ Gloss=right|Ref=DEU_21:9!8|MId=o050210090082|Strong=3477|Type=adjective 15-16 בְּעֵינֵ֥י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=DEU_21:9!9|MId=o050210090091|Strong=0871a 16 עֵינֵ֥י עַיִן NOUN _ Number=Dual 14 nmod _ Gloss=the.eyes|Ref=DEU_21:9!9|MId=o050210090092|Strong=5869 17 יְהוָֽה יהוה PROPN _ _ 16 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=DEU_21:9!10|MId=o050210090101|Strong=3068|SpaceAfter=No 18 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 17 punct _ Ref=DEU_21:9!10|SpaceAfter=No 19 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 17 punct _ Ref=DEU_21:9!10 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | תְּבַעֵר *you will remove* | yiqtol · piel | אַתָּה *you* | דָּם *blood* | | | | תַעֲשֶׂה *you will do* | yiqtol · qal | | יָּשָׁר *right* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
