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, thou, beasts — and what happens in the verse to nations, thee, 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. וְנָשַׁל֩ יְהוָ֨ה אֱלֹהֶ֜יךָ אֶת־הַגּוֹיִ֥ם הָאֵ֛ל מִפָּנֶ֖יךָ מְעַ֣ט מְעָ֑ט לֹ֤א תוּכַל֙ כַּלֹּתָ֣ם מַהֵ֔ר פֶּן־תִּרְבֶּ֥ה עָלֶ֖יךָ חַיַּ֥ת הַשָּׂדֶֽה׃ [And the LORD thy God will cast out those nations before thee by little and little; thou mayest not consume them quickly, lest the beasts of the field increase upon thee.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/DEU.242/) ## 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:240 # text = וְנָשַׁל֩ יְהוָ֨ה אֱלֹהֶ֜יךָ אֶת־הַגּוֹיִ֥ם הָאֵ֛ל מִפָּנֶ֖יךָ מְעַ֣ט מְעָ֑ט לֹ֤א תוּכַל֙ כַּלֹּתָ֣ם מַהֵ֔ר פֶּן־תִּרְבֶּ֥ה עָלֶ֖יךָ חַיַּ֥ת הַשָּׂדֶֽה׃ # verse = DEU.7.22 1-2 וְנָשַׁל֩ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_7:22!1|MId=o050070220011|Strong=2050b 2 נָשַׁל֩ נָשַׁל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.will.clear.away|Ref=DEU_7:22!1|MId=o050070220012|Strong=5394|Frame=A0:050070220021;A1:050070220052;|Type=weqatal 3 יְהוָ֨ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 2 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=DEU_7:22!2|MId=o050070220021|Strong=3068 4-5 אֱלֹהֶ֜יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 אֱלֹהֶ֜י אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 3 appos _ Gloss=God|Ref=DEU_7:22!3|MId=o050070220031|Strong=0430 5 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 4 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=DEU_7:22!3|MId=o050070220032|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 6 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=DEU_7:22!4|MId=o050070220041|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 7-8 הַגּוֹיִ֥ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 8 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=DEU_7:22!5|MId=o050070220051|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 8 גּוֹיִ֥ם גּוֹי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 2 obj _ Gloss=nations|Ref=DEU_7:22!5|MId=o050070220052|Strong=1471 9-10 הָאֵ֛ל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 10 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=DEU_7:22!6|MId=o050070220061|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 10 אֵ֛ל אֵל DET _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|PronType=Dem 8 det _ Gloss=these|Ref=DEU_7:22!6|MId=o050070220062|Strong=0411|Type=demonstrative 11-13 מִפָּנֶ֖יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=DEU_7:22!7|MId=o050070220071|Strong=4480 12 פָּנֶ֖י פָּנֶה NOUN _ Number=Plur 2 obl _ Gloss=before|Ref=DEU_7:22!7|MId=o050070220072|Strong=6440 13 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 12 nmod:poss _ Gloss=you|Ref=DEU_7:22!7|MId=o050070220073|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 14 מְעַ֣ט מְעַט ADJ _ _ 2 advmod _ Gloss=little|Ref=DEU_7:22!8|MId=o050070220081|Strong=4592 15 מְעָ֑ט מְעַט ADJ _ _ 14 amod _ Gloss=little|Ref=DEU_7:22!9|MId=o050070220091|Strong=4592 16 לֹ֤א לֹא ADV _ _ 17 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=DEU_7:22!10|MId=o050070220101|Strong=3808|Type=negative 17 תוּכַל֙ יָכֹל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 2 parataxis _ Gloss=you.will.be.able|Ref=DEU_7:22!11|MId=o050070220111|Strong=3201|Frame=A0:050060040021;A1:050070220121;|Type=yiqtol 18-19 כַּלֹּתָ֣ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 כַּלֹּת כָּלָה VERB _ HebBinyan=PIEL 17 ccomp _ Gloss=to|Ref=DEU_7:22!12|MId=o050070220121|Strong=3615|Frame=A0:050060040021;A1:050070220122;|Type=infinitive_construct 19 ָ֣ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 18 obj _ Gloss=make.an.end.of.them|Ref=DEU_7:22!12|MId=o050070220122|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 20 מַהֵ֔ר מַהֵר VERB _ HebBinyan=PIEL 18 obl:npmod _ Gloss=quickly|Ref=DEU_7:22!13|MId=o050070220131|Strong=4118|Type=infinitive_absolute 21 פֶּן־ פֶּן SCONJ _ _ 22 mark _ Gloss=lest|Ref=DEU_7:22!14|MId=o050070220141|Strong=6435|SpaceAfter=No 22 תִּרְבֶּ֥ה רָבָה VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 advcl _ Gloss=it.should.increase|Ref=DEU_7:22!15|MId=o050070220151|Strong=7235|Frame=A0:050070220171;|Type=yiqtol 23-24 עָלֶ֖יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 עָלֶ֖י עַל ADP _ _ 24 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=DEU_7:22!16|MId=o050070220161|Strong=5921 24 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 22 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=DEU_7:22!16|MId=o050070220162|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 25 חַיַּ֥ת חַיָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 22 nsubj _ Gloss=the.animal[s]|Ref=DEU_7:22!17|MId=o050070220171|Strong=2416c 26-27 הַשָּׂדֶֽה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 27 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=DEU_7:22!18|MId=o050070220181|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 27 שָּׂדֶֽה שָׂדֶה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 25 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.field|Ref=DEU_7:22!18|MId=o050070220182|Strong=7704 28 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 27 punct _ Ref=DEU_7:22!18 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: yes | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | נָשַׁל *he will clear away* | weqatal · qal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | גּוֹיִם *nations* | | | | **not** תוּכַל *you will be able* | yiqtol · qal | | כַּלֹּת *to* | | | | כַּלֹּת *to* | infinitive construct · piel | | ָם *make an end of them* | | | | תִּרְבֶּה *it should increase* | yiqtol · qal | חַיַּת *the animal\[s\]* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
