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 — angel, I — and what happens in the verse to thee, Canaanite, 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. כִּֽי־יֵלֵ֣ךְ מַלְאָכִי֮ לְפָנֶיךָ֒ וֶהֱבִֽיאֲךָ֗ אֶל־הָֽאֱמֹרִי֙ וְהַ֣חִתִּ֔י וְהַפְּרִזִּי֙ וְהַֽכְּנַעֲנִ֔י הַחִוִּ֖י וְהַיְבוּסִ֑י וְהִכְחַדְתִּֽיו׃ [For Mine angel shall go before thee, and bring thee in unto the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Canaanite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite; and I will cut them off.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/EXO.672/) ## 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:634 # text = כִּֽי־יֵלֵ֣ךְ מַלְאָכִי֮ לְפָנֶיךָ֒ וֶהֱבִֽיאֲךָ֗ אֶל־הָֽאֱמֹרִי֙ וְהַ֣חִתִּ֔י וְהַפְּרִזִּי֙ וְהַֽכְּנַעֲנִ֔י הַחִוִּ֖י וְהַיְבוּסִ֑י וְהִכְחַדְתִּֽיו׃ # verse = EXO.23.23 1 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 2 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=EXO_23:23!1|MId=o020230230011|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 2 יֵלֵ֣ךְ הלך VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.will.go|Ref=EXO_23:23!2|MId=o020230230021|Strong=1980|Frame=A0:020230230031;|Type=yiqtol 3-4 מַלְאָכִי֮ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 מַלְאָכ מַלְאָךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 nsubj _ Gloss=angel|Ref=EXO_23:23!3|MId=o020230230031|Strong=4397 4 ִי֮ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 3 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=EXO_23:23!3|MId=o020230230032|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 5-7 לְפָנֶיךָ֒ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=before|Ref=EXO_23:23!4|MId=o020230230041|Strong=3807a 6 פָנֶי פָּנֶה NOUN _ Number=Plur 2 obl _ Gloss=|Ref=EXO_23:23!4|MId=o020230230042|Strong=6440 7 ךָ֒ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 6 nmod:poss _ Gloss=you|Ref=EXO_23:23!4|MId=o020230230043|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 8-10 וֶהֱבִֽיאֲךָ֗ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 וֶ וְ CCONJ _ _ 9 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_23:23!5|MId=o020230230051|Strong=2050b 9 הֱבִֽיא בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he|Ref=EXO_23:23!5|MId=o020230230052|Strong=0935|Frame=AA:020230230031;A0:020230230053;|Type=weqatal 10 ֲךָ֗ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 9 obj _ Gloss=will.bring.you|Ref=EXO_23:23!5|MId=o020230230053|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 11 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EXO_23:23!6|MId=o020230230061|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 12-13 הָֽאֱמֹרִי֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 הָֽ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 13 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EXO_23:23!7|MId=o020230230071|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 13 אֱמֹרִי֙ אֱמֹרִי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 obl _ Gloss=Amorite[s]|Ref=EXO_23:23!7|MId=o020230230072|Strong=0567|Type=gentilic 14-16 וְהַ֣חִתִּ֔י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 16 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_23:23!8|MId=o020230230081|Strong=2050b 15 הַ֣ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 16 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EXO_23:23!8|MId=o020230230082|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 16 חִתִּ֔י חִתִּי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 13 conj _ Gloss=Hittite[s]|Ref=EXO_23:23!8|MId=o020230230083|Strong=2850|Type=gentilic 17-19 וְהַפְּרִזִּי֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 19 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_23:23!9|MId=o020230230091|Strong=2050b 18 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 19 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EXO_23:23!9|MId=o020230230092|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 19 פְּרִזִּי֙ פְּרִזִּי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 13 conj _ Gloss=Perizzite[s]|Ref=EXO_23:23!9|MId=o020230230093|Strong=6522|Type=gentilic 20-22 וְהַֽכְּנַעֲנִ֔י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 22 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_23:23!10|MId=o020230230101|Strong=2050b 21 הַֽ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 22 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EXO_23:23!10|MId=o020230230102|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 22 כְּנַעֲנִ֔י כְּנַעֲנִי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 13 conj _ Gloss=Canaanite[s]|Ref=EXO_23:23!10|MId=o020230230103|Strong=3669|Type=gentilic 23-24 הַחִוִּ֖י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 24 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EXO_23:23!11|MId=o020230230111|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 24 חִוִּ֖י חִוִּי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 13 conj _ Gloss=Hivite[s]|Ref=EXO_23:23!11|MId=o020230230112|Strong=2340|Type=gentilic 25-27 וְהַיְבוּסִ֑י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 27 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_23:23!12|MId=o020230230121|Strong=2050b 26 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 27 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EXO_23:23!12|MId=o020230230122|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 27 יְבוּסִ֑י יְבוּסִי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 13 conj _ Gloss=Jebusite[s]|Ref=EXO_23:23!12|MId=o020230230123|Strong=2983|Type=gentilic 28-30 וְהִכְחַדְתִּֽיו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 28 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 29 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_23:23!13|MId=o020230230131|Strong=2050b 29 הִכְחַדְתִּֽי כָּחַד VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=1 2 conj _ Gloss=I|Ref=EXO_23:23!13|MId=o020230230132|Strong=3582|Frame=AA:020230190061;A0:020230230133;|Type=weqatal 30 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 29 obj _ Gloss=will.annihilate.it|Ref=EXO_23:23!13|MId=o020230230133|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 31 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 30 punct _ Ref=EXO_23:23!13 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יֵלֵךְ *he will go* | yiqtol · qal | מַלְאָכ *angel* | | | | | הֱבִֽיא *he* | weqatal · hiphil | ֲךָ *will bring you* | | | מַלְאָכ *angel* | | הִכְחַדְתִּֽי *I* | weqatal · hiphil | ו *will annihilate it* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
