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 — men, LORD — and what happens in the verse to covenant, men, 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. וְאָ֣מְר֔וּ עַ֚ל אֲשֶׁ֣ר עָֽזְב֔וּ אֶת־בְּרִ֥ית יְהוָ֖ה אֱלֹהֵ֣י אֲבֹתָ֑ם אֲשֶׁר֙ כָּרַ֣ת עִמָּ֔ם בְּהוֹצִיא֥וֹ אֹתָ֖ם מֵאֶ֥רֶץ מִצְרָֽיִם׃ [then men shall say: 'Because they forsook the covenant of the LORD, the God of their fathers, which He made with them when He brought them forth out of the land of Egypt;](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/DEU.830/) ## 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:811 # text = וְאָ֣מְר֔וּ עַ֚ל אֲשֶׁ֣ר עָֽזְב֔וּ אֶת־בְּרִ֥ית יְהוָ֖ה אֱלֹהֵ֣י אֲבֹתָ֑ם אֲשֶׁר֙ כָּרַ֣ת עִמָּ֔ם בְּהוֹצִיא֥וֹ אֹתָ֖ם מֵאֶ֥רֶץ מִצְרָֽיִם׃ # verse = DEU.29.24 1-2 וְאָ֣מְר֔וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_29:24!1|MId=o050290240011|Strong=2050b 2 אָ֣מְר֔וּ אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=people.will.say|Ref=DEU_29:24!1|MId=o050290240012|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:;|Type=weqatal 3 עַ֚ל עַל ADP _ _ 2 ccomp _ Gloss=on|Ref=DEU_29:24!2|MId=o050290240021|Strong=5921 4 אֲשֶׁ֣ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 5 mark _ Gloss=that|Ref=DEU_29:24!3|MId=o050290240031|Strong=0834|Type=relative 5 עָֽזְב֔וּ עָזַב VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 3 parataxis _ Gloss=they.forsook|Ref=DEU_29:24!4|MId=o050290240041|Strong=5800|Frame=A0:050290200061;A1:050290240061;|Type=qatal 6 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=DEU_29:24!5|MId=o050290240051|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 7 בְּרִ֥ית בְּרִית NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 5 obj _ Gloss=the.covenant|Ref=DEU_29:24!6|MId=o050290240061|Strong=1285 8 יְהוָ֖ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 7 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=DEU_29:24!7|MId=o050290240071|Strong=3068 9 אֱלֹהֵ֣י אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 8 appos _ Gloss=the.God|Ref=DEU_29:24!8|MId=o050290240081|Strong=0430 10-11 אֲבֹתָ֑ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 אֲבֹת אָב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 9 compound:smixut _ Gloss=their.ancestors|Ref=DEU_29:24!9|MId=o050290240091|Strong=0001 11 ָ֑ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 10 nmod:poss _ Gloss=their|Ref=DEU_29:24!9|MId=o050290240092|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 12 אֲשֶׁר֙ אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 13 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=DEU_29:24!10|MId=o050290240101|Strong=0834|Type=relative 13 כָּרַ֣ת כָּרַת VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 7 acl:relcl _ Gloss=he.made|Ref=DEU_29:24!11|MId=o050290240111|Strong=3772|Frame=A0:050290240071;A1:050290240061;|Type=qatal 14-15 עִמָּ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 עִמּ עִם ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=DEU_29:24!12|MId=o050290240121|Strong=5973 15 ָ֔ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 13 obl _ Gloss=them|Ref=DEU_29:24!12|MId=o050290240122|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 16-18 בְּהוֹצִיא֥וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=when|Ref=DEU_29:24!13|MId=o050290240131|Strong=0871a 17 הוֹצִיא יָצָא VERB _ HebBinyan=HIPHIL 13 advcl _ Gloss=he|Ref=DEU_29:24!13|MId=o050290240132|Strong=3318|Frame=AA:050290240133;A0:050290240142;|Type=infinitive_construct 18 ֥וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 17 nsubj _ Gloss=brought.out|Ref=DEU_29:24!13|MId=o050290240133|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 19-20 אֹתָ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 אֹת אֵת ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=|Ref=DEU_29:24!14|MId=o050290240141|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 20 ָ֖ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 17 obj _ Gloss=them|Ref=DEU_29:24!14|MId=o050290240142|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 21-22 מֵאֶ֥רֶץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 מֵ מִן ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=DEU_29:24!15|MId=o050290240151|Strong=4480 22 אֶ֥רֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 17 obl _ Gloss=the.land|Ref=DEU_29:24!15|MId=o050290240152|Strong=0776 23 מִצְרָֽיִם מִצְרַיִם PROPN _ _ 22 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Egypt|Ref=DEU_29:24!16|MId=o050290240161|Strong=4714|SpaceAfter=No 24 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 23 punct _ Ref=DEU_29:24!16 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: no - the frame alone: decl · assert · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | אָמְרוּ *people will say* | weqatal · qal | | | | | | עָֽזְבוּ *they forsook* | qatal · qal | | בְּרִית *the covenant* | | | | כָּרַת *he made* | qatal · qal | יְהוָה *of Yahweh* | בְּרִית *the covenant* | | | | הוֹצִיא *he* | infinitive construct · hiphil | ָם *them* | | | וֹ *brought out* | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
