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 — God, lord, children, flocks — and what happens in the verse to gift, suck, care, me, children, 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 אֵלָ֗יו אֲדֹנִ֤י יֹדֵ֙עַ֙ כִּֽי־הַיְלָדִ֣ים רַכִּ֔ים וְהַצֹּ֥אן וְהַבָּקָ֖ר עָל֣וֹת עָלָ֑י וּדְפָקוּם֙ י֣וֹם אֶחָ֔ד וָמֵ֖תוּ כָּל־הַצֹּֽאן׃ [And he said unto him: 'My lord knoweth that the children are tender, and that the flocks and herds giving suck are a care to me; and if they overdrive them one day, all the flocks will die.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.1046/) ## 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:973 # text = וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אֵלָ֗יו אֲדֹנִ֤י יֹדֵ֙עַ֙ כִּֽי־הַיְלָדִ֣ים רַכִּ֔ים וְהַצֹּ֥אן וְהַבָּקָ֖ר עָל֣וֹת עָלָ֑י וּדְפָקוּם֙ י֣וֹם אֶחָ֔ד וָמֵ֖תוּ כָּל־הַצֹּֽאן׃ # verse = GEN.33.13 1-2 וַיֹּ֣אמֶר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_33:13!1|MId=o010330130011|Strong=2050b 2 יֹּ֣אמֶר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.said|Ref=GEN_33:13!1|MId=o010330130012|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:010330100021;|Type=wayyiqtol 3-4 אֵלָ֗יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 אֵלָ֗י אֶל ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=GEN_33:13!2|MId=o010330130021|Strong=0413 4 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 2 obl _ Gloss=him|Ref=GEN_33:13!2|MId=o010330130022|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 5-6 אֲדֹנִ֤י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 אֲדֹנ אָדוֹן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 7 nsubj _ Gloss=lord|Ref=GEN_33:13!3|MId=o010330130031|Strong=0113 6 ִ֤י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 5 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=GEN_33:13!3|MId=o010330130032|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 7 יֹדֵ֙עַ֙ יָדַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 2 ccomp _ Gloss=[is].knowing|Ref=GEN_33:13!4|MId=o010330130041|Strong=3045|Frame=A0:010330130031;A1:010330130071;010330130101;|Type=participle_active 8 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 11 mark _ Gloss=(dm).that|Ref=GEN_33:13!5|MId=o010330130051|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 9-10 הַיְלָדִ֣ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 10 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=GEN_33:13!6|MId=o010330130061|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 10 יְלָדִ֣ים יֶלֶד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 11 nsubj _ Gloss=children|Ref=GEN_33:13!6|MId=o010330130062|Strong=3206 11 רַכִּ֔ים רַךְ ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 7 ccomp _ Gloss=[are].weak|Ref=GEN_33:13!7|MId=o010330130071|Strong=7390|Type=adjective 12-14 וְהַצֹּ֥אן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 18 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_33:13!8|MId=o010330130081|Strong=2050b 13 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 14 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=GEN_33:13!8|MId=o010330130082|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 14 צֹּ֥אן צֹאן NOUN _ Number=Sing 18 nsubj _ Gloss=sheep|Ref=GEN_33:13!8|MId=o010330130083|Strong=6629 15-17 וְהַבָּקָ֖ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 17 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_33:13!9|MId=o010330130091|Strong=2050b 16 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 17 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=GEN_33:13!9|MId=o010330130092|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 17 בָּקָ֖ר בָּקָר NOUN _ Number=Sing 14 conj _ Gloss=cattle|Ref=GEN_33:13!9|MId=o010330130093|Strong=1241 18 עָל֣וֹת עוּל VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur 11 conj _ Gloss=[are].nursing|Ref=GEN_33:13!10|MId=o010330130101|Strong=5763|Frame=A0:010330130083;010330130093;|Type=participle_active 19-20 עָלָ֑י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 עָל עַל ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=GEN_33:13!11|MId=o010330130111|Strong=5921 20 ָ֑י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 18 obl _ Gloss=me|Ref=GEN_33:13!11|MId=o010330130112|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 21-23 וּדְפָקוּם֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 22 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_33:13!12|MId=o010330130121|Strong=2050b 22 דְפָקוּ דָּפַק VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 7 conj _ Gloss=people|Ref=GEN_33:13!12|MId=o010330130122|Strong=1849|Frame=A0:;A1:010330130123;|Type=weqatal 23 ם֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 22 obj _ Gloss=will.drive.them.hard|Ref=GEN_33:13!12|MId=o010330130123|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 24 י֣וֹם יוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 22 obl _ Gloss=a.day|Ref=GEN_33:13!13|MId=o010330130131|Strong=3117 25 אֶחָ֔ד אֶחָד NUM _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 24 nummod _ Gloss=one|Ref=GEN_33:13!14|MId=o010330130141|Strong=0259|Type=cardinal_number 26-27 וָמֵ֖תוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 וָ וְ CCONJ _ _ 27 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_33:13!15|MId=o010330130151|Strong=2050b 27 מֵ֖תוּ מוּת VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 7 conj _ Gloss=they.will.die|Ref=GEN_33:13!15|MId=o010330130152|Strong=4191|Frame=A0:010330130172;|Type=weqatal 28 כָּל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 27 nsubj _ Gloss=all|Ref=GEN_33:13!16|MId=o010330130161|Strong=3605|SpaceAfter=No 29-30 הַצֹּֽאן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 29 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 30 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=GEN_33:13!17|MId=o010330130171|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 30 צֹּֽאן צֹאן NOUN _ Number=Sing 28 compound:smixut _ Gloss=flock|Ref=GEN_33:13!17|MId=o010330130172|Strong=6629 31 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 30 punct _ Ref=GEN_33:13!17 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
