Deuteronomy 33:29 in Hebrew --- [Mova](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) · [this page in HTML](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/DEU.33.29/) [home](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) / [corpora](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/) / [Tanakh](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/tanakh/) / [Torah](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/) / [Deuteronomy](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/DEU/) / [chapter 33](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/DEU/33/) / 33:29 # Deuteronomy 33:29 דְּבָרִים **Who acts:** thou, that, thy, enemies · **What happens:** be, save, help, dwindle away, tread · **To what, where:** people, sword, high places This is Deuteronomy 33:29 from Mova's open Bible corpus, the Tanakh in three languages (The Torah). 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, that, thy, enemies — and what happens in the verse to people, sword, high places, 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. אַשְׁרֶ֨יךָ יִשְׂרָאֵ֜ל מִ֣י כָמ֗וֹךָ עַ֚ם נוֹשַׁ֣ע בַּֽיהוָ֔ה מָגֵ֣ן עֶזְרֶ֔ךָ וַאֲשֶׁר־חֶ֖רֶב גַּאֲוָתֶ֑ךָ וְיִכָּֽחֲשׁ֤וּ אֹיְבֶ֙יךָ֙ לָ֔ךְ וְאַתָּ֖ה עַל־בָּמוֹתֵ֥ימוֹ תִדְרֹֽךְ׃ס [Happy art thou, O Israel, who is like unto thee? a people saved by the LORD, the shield of thy help, and that is the sword of thy excellency!](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/DEU.966/) [And thine enemies shall dwindle away before thee; and thou shalt tread upon their high places.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/DEU.967/) ## 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:946 # text = אַשְׁרֶ֨יךָ יִשְׂרָאֵ֜ל מִ֣י כָמ֗וֹךָ עַ֚ם נוֹשַׁ֣ע בַּֽיהוָ֔ה מָגֵ֣ן עֶזְרֶ֔ךָ וַאֲשֶׁר־חֶ֖רֶב גַּאֲוָתֶ֑ךָ וְיִכָּֽחֲשׁ֤וּ אֹיְבֶ֙יךָ֙ לָ֔ךְ וְאַתָּ֖ה עַל־בָּמוֹתֵ֥ימוֹ תִדְרֹֽךְ׃ס # verse = DEU.33.29 1-2 אַשְׁרֶ֨יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 אַשְׁרֶ֨י אֶשֶׁר INTJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 0 root _ Gloss=how|Ref=DEU_33:29!1|MId=o050330290011|Strong=0835a 2 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 1 nsubj _ Gloss=blessed.[are].you!|Ref=DEU_33:29!1|MId=o050330290012|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 3 יִשְׂרָאֵ֜ל יִשְׂרָאֵל PROPN _ _ 1 parataxis _ Gloss=O.Israel|Ref=DEU_33:29!2|MId=o050330290021|Strong=3478 4 מִ֣י מִי PRON _ PronType=Int 6 nsubj _ Gloss=who?|Ref=DEU_33:29!3|MId=o050330290031|Strong=4310|Type=interrogative 5-6 כָמ֗וֹךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 כָמ֗וֹ כְּמוֹ ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=[is].like|Ref=DEU_33:29!4|MId=o050330290041|Strong=3644 6 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 1 parataxis _ Gloss=you|Ref=DEU_33:29!4|MId=o050330290042|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 7 עַ֚ם עַם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 parataxis _ Gloss=a.people|Ref=DEU_33:29!5|MId=o050330290051|Strong=5971 8 נוֹשַׁ֣ע יָשַׁע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 7 acl _ Gloss=[which].it.has.been.saved|Ref=DEU_33:29!6|MId=o050330290061|Strong=3467|Frame=A1:050330290051;|Type=qatal 9-10 בַּֽיהוָ֔ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 בַּֽ בְּ ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=by|Ref=DEU_33:29!7|MId=o050330290071|Strong=0871a 10 יהוָ֔ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 8 obl _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=DEU_33:29!7|MId=o050330290072|Strong=3068 11 מָגֵ֣ן מָגֵן NOUN _ Number=Sing 10 appos _ Gloss=the.shield|Ref=DEU_33:29!8|MId=o050330290081|Strong=4043 12-13 עֶזְרֶ֔ךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 עֶזְר עֵזֶר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 11 compound:smixut _ Gloss=your.help|Ref=DEU_33:29!9|MId=o050330290091|Strong=5828 13 ֶ֔ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 12 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=DEU_33:29!9|MId=o050330290092|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 14-15 וַאֲשֶׁר־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 16 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_33:29!10|MId=o050330290101|Strong=2050b 15 אֲשֶׁר־ אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 16 mark _ Gloss=who|Ref=DEU_33:29!10|MId=o050330290102|Strong=0834|Type=relative 16 חֶ֖רֶב חֶרֶב NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 11 conj _ Gloss=[is].the.sword|Ref=DEU_33:29!11|MId=o050330290111|Strong=2719 17-18 גַּאֲוָתֶ֑ךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 גַּאֲוָת גַּאֲוָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 16 compound:smixut _ Gloss=your.eminence|Ref=DEU_33:29!12|MId=o050330290121|Strong=1346 18 ֶ֑ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 17 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=DEU_33:29!12|MId=o050330290122|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 19-20 וְיִכָּֽחֲשׁ֤וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 20 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_33:29!13|MId=o050330290131|Strong=2050b 20 יִכָּֽחֲשׁ֤וּ כָּחַשׁ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 1 conj _ Gloss=they.will.cringe|Ref=DEU_33:29!13|MId=o050330290132|Strong=3584|Frame=A0:050330290141;|Type=yiqtol 21-22 אֹיְבֶ֙יךָ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 אֹיְבֶ֙י אָיַב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur 20 nsubj _ Gloss=enemies|Ref=DEU_33:29!14|MId=o050330290141|Strong=0341|Type=participle_active 22 ךָ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 21 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=DEU_33:29!14|MId=o050330290142|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 23-24 לָ֔ךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 ל לְ ADP _ _ 24 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DEU_33:29!15|MId=o050330290151|Strong=3807a 24 ָ֔ךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 20 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=DEU_33:29!15|MId=o050330290152|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 25-26 וְאַתָּ֖ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 30 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_33:29!16|MId=o050330290161|Strong=2050b 26 אַתָּ֖ה אַתָּה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 30 nsubj _ Gloss=you|Ref=DEU_33:29!16|MId=o050330290162|Strong=0859|Type=personal 27 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 28 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=DEU_33:29!17|MId=o050330290171|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 28-29 בָּמוֹתֵ֥ימוֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 28 בָּמוֹתֵ֥י בָּמָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 30 obl _ Gloss=places|Ref=DEU_33:29!18|MId=o050330290181|Strong=1116 29 מוֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 28 nmod:poss _ Gloss=their.high|Ref=DEU_33:29!18|MId=o050330290182|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 30 תִדְרֹֽךְ דָּרַךְ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 1 conj _ Gloss=you.will.tread|Ref=DEU_33:29!19|MId=o050330290191|Strong=1869|Frame=A0:050330290162;|Type=yiqtol|SpaceAfter=No 31 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 30 punct _ Ref=DEU_33:29!19|SpaceAfter=No 32 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 30 punct _ Ref=DEU_33:29!19 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
