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, five years, thou — and what happens in the verse to thee, poverty, 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. וְכִלְכַּלְתִּ֤י אֹֽתְךָ֙ שָׁ֔ם כִּי־ע֛וֹד חָמֵ֥שׁ שָׁנִ֖ים רָעָ֑ב פֶּן־תִּוָּרֵ֛שׁ אַתָּ֥ה וּבֵֽיתְךָ֖ וְכָל־אֲשֶׁר־לָֽךְ׃ [and there will I sustain thee; for there are yet five years of famine; lest thou come to poverty, thou, and thy household, and all that thou hast.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.1485/) ## 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:1369 # text = וְכִלְכַּלְתִּ֤י אֹֽתְךָ֙ שָׁ֔ם כִּי־ע֛וֹד חָמֵ֥שׁ שָׁנִ֖ים רָעָ֑ב פֶּן־תִּוָּרֵ֛שׁ אַתָּ֥ה וּבֵֽיתְךָ֖ וְכָל־אֲשֶׁר־לָֽךְ׃ # verse = GEN.45.11 1-2 וְכִלְכַּלְתִּ֤י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_45:11!1|MId=o010450110011|Strong=2050b 2 כִלְכַּלְתִּ֤י כּוּל VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=PILPEL|Number=Sing|Person=1 0 root _ Gloss=I.will.provide.for|Ref=GEN_45:11!1|MId=o010450110012|Strong=3557|Frame=A0:010450090091;A1:010450110022;|Type=weqatal 3-4 אֹֽתְךָ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 אֹֽת אֵת ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=|Ref=GEN_45:11!2|MId=o010450110021|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 4 ְךָ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 2 obj _ Gloss=you|Ref=GEN_45:11!2|MId=o010450110022|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 5 שָׁ֔ם שָׁם ADV _ _ 2 advmod _ Gloss=there|Ref=GEN_45:11!3|MId=o010450110031|Strong=8033 6 כִּי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 9 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=GEN_45:11!4|MId=o010450110041|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 7 ע֛וֹד עוֹד ADV _ _ 9 advmod _ Gloss=still|Ref=GEN_45:11!5|MId=o010450110051|Strong=5750 8 חָמֵ֥שׁ חָמֵשׁ NUM _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 9 nummod _ Gloss=[will.be].five|Ref=GEN_45:11!6|MId=o010450110061|Strong=2568|Type=cardinal_number 9 שָׁנִ֖ים שָׁנָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 2 advcl _ Gloss=years|Ref=GEN_45:11!7|MId=o010450110071|Strong=8141 10 רָעָ֑ב רָעָב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 nsubj _ Gloss=famine|Ref=GEN_45:11!8|MId=o010450110081|Strong=7458 11 פֶּן־ פֶּן SCONJ _ _ 12 mark _ Gloss=lest|Ref=GEN_45:11!9|MId=o010450110091|Strong=6435|SpaceAfter=No 12 תִּוָּרֵ֛שׁ יָרַשׁ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 2 advcl _ Gloss=you.should.become.impoverished|Ref=GEN_45:11!10|MId=o010450110101|Strong=3423|Frame=A1:010450110111;010450110122;010450110132;|Type=yiqtol 13 אַתָּ֥ה אַתָּה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 12 nsubj _ Gloss=you|Ref=GEN_45:11!11|MId=o010450110111|Strong=0859|Type=personal 14-16 וּבֵֽיתְךָ֖ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 15 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_45:11!12|MId=o010450110121|Strong=2050b 15 בֵֽית בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 13 conj _ Gloss=household|Ref=GEN_45:11!12|MId=o010450110122|Strong=1004 16 ְךָ֖ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 15 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=GEN_45:11!12|MId=o010450110123|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 17-18 וְכָל־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 18 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_45:11!13|MId=o010450110131|Strong=2050b 18 כָל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 13 conj _ Gloss=all|Ref=GEN_45:11!13|MId=o010450110132|Strong=3605 19 אֲשֶׁר־ אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 21 mark _ Gloss=that|Ref=GEN_45:11!14|MId=o010450110141|Strong=0834|Type=relative|SpaceAfter=No 20-21 לָֽךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 ל לְ ADP _ _ 21 case _ Gloss=[belongs].to|Ref=GEN_45:11!15|MId=o010450110151|Strong=3807a 21 ָֽךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 18 acl:relcl _ Gloss=you|Ref=GEN_45:11!15|MId=o010450110152|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 22 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 21 punct _ Ref=GEN_45:11!15 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: promise - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | כִלְכַּלְתִּי *I will provide for* | weqatal · pilpel | | ְךָ *you* | | | | תִּוָּרֵשׁ *you should become impoverished* | yiqtol · niphal | | אַתָּה *you* + בֵֽית *household* + כָל־ *all* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
