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 — beasts, I, LORD, My — and what happens in the verse to charge, sin, LORD, beasts, 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 27 chapters of Leviticus on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וְשָׁמְר֣וּ אֶת־מִשְׁמַרְתִּ֗י וְלֹֽא־יִשְׂא֤וּ עָלָיו֙ חֵ֔טְא וּמֵ֥תוּ ב֖וֹ כִּ֣י יְחַלְּלֻ֑הוּ אֲנִ֥י יְהוָ֖ה מְקַדְּשָֽׁם׃ [They shall therefore keep My charge, lest they bear sin for it, and die therein, if they profane it: I am the LORD who sanctify them.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/LEV.640/) ## 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:LEV:632 # text = וְשָׁמְר֣וּ אֶת־מִשְׁמַרְתִּ֗י וְלֹֽא־יִשְׂא֤וּ עָלָיו֙ חֵ֔טְא וּמֵ֥תוּ ב֖וֹ כִּ֣י יְחַלְּלֻ֑הוּ אֲנִ֥י יְהוָ֖ה מְקַדְּשָֽׁם׃ # verse = LEV.22.9 1-2 וְשָׁמְר֣וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_22:9!1|MId=o030220090011|Strong=2050b 2 שָׁמְר֣וּ שָׁמַר VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.will.keep|Ref=LEV_22:9!1|MId=o030220090012|Strong=8104|Frame=A0:030220040032;A1:030220090031;|Type=weqatal 3 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=LEV_22:9!2|MId=o030220090021|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 4-5 מִשְׁמַרְתִּ֗י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 מִשְׁמַרְתּ מִשְׁמֶרֶת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 2 obj _ Gloss=duty|Ref=LEV_22:9!3|MId=o030220090031|Strong=4931 5 ִ֗י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 4 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=LEV_22:9!3|MId=o030220090032|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 6-7 וְלֹֽא־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 8 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_22:9!4|MId=o030220090041|Strong=2050b 7 לֹֽא־ לֹא ADV _ _ 8 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=LEV_22:9!4|MId=o030220090042|Strong=3808|Type=negative 8 יִשְׂא֤וּ נָשָׂא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=they.will.bear|Ref=LEV_22:9!5|MId=o030220090051|Strong=5375|Frame=A0:030220040032;A1:030220090071;|Type=yiqtol 9-10 עָלָיו֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 עָלָי עַל ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=LEV_22:9!6|MId=o030220090061|Strong=5921 10 ו֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 8 obl _ Gloss=it|Ref=LEV_22:9!6|MId=o030220090062|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 11 חֵ֔טְא חֵטְא NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 obj _ Gloss=sin|Ref=LEV_22:9!7|MId=o030220090071|Strong=2399 12-13 וּמֵ֥תוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 13 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_22:9!8|MId=o030220090081|Strong=2050b 13 מֵ֥תוּ מוּת VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=they.will.die|Ref=LEV_22:9!8|MId=o030220090082|Strong=4191|Frame=A0:030220040032;|Type=weqatal 14-15 ב֖וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 ב בְּ ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=by|Ref=LEV_22:9!9|MId=o030220090091|Strong=0871a 15 ֖וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 13 obl _ Gloss=it|Ref=LEV_22:9!9|MId=o030220090092|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 16 כִּ֣י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 17 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=LEV_22:9!10|MId=o030220090101|Strong=3588 17-18 יְחַלְּלֻ֑הוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 יְחַלְּלֻ֑ חָלַל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 advcl _ Gloss=they|Ref=LEV_22:9!11|MId=o030220090111|Strong=2490|Frame=A0:030220040032;A1:030220090112;|Type=yiqtol 18 הוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 17 obj _ Gloss=will.profane.it|Ref=LEV_22:9!11|MId=o030220090112|Strong=1930a|Type=pronominal 19 אֲנִ֥י אֲנִי PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 20 nsubj _ Gloss=I|Ref=LEV_22:9!12|MId=o030220090121|Strong=0589|Type=personal 20 יְהוָ֖ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 2 parataxis _ Gloss=[am].Yahweh|Ref=LEV_22:9!13|MId=o030220090131|Strong=3068 21-22 מְקַדְּשָֽׁם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 מְקַדְּשׁ קָדַשׁ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing 20 appos _ Gloss=[who].sets|Ref=LEV_22:9!14|MId=o030220090141|Strong=6942|Frame=A0:030220090131;A1:030220090142;|Type=participle_active 22 ָֽם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 21 nmod:poss _ Gloss=them.apart.as.holy|Ref=LEV_22:9!14|MId=o030220090142|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 23 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 22 punct _ Ref=LEV_22:9!14 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | שָׁמְרוּ *they will keep* | weqatal · qal | | מִשְׁמַרְתּ *duty* | | | | **not** יִשְׂאוּ *they will bear* | yiqtol · qal | | חֵטְא *sin* | | | | מֵתוּ *they will die* | weqatal · qal | | | | | | יְחַלְּלֻ *they* | yiqtol · piel | | הוּ *will profane it* | | | | מְקַדְּשׁ *\[who\] sets* | participle active · piel | יְהוָה *\[am\] Yahweh* | ָֽם *them apart as holy* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
