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 — thou, I — and what happens in the verse to thee, land, that, 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. וְהִנֵּ֨ה אָנֹכִ֜י עִמָּ֗ךְ וּשְׁמַרְתִּ֙יךָ֙ בְּכֹ֣ל אֲשֶׁר־תֵּלֵ֔ךְ וַהֲשִׁ֣בֹתִ֔יךָ אֶל־הָאֲדָמָ֖ה הַזֹּ֑את כִּ֚י לֹ֣א אֶֽעֱזָבְךָ֔ עַ֚ד אֲשֶׁ֣ר אִם־עָשִׂ֔יתִי אֵ֥ת אֲשֶׁר־דִּבַּ֖רְתִּי לָֽךְ׃ [And, behold, I am with thee, and will keep thee whithersoever thou goest, and will bring thee back into this land; for I will not leave thee, until I have done that which I have spoken to thee of.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.842/) ## 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:788 # text = וְהִנֵּ֨ה אָנֹכִ֜י עִמָּ֗ךְ וּשְׁמַרְתִּ֙יךָ֙ בְּכֹ֣ל אֲשֶׁר־תֵּלֵ֔ךְ וַהֲשִׁ֣בֹתִ֔יךָ אֶל־הָאֲדָמָ֖ה הַזֹּ֑את כִּ֚י לֹ֣א אֶֽעֱזָבְךָ֔ עַ֚ד אֲשֶׁ֣ר אִם־עָשִׂ֔יתִי אֵ֥ת אֲשֶׁר־דִּבַּ֖רְתִּי לָֽךְ׃ # verse = GEN.28.15 1-2 וְהִנֵּ֨ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 5 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_28:15!1|MId=o010280150011|Strong=2050b 2 הִנֵּ֨ה הִנֵּה INTJ _ _ 5 discourse _ Gloss=here!|Ref=GEN_28:15!1|MId=o010280150012|Strong=2009|Type=demonstrative 3 אָנֹכִ֜י אָנֹכִי PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 5 nsubj _ Gloss=I|Ref=GEN_28:15!2|MId=o010280150021|Strong=0595|Type=personal 4-5 עִמָּ֗ךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 עִמּ עִם ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=[am].with|Ref=GEN_28:15!3|MId=o010280150031|Strong=5973 5 ָ֗ךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 0 root _ Gloss=you|Ref=GEN_28:15!3|MId=o010280150032|Strong=3509c|Type=pronominal 6-8 וּשְׁמַרְתִּ֙יךָ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 7 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_28:15!4|MId=o010280150041|Strong=2050b 7 שְׁמַרְתִּ֙י שָׁמַר VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 5 conj _ Gloss=I|Ref=GEN_28:15!4|MId=o010280150042|Strong=8104|Frame=A0:010280130021;A1:010280150043;|Type=weqatal 8 ךָ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 7 obj _ Gloss=will.protect.you|Ref=GEN_28:15!4|MId=o010280150043|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 9-10 בְּכֹ֣ל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=GEN_28:15!5|MId=o010280150051|Strong=0871a 10 כֹ֣ל כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 7 obl _ Gloss=every|Ref=GEN_28:15!5|MId=o010280150052|Strong=3605 11 אֲשֶׁר־ אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 12 mark _ Gloss=where|Ref=GEN_28:15!6|MId=o010280150061|Strong=0834|Type=relative|SpaceAfter=No 12 תֵּלֵ֔ךְ הלך VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 10 acl:relcl _ Gloss=you.will.go|Ref=GEN_28:15!7|MId=o010280150071|Strong=1980|Frame=A0:010280100021;|Type=yiqtol 13-15 וַהֲשִׁ֣בֹתִ֔יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 14 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_28:15!8|MId=o010280150081|Strong=2050b 14 הֲשִׁ֣בֹתִ֔י שׁוּב VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=1 5 conj _ Gloss=I|Ref=GEN_28:15!8|MId=o010280150082|Strong=7725|Frame=AA:010280130021;A0:010280150083;|Type=weqatal 15 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 14 obj _ Gloss=will.bring.you.back|Ref=GEN_28:15!8|MId=o010280150083|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 16 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=GEN_28:15!9|MId=o010280150091|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 17-18 הָאֲדָמָ֖ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 18 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=GEN_28:15!10|MId=o010280150101|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 18 אֲדָמָ֖ה אֲדָמָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 14 obl _ Gloss=land|Ref=GEN_28:15!10|MId=o010280150102|Strong=0127 19-20 הַזֹּ֑את _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 20 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=GEN_28:15!11|MId=o010280150111|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 20 זֹּ֑את זֹאת DET _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|PronType=Dem 18 det _ Gloss=this|Ref=GEN_28:15!11|MId=o010280150112|Strong=2063|Type=demonstrative 21 כִּ֚י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 23 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=GEN_28:15!12|MId=o010280150121|Strong=3588 22 לֹ֣א לֹא ADV _ _ 23 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=GEN_28:15!13|MId=o010280150131|Strong=3808|Type=negative 23-24 אֶֽעֱזָבְךָ֔ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 אֶֽעֱזָב עָזַב VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 5 advcl _ Gloss=I|Ref=GEN_28:15!14|MId=o010280150141|Strong=5800|Frame=A0:010280130021;A1:010280150142;|Type=yiqtol 24 ְךָ֔ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 23 obj _ Gloss=will.abandon.you|Ref=GEN_28:15!14|MId=o010280150142|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 25 עַ֚ד עַד ADP _ _ 23 parataxis _ Gloss=until|Ref=GEN_28:15!15|MId=o010280150151|Strong=5704 26 אֲשֶׁ֣ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 28 mark _ Gloss=that|Ref=GEN_28:15!16|MId=o010280150161|Strong=0834|Type=relative 27 אִם־ אִם SCONJ _ _ 28 mark _ Gloss=(if)|Ref=GEN_28:15!17|MId=o010280150171|Strong=0518|SpaceAfter=No 28 עָשִׂ֔יתִי עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 25 parataxis _ Gloss=I.have.done|Ref=GEN_28:15!18|MId=o010280150181|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:010280130021;A1:010280150211;|Type=qatal 29 אֵ֥ת אֵת ADP _ _ 28 obj _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=GEN_28:15!19|MId=o010280150191|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 30 אֲשֶׁר־ אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 31 mark _ Gloss=[that].which|Ref=GEN_28:15!20|MId=o010280150201|Strong=0834|Type=relative|SpaceAfter=No 31 דִּבַּ֖רְתִּי דָבַר VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=1 29 acl:relcl _ Gloss=I.have.spoken|Ref=GEN_28:15!21|MId=o010280150211|Strong=1696|Frame=A0:010280130021;|Type=qatal 32-33 לָֽךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 32 ל לְ ADP _ _ 33 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=GEN_28:15!22|MId=o010280150221|Strong=3807a 33 ָֽךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 31 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=GEN_28:15!22|MId=o010280150222|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 34 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 33 punct _ Ref=GEN_28:15!22 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
