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 — secret things, things, we — and what happens in the verse to things, words, law, 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. הַ֨נִּסְתָּרֹ֔ת לַיהוָ֖ה אֱלֹהֵ֑ינוּ וְהַנִּגְלֹ֞ת לָ֤ׄנׄוּׄוּׄלְׄבָׄנֵׄ֙יׄנׄוּׄ֙עַד־עוֹלָ֔ם לַעֲשׂ֕וֹת אֶת־כָּל־דִּבְרֵ֖י הַתּוֹרָ֥ה הַזֹּֽאת׃ס [The secret things belong unto the LORD our God; but the things that are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/DEU.834/) ## 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:815 # text = הַ֨נִּסְתָּרֹ֔ת לַיהוָ֖ה אֱלֹהֵ֑ינוּ וְהַנִּגְלֹ֞ת לָ֤ׄנׄוּׄוּׄלְׄבָׄנֵׄ֙יׄנׄוּׄ֙עַד־עוֹלָ֔ם לַעֲשׂ֕וֹת אֶת־כָּל־דִּבְרֵ֖י הַתּוֹרָ֥ה הַזֹּֽאת׃ס # verse = DEU.29.28 1-2 הַ֨נִּסְתָּרֹ֔ת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 הַ֨ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 2 det _ Gloss=the.hidden|Ref=DEU_29:28!1|MId=o050290280011|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 2 נִּסְתָּרֹ֔ת סָתַר VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Plur 4 nsubj _ Gloss=[things]|Ref=DEU_29:28!1|MId=o050290280012|Strong=5641|Type=participle_active 3-4 לַיהוָ֖ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 לַ לְ ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=[belong].to|Ref=DEU_29:28!2|MId=o050290280021|Strong=3807a 4 יהוָ֖ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 0 root _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=DEU_29:28!2|MId=o050290280022|Strong=3068 5-6 אֱלֹהֵ֑ינוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 אֱלֹהֵ֑י אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 4 appos _ Gloss=God|Ref=DEU_29:28!3|MId=o050290280031|Strong=0430 6 נוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 5 nmod:poss _ Gloss=our|Ref=DEU_29:28!3|MId=o050290280032|Strong=5105a|Type=pronominal 7-9 וְהַנִּגְלֹ֞ת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 11 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_29:28!4|MId=o050290280041|Strong=2050b 8 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 9 det _ Gloss=the.revealed|Ref=DEU_29:28!4|MId=o050290280042|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 9 נִּגְלֹ֞ת גָּלָה VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Plur 11 nsubj _ Gloss=[things]|Ref=DEU_29:28!4|MId=o050290280043|Strong=1540|Type=participle_active 10-16 לָ֤ׄנׄוּׄוּׄלְׄבָׄנֵׄ֙יׄנׄוּׄ֙עַד־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 ל לְ ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=[belong].to|Ref=DEU_29:28!5|MId=o050290280051|Strong=3807a 11 ָ֤ׄנׄוּׄ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 4 conj _ Gloss=us|Ref=DEU_29:28!5|MId=o050290280052|Strong=5105a|Type=pronominal 12 וּׄ וְ CCONJ _ _ 14 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_29:28!6|MId=o050290280061|Strong=2050b 13 לְׄ לְ ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DEU_29:28!6|MId=o050290280062|Strong=3807a 14 בָׄנֵׄ֙יׄ בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 11 conj _ Gloss=descendants|Ref=DEU_29:28!6|MId=o050290280063|Strong=1121 15 נׄוּׄ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 14 nmod:poss _ Gloss=our|Ref=DEU_29:28!6|MId=o050290280064|Strong=5105a|Type=pronominal 16 עַד־ עַד ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=until|Ref=DEU_29:28!7|MId=o050290280071|Strong=5704 17 עוֹלָ֔ם עוֹלָם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 11 obl _ Gloss=perpetuity|Ref=DEU_29:28!8|MId=o050290280081|Strong=5769 18-19 לַעֲשׂ֕וֹת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 לַ לְ ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DEU_29:28!9|MId=o050290280091|Strong=3807a 19 עֲשׂ֕וֹת עָשָׂה VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 11 advcl _ Gloss=do|Ref=DEU_29:28!9|MId=o050290280092|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:050290200061;050290010021;A1:050290280121;|Type=infinitive_construct 20 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 21 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=DEU_29:28!10|MId=o050290280101|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 21 כָּל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 19 obj _ Gloss=all|Ref=DEU_29:28!11|MId=o050290280111|Strong=3605|SpaceAfter=No 22 דִּבְרֵ֖י דָּבָר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 21 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.words|Ref=DEU_29:28!12|MId=o050290280121|Strong=1697 23-24 הַתּוֹרָ֥ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 24 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=DEU_29:28!13|MId=o050290280131|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 24 תּוֹרָ֥ה תּוֹרָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 22 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.law|Ref=DEU_29:28!13|MId=o050290280132|Strong=8451 25-26 הַזֹּֽאת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 26 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=DEU_29:28!14|MId=o050290280141|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 26 זֹּֽאת זֹאת DET _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|PronType=Dem 24 det _ Gloss=this|Ref=DEU_29:28!14|MId=o050290280142|Strong=2063|Type=demonstrative 27 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=DEU_29:28!14|SpaceAfter=No 28 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=DEU_29:28!14 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: speech with no frame - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | עֲשׂוֹת *do* | infinitive construct · qal | | דִּבְרֵי *the words* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
