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 — Lot, I, ye, feet, we — and what happens in the verse to you, house, feet, way, broad place, 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. וַיֹּ֜אמֶר הִנֶּ֣ה נָּא־אֲדֹנַ֗י ס֣וּרוּ נָ֠א אֶל־בֵּ֨ית עַבְדְּכֶ֤ם וְלִ֙ינוּ֙ וְרַחֲצ֣וּ רַגְלֵיכֶ֔ם וְהִשְׁכַּמְתֶּ֖ם וַהֲלַכְתֶּ֣םלְדַרְכְּכֶ֑ם וַיֹּאמְר֣וּ לֹּ֔א כִּ֥י בָרְח֖וֹב נָלִֽין׃ [and he said: 'Behold now, my lords, turn aside, I pray you, into your servant's house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and ye shall rise up early, and go on your way.'

Under each word its part of speech and MACULA's English gloss. ```conllu rtl gloss # sent_id = wlc:GEN:459 # text = וַיֹּ֜אמֶר הִנֶּ֣ה נָּא־אֲדֹנַ֗י ס֣וּרוּ נָ֠א אֶל־בֵּ֨ית עַבְדְּכֶ֤ם וְלִ֙ינוּ֙ וְרַחֲצ֣וּ רַגְלֵיכֶ֔ם וְהִשְׁכַּמְתֶּ֖ם וַהֲלַכְתֶּ֣םלְדַרְכְּכֶ֑ם וַיֹּאמְר֣וּ לֹּ֔א כִּ֥י בָרְח֖וֹב נָלִֽין׃ # verse = GEN.19.2 1-2 וַיֹּ֜אמֶר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_19:2!1|MId=o010190020011|Strong=2050b 2 יֹּ֜אמֶר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.said|Ref=GEN_19:2!1|MId=o010190020012|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:010190010111;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 הִנֶּ֣ה הִנֵּה INTJ _ _ 7 parataxis _ Gloss=here!|Ref=GEN_19:2!2|MId=o010190020021|Strong=2009|Type=demonstrative 4 נָּא־ נָא INTJ _ _ 3 discourse _ Gloss=please|Ref=GEN_19:2!3|MId=o010190020031|Strong=4994|Type=interjection|SpaceAfter=No 5-6 אֲדֹנַ֗י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 אֲדֹנ אָדוֹן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 7 dislocated _ Gloss=my.lords|Ref=GEN_19:2!4|MId=o010190020041|Strong=0113 6 ַ֗י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 5 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=GEN_19:2!4|MId=o010190020042|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 7 ס֣וּרוּ סוּר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 2 ccomp _ Gloss=turn.aside|Ref=GEN_19:2!5|MId=o010190020051|Strong=5493|Frame=A0:010190020041;|Type=imperative 8 נָ֠א נָא INTJ _ _ 7 discourse _ Gloss=please|Ref=GEN_19:2!6|MId=o010190020061|Strong=4994|Type=exhortation 9 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=GEN_19:2!7|MId=o010190020071|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 10 בֵּ֨ית בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 7 obl _ Gloss=the.house|Ref=GEN_19:2!8|MId=o010190020081|Strong=1004 11-12 עַבְדְּכֶ֤ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 עַבְדּ עֶבֶד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 10 compound:smixut _ Gloss=your.servant|Ref=GEN_19:2!9|MId=o010190020091|Strong=5650 12 ְכֶ֤ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 11 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=GEN_19:2!9|MId=o010190020092|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 13-14 וְלִ֙ינוּ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 14 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_19:2!10|MId=o010190020101|Strong=2050b 14 לִ֙ינוּ֙ לין VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 7 conj _ Gloss=stay.the.night|Ref=GEN_19:2!10|MId=o010190020102|Strong=3885a|Frame=A0:010190020041;|Type=imperative 15-16 וְרַחֲצ֣וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 16 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_19:2!11|MId=o010190020111|Strong=2050b 16 רַחֲצ֣וּ רָחַץ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 7 conj _ Gloss=wash|Ref=GEN_19:2!11|MId=o010190020112|Strong=7364|Frame=A0:010190020041;A1:010190020121;|Type=imperative 17-18 רַגְלֵיכֶ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 רַגְלֵי רֶגֶל NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Dual 16 obj _ Gloss=feet|Ref=GEN_19:2!12|MId=o010190020121|Strong=7272 18 כֶ֔ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 17 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=GEN_19:2!12|MId=o010190020122|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 19-20 וְהִשְׁכַּמְתֶּ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 20 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_19:2!13|MId=o010190020131|Strong=2050b 20 הִשְׁכַּמְתֶּ֖ם שָׁכַם VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Plur|Person=2 7 conj _ Gloss=you.will.rise.early|Ref=GEN_19:2!13|MId=o010190020132|Strong=7925|Frame=A0:010190020041;|Type=qatal 21-25 וַהֲלַכְתֶּ֣םלְדַרְכְּכֶ֑ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 22 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_19:2!14|MId=o010190020141|Strong=2050b 22 הֲלַכְתֶּ֣ם הָלַךְ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 20 conj _ Gloss=you.will.go|Ref=GEN_19:2!14|MId=o010190020142|Strong=1980|Frame=A0:010190020041;|Type=qatal 23 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 24 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=GEN_19:2!15|MId=o010190020151|Strong=3807a 24 דַרְכּ דֶּרֶךְ NOUN _ Number=Sing 22 obl _ Gloss=way|Ref=GEN_19:2!15|MId=o010190020152|Strong=1870 25 ְכֶ֑ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 24 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=GEN_19:2!15|MId=o010190020153|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 26-27 וַיֹּאמְר֣וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 27 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_19:2!16|MId=o010190020161|Strong=2050b 27 יֹּאמְר֣וּ אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=they.said|Ref=GEN_19:2!16|MId=o010190020162|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:010190010032;|Type=wayyiqtol 28 לֹּ֔א לֹא ADV _ _ 27 ccomp _ Gloss=no|Ref=GEN_19:2!17|MId=o010190020171|Strong=3808|Type=negative 29 כִּ֥י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 33 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=GEN_19:2!18|MId=o010190020181|Strong=3588 30-32 בָרְח֖וֹב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 30 בָ בְּ ADP _ _ 32 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=GEN_19:2!19|MId=o010190020191|Strong=0871a 31 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 32 det _ Gloss=the.open|Ref=GEN_19:2!19|MId=o010190020191ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 32 רְח֖וֹב רְחֹב NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 33 obl _ Gloss=place|Ref=GEN_19:2!19|MId=o010190020192|Strong=7339 33 נָלִֽין לין VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=1 28 parataxis _ Gloss=we.will.stay.the.night|Ref=GEN_19:2!20|MId=o010190020201|Strong=3885a|Frame=A0:010190010032;|Type=yiqtol|SpaceAfter=No 34 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 33 punct _ Ref=GEN_19:2!20 ``` ##
