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, waters, flood, My — and what happens in the verse to covenant, flesh, earth, 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. וַהֲקִמֹתִ֤י אֶת־בְּרִיתִי֙ אִתְּכֶ֔ם וְלֹֽא־יִכָּרֵ֧ת כָּל־בָּשָׂ֛ר ע֖וֹד מִמֵּ֣י הַמַּבּ֑וּל וְלֹֽא־יִהְיֶ֥ה ע֛וֹד מַבּ֖וּל לְשַׁחֵ֥ת הָאָֽרֶץ׃ [And I will establish My covenant with you; neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of the flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.228/) ## 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:216 # text = וַהֲקִמֹתִ֤י אֶת־בְּרִיתִי֙ אִתְּכֶ֔ם וְלֹֽא־יִכָּרֵ֧ת כָּל־בָּשָׂ֛ר ע֖וֹד מִמֵּ֣י הַמַּבּ֑וּל וְלֹֽא־יִהְיֶ֥ה ע֛וֹד מַבּ֖וּל לְשַׁחֵ֥ת הָאָֽרֶץ׃ # verse = GEN.9.11 1-2 וַהֲקִמֹתִ֤י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_9:11!1|MId=o010090110011|Strong=2050b 2 הֲקִמֹתִ֤י קוּם VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=1 0 root _ Gloss=I.will.establish|Ref=GEN_9:11!1|MId=o010090110012|Strong=6965|Frame=AA:010090080021;A0:010090110031;|Type=weqatal 3 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=GEN_9:11!2|MId=o010090110021|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 4-5 בְּרִיתִי֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 בְּרִית בְּרִית NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 2 obj _ Gloss=covenant|Ref=GEN_9:11!3|MId=o010090110031|Strong=1285 5 ִי֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 4 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=GEN_9:11!3|MId=o010090110032|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 6-7 אִתְּכֶ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 אִתּ אֵת ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=GEN_9:11!4|MId=o010090110041|Strong=0854 7 ְכֶ֔ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 2 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=GEN_9:11!4|MId=o010090110042|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 8-9 וְלֹֽא־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 10 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_9:11!5|MId=o010090110051|Strong=2050b 9 לֹֽא־ לֹא ADV _ _ 10 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=GEN_9:11!5|MId=o010090110052|Strong=3808|Type=negative 10 יִכָּרֵ֧ת כָּרַת VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=it.will.be.cut.off|Ref=GEN_9:11!6|MId=o010090110061|Strong=3772|Frame=A1:010090110081;|Type=yiqtol 11 כָּל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 10 nsubj _ Gloss=all|Ref=GEN_9:11!7|MId=o010090110071|Strong=3605|SpaceAfter=No 12 בָּשָׂ֛ר בָּשָׂר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 11 compound:smixut _ Gloss=flesh|Ref=GEN_9:11!8|MId=o010090110081|Strong=1320 13 ע֖וֹד עוֹד ADV _ _ 10 advmod _ Gloss=again|Ref=GEN_9:11!9|MId=o010090110091|Strong=5750 14-15 מִמֵּ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=GEN_9:11!10|MId=o010090110101|Strong=4480 15 מֵּ֣י מַיִם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 10 obl _ Gloss=the.waters|Ref=GEN_9:11!10|MId=o010090110102|Strong=4325 16-17 הַמַּבּ֑וּל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 17 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=GEN_9:11!11|MId=o010090110111|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 17 מַּבּ֑וּל מַבּוּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 15 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.flood|Ref=GEN_9:11!11|MId=o010090110112|Strong=3999 18-19 וְלֹֽא־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 24 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_9:11!12|MId=o010090110121|Strong=2050b 19 לֹֽא־ לֹא ADV _ _ 24 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=GEN_9:11!12|MId=o010090110122|Strong=3808|Type=negative 20 יִהְיֶ֥ה הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 24 cop _ Gloss=it.will.be|Ref=GEN_9:11!13|MId=o010090110131|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:010090110151;|Type=yiqtol 21 ע֛וֹד עוֹד ADV _ _ 24 advmod _ Gloss=again|Ref=GEN_9:11!14|MId=o010090110141|Strong=5750 22 מַבּ֖וּל מַבּוּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 24 nsubj _ Gloss=a.flood|Ref=GEN_9:11!15|MId=o010090110151|Strong=3999 23-24 לְשַׁחֵ֥ת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 24 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=GEN_9:11!16|MId=o010090110161|Strong=3807a 24 שַׁחֵ֥ת שָׁחַת VERB _ HebBinyan=PIEL 2 conj _ Gloss=destroy|Ref=GEN_9:11!16|MId=o010090110162|Strong=7843|Frame=A0:010090110151;A1:010090110172;|Type=infinitive_construct 25-26 הָאָֽרֶץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 26 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=GEN_9:11!17|MId=o010090110171|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 26 אָֽרֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 24 obj _ Gloss=earth|Ref=GEN_9:11!17|MId=o010090110172|Strong=0776 27 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=GEN_9:11!17 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: promise - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: yes | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | הֲקִמֹתִי *I will establish* | weqatal · hiphil | בְּרִית *covenant* | | | | | **not** יִכָּרֵת *it will be cut off* | yiqtol · niphal | | בָּשָׂר *flesh* | | | | יִהְיֶה *it will be* | yiqtol · qal | מַבּוּל *a flood* | | | | | **not** שַׁחֵת *destroy* | infinitive construct · piel | מַבּוּל *a flood* | אָֽרֶץ *earth* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
