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, thy — and what happens in the verse to plagues, seed, 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. וְהִפְלָ֤א יְהוָה֙ אֶת־מַכֹּ֣תְךָ֔ וְאֵ֖ת מַכּ֣וֹת זַרְעֶ֑ךָ מַכּ֤וֹת גְּדֹלוֹת֙ וְנֶ֣אֱמָנ֔וֹת וָחֳלָיִ֥ם רָעִ֖ים וְנֶאֱמָנִֽים׃ [then the LORD will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed, even great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore sicknesses, and of long continuance.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/DEU.796/) ## 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:777 # text = וְהִפְלָ֤א יְהוָה֙ אֶת־מַכֹּ֣תְךָ֔ וְאֵ֖ת מַכּ֣וֹת זַרְעֶ֑ךָ מַכּ֤וֹת גְּדֹלוֹת֙ וְנֶ֣אֱמָנ֔וֹת וָחֳלָיִ֥ם רָעִ֖ים וְנֶאֱמָנִֽים׃ # verse = DEU.28.59 1-2 וְהִפְלָ֤א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_28:59!1|MId=o050280590011|Strong=2050b 2 הִפְלָ֤א פָּלָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.will.make.extraordinary|Ref=DEU_28:59!1|MId=o050280590012|Strong=6381|Frame=AA:050280590021;A0:050280590041;050280590061;|Type=weqatal 3 יְהוָה֙ יהוה PROPN _ _ 2 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=DEU_28:59!2|MId=o050280590021|Strong=3068 4 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=DEU_28:59!3|MId=o050280590031|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 5-6 מַכֹּ֣תְךָ֔ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 מַכֹּ֣ת מַכָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 2 obj _ Gloss=plagues|Ref=DEU_28:59!4|MId=o050280590041|Strong=4347 6 ְךָ֔ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 5 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=DEU_28:59!4|MId=o050280590042|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 7-8 וְאֵ֖ת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 9 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_28:59!5|MId=o050280590051|Strong=2050b 8 אֵ֖ת אֵת ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=DEU_28:59!5|MId=o050280590052|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 9 מַכּ֣וֹת מַכָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 5 conj _ Gloss=the.plagues|Ref=DEU_28:59!6|MId=o050280590061|Strong=4347 10-11 זַרְעֶ֑ךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 זַרְע זֶרַע NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 compound:smixut _ Gloss=your.offspring|Ref=DEU_28:59!7|MId=o050280590071|Strong=2233 11 ֶ֑ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 10 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=DEU_28:59!7|MId=o050280590072|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 12 מַכּ֤וֹת מַכָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 5 appos _ Gloss=plagues|Ref=DEU_28:59!8|MId=o050280590081|Strong=4347 13 גְּדֹלוֹת֙ גָּדוֹל ADJ _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 12 amod _ Gloss=great|Ref=DEU_28:59!9|MId=o050280590091|Strong=1419|Type=adjective 14-15 וְנֶ֣אֱמָנ֔וֹת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 15 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_28:59!10|MId=o050280590101|Strong=2050b 15 נֶ֣אֱמָנ֔וֹת אָמַן VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Plur 13 conj _ Gloss=lasting|Ref=DEU_28:59!10|MId=o050280590102|Strong=0539|Frame=A0:050280590081;|Type=participle_active 16-17 וָחֳלָיִ֥ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 וָ וְ CCONJ _ _ 17 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_28:59!11|MId=o050280590111|Strong=2050b 17 חֳלָיִ֥ם חֳלִי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 12 conj _ Gloss=sicknesses|Ref=DEU_28:59!11|MId=o050280590112|Strong=2483 18 רָעִ֖ים רַע ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 17 amod _ Gloss=harmful|Ref=DEU_28:59!12|MId=o050280590121|Strong=7451|Type=adjective 19-20 וְנֶאֱמָנִֽים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 20 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_28:59!13|MId=o050280590131|Strong=2050b 20 נֶאֱמָנִֽים אָמַן VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Plur 18 conj _ Gloss=lasting|Ref=DEU_28:59!13|MId=o050280590132|Strong=0539|Frame=A0:050280590112;|Type=participle_active 21 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 20 punct _ Ref=DEU_28:59!13 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | הִפְלָא *he will make extraordinary* | weqatal · hiphil | מַכֹּת *plagues* + מַכּוֹת *the plagues* | | | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | נֶאֱמָנוֹת *lasting* | participle active · niphal | מַכּוֹת *plagues* | | | | | נֶאֱמָנִֽים *lasting* | participle active · niphal | חֳלָיִם *sicknesses* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
