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 — king, same, Horites — and what happens in the verse to Zoar, battle, array, 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 50 chapters of Genesis on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וַיֵּצֵ֨א מֶֽלֶךְ־סְדֹ֜ם וּמֶ֣לֶךְ עֲמֹרָ֗ה וּמֶ֤לֶךְ אַדְמָה֙ וּמֶ֣לֶךְ צְבוֹיִ֔ם וּמֶ֥לֶךְ בֶּ֖לַע הִוא־צֹ֑עַר וַיַּֽעַרְכ֤וּ אִתָּם֙ מִלְחָמָ֔ה בְּעֵ֖מֶק הַשִּׂדִּֽים׃ [And there went out the king of Sodom, and the king of Gomorrah, and the king of Admah, and the king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela — the same is Zoar; and they set the battle in array against them in the vale of Siddim;](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.360/) ## 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:GEN:344 # text = וַיֵּצֵ֨א מֶֽלֶךְ־סְדֹ֜ם וּמֶ֣לֶךְ עֲמֹרָ֗ה וּמֶ֤לֶךְ אַדְמָה֙ וּמֶ֣לֶךְ צְבוֹיִ֔ם וּמֶ֥לֶךְ בֶּ֖לַע הִוא־צֹ֑עַר וַיַּֽעַרְכ֤וּ אִתָּם֙ מִלְחָמָ֔ה בְּעֵ֖מֶק הַשִּׂדִּֽים׃ # verse = GEN.14.8 1-2 וַיֵּצֵ֨א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_14:8!1|MId=o010140080011|Strong=2050b 2 יֵּצֵ֨א יָצָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.went.out|Ref=GEN_14:8!1|MId=o010140080012|Strong=3318|Frame=A0:010140080021;010140080042;010140080062;010140080082;010140080112;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 מֶֽלֶךְ־ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 nsubj _ Gloss=the.king|Ref=GEN_14:8!2|MId=o010140080021|Strong=4428|SpaceAfter=No 4 סְדֹ֜ם סְדֹם PROPN _ _ 3 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Sodom|Ref=GEN_14:8!3|MId=o010140080031|Strong=5467 5-6 וּמֶ֣לֶךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 6 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_14:8!4|MId=o010140080041|Strong=2050b 6 מֶ֣לֶךְ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 conj _ Gloss=the.king|Ref=GEN_14:8!4|MId=o010140080042|Strong=4428 7 עֲמֹרָ֗ה עֲמֹרָה PROPN _ _ 6 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Gomorrah|Ref=GEN_14:8!5|MId=o010140080051|Strong=6017 8-9 וּמֶ֤לֶךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 9 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_14:8!6|MId=o010140080061|Strong=2050b 9 מֶ֤לֶךְ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 conj _ Gloss=the.king|Ref=GEN_14:8!6|MId=o010140080062|Strong=4428 10 אַדְמָה֙ אַדְמָה PROPN _ _ 9 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Admah|Ref=GEN_14:8!7|MId=o010140080071|Strong=0126 11-12 וּמֶ֣לֶךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 12 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_14:8!8|MId=o010140080081|Strong=2050b 12 מֶ֣לֶךְ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 conj _ Gloss=the.king|Ref=GEN_14:8!8|MId=o010140080082|Strong=4428 13 צְבוֹיִ֔ם צְבֹאיִם PROPN _ _ 12 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Zeboiim|Ref=GEN_14:8!10|MId=o010140080101|Strong=6636 14-15 וּמֶ֥לֶךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 15 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_14:8!11|MId=o010140080111|Strong=2050b 15 מֶ֥לֶךְ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 conj _ Gloss=the.king|Ref=GEN_14:8!11|MId=o010140080112|Strong=4428 16 בֶּ֖לַע בֶּלַע PROPN _ _ 15 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Bela|Ref=GEN_14:8!12|MId=o010140080121|Strong=1106a 17 הִוא־ הִיא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 18 nsubj _ Gloss=that|Ref=GEN_14:8!13|MId=o010140080131|Strong=1931a|Type=personal|SpaceAfter=No 18 צֹ֑עַר צֹעַר PROPN _ _ 16 acl _ Gloss=[is].Zoar|Ref=GEN_14:8!14|MId=o010140080141|Strong=6820 19-20 וַיַּֽעַרְכ֤וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 20 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_14:8!15|MId=o010140080151|Strong=2050b 20 יַּֽעַרְכ֤וּ עָרַךְ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=they.deployed|Ref=GEN_14:8!15|MId=o010140080152|Strong=6186|Frame=A0:010140080021;010140080042;010140080062;010140080082;010140080112;A1:010140080171;|Type=wayyiqtol 21-22 אִתָּם֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 אִתּ אֵת ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=GEN_14:8!16|MId=o010140080161|Strong=0854 22 ָם֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 20 obl _ Gloss=them|Ref=GEN_14:8!16|MId=o010140080162|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 23 מִלְחָמָ֔ה מִלְחָמָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 20 obj _ Gloss=battle|Ref=GEN_14:8!17|MId=o010140080171|Strong=4421 24-25 בְּעֵ֖מֶק _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 25 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=GEN_14:8!18|MId=o010140080181|Strong=0871a 25 עֵ֖מֶק עֵמֶק NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 20 obl _ Gloss=the.valley|Ref=GEN_14:8!18|MId=o010140080182|Strong=6010 26-27 הַשִּׂדִּֽים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 27 det _ Gloss=of.(the)|Ref=GEN_14:8!19|MId=o010140080191|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 27 שִּׂדִּֽים שִׂדִּים PROPN _ _ 25 compound:smixut _ Gloss=Siddim|Ref=GEN_14:8!19|MId=o010140080192|Strong=7708 28 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 27 punct _ Ref=GEN_14:8!19 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: narrate - voice: narrator - speech: narration - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יֵּצֵא *he went out* | wayyiqtol · qal | מֶֽלֶךְ־ *the king* + מֶלֶךְ *the king* + מֶלֶךְ *the king* + מֶלֶךְ *the king* + מֶלֶךְ *the king* | | | | | יַּֽעַרְכוּ *they deployed* | wayyiqtol · qal | מֶֽלֶךְ־ *the king* + מֶלֶךְ *the king* + מֶלֶךְ *the king* + מֶלֶךְ *the king* + מֶלֶךְ *the king* | מִלְחָמָה *battle* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
