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 — ox, owner, dead beast — and what happens in the verse to ox, 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 40 chapters of Exodus on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. א֣וֹ נוֹדַ֗ע כִּ֠י שׁ֣וֹר נַגָּ֥ח הוּא֙ מִתְּמ֣וֹל שִׁלְשֹׁ֔ם וְלֹ֥א יִשְׁמְרֶ֖נּוּ בְּעָלָ֑יו שַׁלֵּ֨ם יְשַׁלֵּ֥ם שׁוֹר֙ תַּ֣חַת הַשּׁ֔וֹר וְהַמֵּ֖ת יִֽהְיֶה־לּֽוֹ׃ס [Or if it be known that the ox was wont to gore in time past, and its owner hath not kept it in; he shall surely pay ox for ox, and the dead beast shall be his own.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/EXO.615/) ## 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:EXO:580 # text = א֣וֹ נוֹדַ֗ע כִּ֠י שׁ֣וֹר נַגָּ֥ח הוּא֙ מִתְּמ֣וֹל שִׁלְשֹׁ֔ם וְלֹ֥א יִשְׁמְרֶ֖נּוּ בְּעָלָ֑יו שַׁלֵּ֨ם יְשַׁלֵּ֥ם שׁוֹר֙ תַּ֣חַת הַשּׁ֔וֹר וְהַמֵּ֖ת יִֽהְיֶה־לּֽוֹ׃ס # verse = EXO.21.36 1 א֣וֹ אוֹ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=or|Ref=EXO_21:36!1|MId=o020210360011|Strong=0176 2 נוֹדַ֗ע יָדַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=it.is.known|Ref=EXO_21:36!2|MId=o020210360021|Strong=3045|Frame=A1:020210360051;020210360101;|Type=qatal 3 כִּ֠י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 4 mark _ Gloss=(dm).that|Ref=EXO_21:36!3|MId=o020210360031|Strong=3588 4 שׁ֣וֹר שׁוֹר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 nsubj _ Gloss=[is].an.ox|Ref=EXO_21:36!4|MId=o020210360041|Strong=7794 5 נַגָּ֥ח נַגָּח ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 4 parataxis _ Gloss=prone.to.gore|Ref=EXO_21:36!5|MId=o020210360051|Strong=5056|Type=adjective 6 הוּא֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 5 nsubj _ Gloss=it|Ref=EXO_21:36!6|MId=o020210360061|Strong=1931|Type=personal 7-8 מִתְּמ֣וֹל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=EXO_21:36!7|MId=o020210360071|Strong=4480 8 תְּמ֣וֹל תְּמוֹל ADV _ _ 5 obl _ Gloss=yesterday|Ref=EXO_21:36!7|MId=o020210360072|Strong=8543 9 שִׁלְשֹׁ֔ם שִׁלְשֹׁום ADV _ _ 8 advmod _ Gloss=three.days.ago|Ref=EXO_21:36!8|MId=o020210360081|Strong=8032 10-11 וְלֹ֥א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 12 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_21:36!9|MId=o020210360091|Strong=2050b 11 לֹ֥א לֹא ADV _ _ 12 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=EXO_21:36!9|MId=o020210360092|Strong=3808|Type=negative 12-13 יִשְׁמְרֶ֖נּוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 יִשְׁמְר שָׁמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 5 conj _ Gloss=he|Ref=EXO_21:36!10|MId=o020210360101|Strong=8104|Frame=A1:020210360102;A0:020210360111;|Type=yiqtol 13 ֶ֖נּוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 12 obj _ Gloss=guarded.it|Ref=EXO_21:36!10|MId=o020210360102|Strong=5105b|Type=pronominal 14-15 בְּעָלָ֑יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 בְּעָלָ֑י בַּעַל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 12 nsubj _ Gloss=owner(s)|Ref=EXO_21:36!11|MId=o020210360111|Strong=1167 15 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 14 nmod:poss _ Gloss=its|Ref=EXO_21:36!11|MId=o020210360112|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 16 שַׁלֵּ֨ם שָׁלֵם VERB _ HebBinyan=PIEL 17 obl:npmod _ Gloss=certainly.(make.compensation)|Ref=EXO_21:36!12|MId=o020210360121|Strong=7999|Type=infinitive_absolute 17 יְשַׁלֵּ֥ם שָׁלֵם VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 parataxis _ Gloss=he.will.make.compensation|Ref=EXO_21:36!13|MId=o020210360131|Strong=7999|Frame=A0:020210360111;A1:020210360141;|Type=yiqtol 18 שׁוֹר֙ שׁוֹר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 17 obj _ Gloss=an.ox|Ref=EXO_21:36!14|MId=o020210360141|Strong=7794 19 תַּ֣חַת תַּחַת NOUN _ _ 17 obl _ Gloss=in.place.of|Ref=EXO_21:36!15|MId=o020210360151|Strong=8478 20-21 הַשּׁ֔וֹר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 21 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EXO_21:36!16|MId=o020210360161|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 21 שּׁ֔וֹר שׁוֹר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 19 compound:smixut _ Gloss=ox|Ref=EXO_21:36!16|MId=o020210360162|Strong=7794 22-24 וְהַמֵּ֖ת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 27 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_21:36!17|MId=o020210360171|Strong=2050b 23 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 24 det _ Gloss=the.dead|Ref=EXO_21:36!17|MId=o020210360172|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 24 מֵּ֖ת מוּת VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 27 nsubj _ Gloss=[animal]|Ref=EXO_21:36!17|MId=o020210360173|Strong=4191|Frame=A0:020210360162;|Type=participle_active 25 יִֽהְיֶה־ הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 27 cop _ Gloss=it.will.belong|Ref=EXO_21:36!18|MId=o020210360181|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:020210360173;|Type=yiqtol|SpaceAfter=No 26-27 לּֽוֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 לּ לְ ADP _ _ 27 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EXO_21:36!19|MId=o020210360191|Strong=3807a 27 ֽוֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 2 conj _ Gloss=him|Ref=EXO_21:36!19|MId=o020210360192|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 28 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 27 punct _ Ref=EXO_21:36!19|SpaceAfter=No 29 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 27 punct _ Ref=EXO_21:36!19 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: narrator - speech: narration - negation: yes | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | נוֹדַע *it is known* | qatal · niphal | | נַגָּח *prone to gore* + יִשְׁמְר *he* | | | | **not** יִשְׁמְר *he* | yiqtol · qal | בְּעָלָי *owner(s)* | ֶנּוּ *guarded it* | | | | יְשַׁלֵּם *he will make compensation* | yiqtol · piel | בְּעָלָי *owner(s)* | שׁוֹר *an ox* | | | | מֵּת *\[animal\]* | participle active · qal | שּׁוֹר *ox* | | | | | יִֽהְיֶה־ *it will belong* | yiqtol · qal | מֵּת *\[animal\]* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
