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 — firstling bullock, horns, blessing — and what happens in the verse to blessing, horns, peoples, ten thousands, thousands, 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. בְּכ֨וֹר שׁוֹר֜וֹ הָדָ֣ר ל֗וֹ וְקַרְנֵ֤י רְאֵם֙ קַרְנָ֔יו בָּהֶ֗ם עַמִּ֛ים יְנַגַּ֥ח יַחְדָּ֖ו אַפְסֵי־אָ֑רֶץ וְהֵם֙ רִבְב֣וֹת אֶפְרַ֔יִם וְהֵ֖ם אַלְפֵ֥י מְנַשֶּֽׁה׃ס [His firstling bullock, majesty is his; and his horns are the horns of the wild-ox; with them he shall gore the peoples all of them, even the ends of the earth; and they are the ten thousands of Ephraim, and they are the thousands of Manasseh.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/DEU.954/) ## 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:934 # text = בְּכ֨וֹר שׁוֹר֜וֹ הָדָ֣ר ל֗וֹ וְקַרְנֵ֤י רְאֵם֙ קַרְנָ֔יו בָּהֶ֗ם עַמִּ֛ים יְנַגַּ֥ח יַחְדָּ֖ו אַפְסֵי־אָ֑רֶץ וְהֵם֙ רִבְב֣וֹת אֶפְרַ֔יִם וְהֵ֖ם אַלְפֵ֥י מְנַשֶּֽׁה׃ס # verse = DEU.33.17 1 בְּכ֨וֹר בְּכֹר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 dislocated _ Gloss=the.firstborn|Ref=DEU_33:17!1|MId=o050330170011|Strong=1060 2-3 שׁוֹר֜וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 2 שׁוֹר שׁוֹר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 1 compound:smixut _ Gloss=his.ox|Ref=DEU_33:17!2|MId=o050330170021|Strong=7794 3 ֜וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 2 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=DEU_33:17!2|MId=o050330170022|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 4 הָדָ֣ר הָדָר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 nsubj _ Gloss=splendor|Ref=DEU_33:17!3|MId=o050330170031|Strong=1926 5-6 ל֗וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 ל לְ ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=[belongs].to|Ref=DEU_33:17!4|MId=o050330170041|Strong=3807a 6 ֗וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 0 root _ Gloss=him|Ref=DEU_33:17!4|MId=o050330170042|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 7-8 וְקַרְנֵ֤י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 8 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_33:17!5|MId=o050330170051|Strong=2050b 8 קַרְנֵ֤י קֶרֶן NOUN _ Number=Dual 6 conj _ Gloss=[are.the].horns|Ref=DEU_33:17!5|MId=o050330170052|Strong=7161 9 רְאֵם֙ רְאֵם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.a.wild.ox|Ref=DEU_33:17!6|MId=o050330170061|Strong=7214 10-11 קַרְנָ֔יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 קַרְנָ֔י קֶרֶן NOUN _ Number=Dual 8 nsubj _ Gloss=horns|Ref=DEU_33:17!7|MId=o050330170071|Strong=7161 11 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 10 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=DEU_33:17!7|MId=o050330170072|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 12-13 בָּהֶ֗ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 בּ בְּ ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=DEU_33:17!8|MId=o050330170081|Strong=0871a 13 ָהֶ֗ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 15 obl _ Gloss=them|Ref=DEU_33:17!8|MId=o050330170082|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 14 עַמִּ֛ים עַם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 15 obj _ Gloss=peoples|Ref=DEU_33:17!9|MId=o050330170091|Strong=5971 15 יְנַגַּ֥ח נָגַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=3 6 parataxis _ Gloss=he.will.gore|Ref=DEU_33:17!10|MId=o050330170101|Strong=5055|Frame=A0:050330170011;A1:050330170091;|Type=yiqtol 16 יַחְדָּ֖ו יָחְדָּו ADV _ _ 15 advmod _ Gloss=together|Ref=DEU_33:17!11|MId=o050330170111|Strong=3162a 17 אַפְסֵי־ אֶפֶס NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 15 obl _ Gloss=[the].ends|Ref=DEU_33:17!12|MId=o050330170121|Strong=0657|SpaceAfter=No 18 אָ֑רֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 17 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.[the].earth|Ref=DEU_33:17!13|MId=o050330170131|Strong=0776 19-20 וְהֵם֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 21 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_33:17!14|MId=o050330170141|Strong=2050b 20 הֵם֙ הֵם PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 21 nsubj _ Gloss=they|Ref=DEU_33:17!14|MId=o050330170142|Strong=1992|Type=personal 21 רִבְב֣וֹת רְבָבָה NUM _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 6 conj _ Gloss=[are].the.ten.thousands|Ref=DEU_33:17!15|MId=o050330170151|Strong=7233 22 אֶפְרַ֔יִם אֶפְרַיִם PROPN _ _ 21 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Ephraim|Ref=DEU_33:17!16|MId=o050330170161|Strong=0669 23-24 וְהֵ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 25 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_33:17!17|MId=o050330170171|Strong=2050b 24 הֵ֖ם הֵם PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 25 nsubj _ Gloss=they|Ref=DEU_33:17!17|MId=o050330170172|Strong=1992|Type=personal 25 אַלְפֵ֥י אֶלֶף NOUN _ Number=Plur 6 conj _ Gloss=[are].the.thousands|Ref=DEU_33:17!18|MId=o050330170181|Strong=0505a|Type=cardinal_number 26 מְנַשֶּֽׁה מְנַשֶּׁה PROPN _ _ 25 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Manasseh|Ref=DEU_33:17!19|MId=o050330170191|Strong=4519|SpaceAfter=No 27 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=DEU_33:17!19|SpaceAfter=No 28 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=DEU_33:17!19 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יְנַגַּח *he will gore* | yiqtol · piel | בְּכוֹר *the firstborn* | עַמִּים *peoples* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
