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 — children — and what happens in the verse to wanderers, wilderness, strayings, carcasses, 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 36 chapters of Numbers on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וּ֠בְנֵיכֶם יִהְי֨וּ רֹעִ֤ים בַּמִּדְבָּר֙ אַרְבָּעִ֣ים שָׁנָ֔ה וְנָשְׂא֖וּ אֶת־זְנוּתֵיכֶ֑ם עַד־תֹּ֥ם פִּגְרֵיכֶ֖ם בַּמִּדְבָּֽר׃ [And your children shall be wanderers in the wilderness forty years, and shall bear your strayings, until your carcasses be consumed in the wilderness.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/NUM.556/) ## 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:NUM:536 # text = וּ֠בְנֵיכֶם יִהְי֨וּ רֹעִ֤ים בַּמִּדְבָּר֙ אַרְבָּעִ֣ים שָׁנָ֔ה וְנָשְׂא֖וּ אֶת־זְנוּתֵיכֶ֑ם עַד־תֹּ֥ם פִּגְרֵיכֶ֖ם בַּמִּדְבָּֽר׃ # verse = NUM.14.33 1-3 וּ֠בְנֵיכֶם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וּ֠ וְ CCONJ _ _ 5 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NUM_14:33!1|MId=o040140330011|Strong=2050b 2 בְנֵי בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 5 nsubj _ Gloss=children|Ref=NUM_14:33!1|MId=o040140330012|Strong=1121 3 כֶם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 2 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=NUM_14:33!1|MId=o040140330013|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 4 יִהְי֨וּ הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 5 cop _ Gloss=they.will.be|Ref=NUM_14:33!2|MId=o040140330021|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:040140330012;|Type=yiqtol 5 רֹעִ֤ים רָעָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur 0 root _ Gloss=shepherds|Ref=NUM_14:33!3|MId=o040140330031|Strong=7473|Frame=A0:040140330012;|Type=participle_active 6-8 בַּמִּדְבָּר֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=NUM_14:33!4|MId=o040140330041|Strong=0871a 7 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 8 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=NUM_14:33!4|MId=o040140330041ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 8 מִּדְבָּר֙ מִדְבָּר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 5 obl _ Gloss=wilderness|Ref=NUM_14:33!4|MId=o040140330042|Strong=4057 9 אַרְבָּעִ֣ים אַרְבַּע NUM _ Number=Plur 10 nummod _ Gloss=forty|Ref=NUM_14:33!5|MId=o040140330051|Strong=0705|Type=cardinal_number 10 שָׁנָ֔ה שָׁנָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 5 obl _ Gloss=year[s]|Ref=NUM_14:33!6|MId=o040140330061|Strong=8141 11-12 וְנָשְׂא֖וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 12 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NUM_14:33!7|MId=o040140330071|Strong=2050b 12 נָשְׂא֖וּ נָשָׂא VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 5 conj _ Gloss=they.will.bear|Ref=NUM_14:33!7|MId=o040140330072|Strong=5375|Frame=A0:040140330012;A1:040140330091;|Type=weqatal 13 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=NUM_14:33!8|MId=o040140330081|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 14-15 זְנוּתֵיכֶ֑ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 זְנוּתֵי זְנוּת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 12 obj _ Gloss=prostitution(s)|Ref=NUM_14:33!9|MId=o040140330091|Strong=2184 15 כֶ֑ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 14 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=NUM_14:33!9|MId=o040140330092|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 16 עַד־ עַד ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=until|Ref=NUM_14:33!10|MId=o040140330101|Strong=5704|SpaceAfter=No 17 תֹּ֥ם תָּמַם VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 12 advcl _ Gloss=are.finished|Ref=NUM_14:33!11|MId=o040140330111|Strong=8552|Frame=A0:040140330121;|Type=infinitive_construct 18-19 פִּגְרֵיכֶ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 פִּגְרֵי פֶּגֶר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 17 nsubj _ Gloss=corpses|Ref=NUM_14:33!12|MId=o040140330121|Strong=6297 19 כֶ֖ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 18 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=NUM_14:33!12|MId=o040140330122|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 20-22 בַּמִּדְבָּֽר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=NUM_14:33!13|MId=o040140330131|Strong=0871a 21 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 22 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=NUM_14:33!13|MId=o040140330131ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 22 מִּדְבָּֽר מִדְבָּר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 17 obl _ Gloss=wilderness|Ref=NUM_14:33!13|MId=o040140330132|Strong=4057 23 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 22 punct _ Ref=NUM_14:33!13 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: narrator - speech: narration - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יִהְיוּ *they will be* | yiqtol · qal | בְנֵי *children* | | | | | רֹעִים *shepherds* | participle active · qal | בְנֵי *children* | | | | | נָשְׂאוּ *they will bear* | weqatal · qal | בְנֵי *children* | זְנוּתֵי *prostitution(s)* | | | | תֹּם *are finished* | infinitive construct · qal | פִּגְרֵי *corpses* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
