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 — I, countenance, God — and what happens in the verse to countenance, 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. וַיֹּ֣אמֶר לָהֶ֗ן רֹאֶ֤ה אָנֹכִי֙ אֶת־פְּנֵ֣י אֲבִיכֶ֔ן כִּֽי־אֵינֶ֥נּוּ אֵלַ֖י כִּתְמֹ֣ל שִׁלְשֹׁ֑ם וֵֽאלֹהֵ֣י אָבִ֔י הָיָ֖ה עִמָּדִֽי׃ [and said unto them: 'I see your father's countenance, that it is not toward me as beforetime; but the God of my father hath been with me.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.938/) ## 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:878 # text = וַיֹּ֣אמֶר לָהֶ֗ן רֹאֶ֤ה אָנֹכִי֙ אֶת־פְּנֵ֣י אֲבִיכֶ֔ן כִּֽי־אֵינֶ֥נּוּ אֵלַ֖י כִּתְמֹ֣ל שִׁלְשֹׁ֑ם וֵֽאלֹהֵ֣י אָבִ֔י הָיָ֖ה עִמָּדִֽי׃ # verse = GEN.31.5 1-2 וַיֹּ֣אמֶר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_31:5!1|MId=o010310050011|Strong=2050b 2 יֹּ֣אמֶר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.said|Ref=GEN_31:5!1|MId=o010310050012|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:010310040021;|Type=wayyiqtol 3-4 לָהֶ֗ן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 ל לְ ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=GEN_31:5!2|MId=o010310050021|Strong=3807a 4 ָהֶ֗ן הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 2 obl _ Gloss=them|Ref=GEN_31:5!2|MId=o010310050022|Strong=2004|Type=pronominal 5 רֹאֶ֤ה רָאָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 2 ccomp _ Gloss=[am].seeing|Ref=GEN_31:5!3|MId=o010310050031|Strong=7200|Frame=A0:010310050041;A1:010310050061;|Type=participle_active 6 אָנֹכִי֙ אָנֹכִי PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 5 nsubj _ Gloss=I|Ref=GEN_31:5!4|MId=o010310050041|Strong=0595|Type=personal 7 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=GEN_31:5!5|MId=o010310050051|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 8 פְּנֵ֣י פָּנֶה NOUN _ Number=Plur 5 obj _ Gloss=the.face|Ref=GEN_31:5!6|MId=o010310050061|Strong=6440 9-10 אֲבִיכֶ֔ן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 אֲבִי אָב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 compound:smixut _ Gloss=your.father|Ref=GEN_31:5!7|MId=o010310050071|Strong=0001 10 כֶ֔ן הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 9 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=GEN_31:5!7|MId=o010310050072|Strong=3654a|Type=pronominal 11 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 12 mark _ Gloss=(dm).that|Ref=GEN_31:5!8|MId=o010310050081|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 12-13 אֵינֶ֥נּוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 אֵינ אַיִן ADV _ _ 5 parataxis _ Gloss=not|Ref=GEN_31:5!9|MId=o010310050091|Strong=0369|Type=negative 13 ֶ֥נּוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 12 nsubj _ Gloss=he|Ref=GEN_31:5!9|MId=o010310050092|Strong=5105b|Type=pronominal 14-15 אֵלַ֖י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 אֵל אֶל ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=[is].to|Ref=GEN_31:5!10|MId=o010310050101|Strong=0413 15 ַ֖י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 12 obl _ Gloss=me|Ref=GEN_31:5!10|MId=o010310050102|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 16-17 כִּתְמֹ֣ל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 כִּ כְּ ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=as|Ref=GEN_31:5!11|MId=o010310050111|Strong=3509a 17 תְמֹ֣ל תְּמוֹל ADV _ _ 12 obl _ Gloss=yesterday|Ref=GEN_31:5!11|MId=o010310050112|Strong=8543 18 שִׁלְשֹׁ֑ם שִׁלְשֹׁום ADV _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 17 advmod _ Gloss=three.days.ago|Ref=GEN_31:5!12|MId=o010310050121|Strong=8032 19-20 וֵֽאלֹהֵ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 וֵֽ וְ CCONJ _ _ 24 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_31:5!13|MId=o010310050131|Strong=2050b 20 אלֹהֵ֣י אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 24 nsubj _ Gloss=the.God|Ref=GEN_31:5!13|MId=o010310050132|Strong=0430 21-22 אָבִ֔י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 אָב אָב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 20 compound:smixut _ Gloss=my.father|Ref=GEN_31:5!14|MId=o010310050141|Strong=0001 22 ִ֔י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 21 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=GEN_31:5!14|MId=o010310050142|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 23 הָיָ֖ה הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 24 cop _ Gloss=he.has.been|Ref=GEN_31:5!15|MId=o010310050151|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:010310050132;|Type=qatal 24-25 עִמָּדִֽי _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 עִמָּד עִמָּד NOUN _ _ 5 conj _ Gloss=with|Ref=GEN_31:5!16|MId=o010310050161|Strong=5978 25 ִֽי הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 24 nmod:poss _ Gloss=me|Ref=GEN_31:5!16|MId=o010310050162|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 26 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 25 punct _ Ref=GEN_31:5!16 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: yes - the frame alone: decl · narrate · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יֹּאמֶר *he said* | wayyiqtol · qal | | | | | | **not** רֹאֶה *\[am\] seeing* | participle active · qal | אָנֹכִי *I* | פְּנֵי *the face* | | | | הָיָה *he has been* | qatal · qal | אלֹהֵי *the God* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
