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 — LORD, Thou — and what happens in the verse to iniquity, 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. וַיֹּ֤אמֶר יְהוָה֙ אֶֽל־אַהֲרֹ֔ן אַתָּ֗ה וּבָנֶ֤יךָ וּבֵית־אָבִ֙יךָ֙ אִתָּ֔ךְ תִּשְׂא֖וּ אֶת־עֲוֺ֣ן הַמִּקְדָּ֑שׁ וְאַתָּה֙ וּבָנֶ֣יךָ אִתָּ֔ךְ תִּשְׂא֖וּ אֶת־עֲוֺ֥ן כְּהֻנַּתְכֶֽם׃ [And the LORD said unto Aaron: 'Thou and thy sons and thy fathers' house with thee shall bear the iniquity of the sanctuary; and thou and thy sons with thee shall bear the iniquity of your priesthood.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/NUM.673/) ## 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:653 # text = וַיֹּ֤אמֶר יְהוָה֙ אֶֽל־אַהֲרֹ֔ן אַתָּ֗ה וּבָנֶ֤יךָ וּבֵית־אָבִ֙יךָ֙ אִתָּ֔ךְ תִּשְׂא֖וּ אֶת־עֲוֺ֣ן הַמִּקְדָּ֑שׁ וְאַתָּה֙ וּבָנֶ֣יךָ אִתָּ֔ךְ תִּשְׂא֖וּ אֶת־עֲוֺ֥ן כְּהֻנַּתְכֶֽם׃ # verse = NUM.18.1 1-2 וַיֹּ֤אמֶר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NUM_18:1!1|MId=o040180010011|Strong=2050b 2 יֹּ֤אמֶר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.said|Ref=NUM_18:1!1|MId=o040180010012|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:040180010021;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 יְהוָה֙ יהוה PROPN _ _ 2 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=NUM_18:1!2|MId=o040180010021|Strong=3068 4 אֶֽל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=NUM_18:1!3|MId=o040180010031|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 5 אַהֲרֹ֔ן אַהֲרֹן PROPN _ _ 2 obl _ Gloss=Aaron|Ref=NUM_18:1!4|MId=o040180010041|Strong=0175 6 אַתָּ֗ה אַתָּה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 16 nsubj _ Gloss=you|Ref=NUM_18:1!5|MId=o040180010051|Strong=0859|Type=personal 7-9 וּבָנֶ֤יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 8 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NUM_18:1!6|MId=o040180010061|Strong=2050b 8 בָנֶ֤י בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 6 conj _ Gloss=sons|Ref=NUM_18:1!6|MId=o040180010062|Strong=1121 9 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 8 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=NUM_18:1!6|MId=o040180010063|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 10-11 וּבֵית־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 11 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NUM_18:1!7|MId=o040180010071|Strong=2050b 11 בֵית־ בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 conj _ Gloss=the.house|Ref=NUM_18:1!7|MId=o040180010072|Strong=1004 12-13 אָבִ֙יךָ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 אָבִ֙י אָב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 11 compound:smixut _ Gloss=your.ancestor|Ref=NUM_18:1!8|MId=o040180010081|Strong=0001 13 ךָ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 12 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=NUM_18:1!8|MId=o040180010082|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 14-15 אִתָּ֔ךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 אִתּ אֵת ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=NUM_18:1!9|MId=o040180010091|Strong=0854 15 ָ֔ךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 11 nmod _ Gloss=you|Ref=NUM_18:1!9|MId=o040180010092|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 16 תִּשְׂא֖וּ נָשָׂא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 2 ccomp _ Gloss=you.will.bear|Ref=NUM_18:1!10|MId=o040180010101|Strong=5375|Frame=A0:040180010051;040180010062;040180010072;A1:040180010121;|Type=yiqtol 17 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=NUM_18:1!11|MId=o040180010111|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 18 עֲוֺ֣ן עָוֺן NOUN _ Number=Sing 16 obj _ Gloss=the.guilt|Ref=NUM_18:1!12|MId=o040180010121|Strong=5771 19-20 הַמִּקְדָּ֑שׁ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 20 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=NUM_18:1!13|MId=o040180010131|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 20 מִּקְדָּ֑שׁ מִקְדָּשׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 18 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.sanctuary|Ref=NUM_18:1!13|MId=o040180010132|Strong=4720 21-22 וְאַתָּה֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 28 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NUM_18:1!14|MId=o040180010141|Strong=2050b 22 אַתָּה֙ אַתָּה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 28 nsubj _ Gloss=you|Ref=NUM_18:1!14|MId=o040180010142|Strong=0859|Type=personal 23-25 וּבָנֶ֣יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 24 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NUM_18:1!15|MId=o040180010151|Strong=2050b 24 בָנֶ֣י בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 22 conj _ Gloss=sons|Ref=NUM_18:1!15|MId=o040180010152|Strong=1121 25 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 24 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=NUM_18:1!15|MId=o040180010153|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 26-27 אִתָּ֔ךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 אִתּ אֵת ADP _ _ 27 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=NUM_18:1!16|MId=o040180010161|Strong=0854 27 ָ֔ךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 24 nmod _ Gloss=you|Ref=NUM_18:1!16|MId=o040180010162|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 28 תִּשְׂא֖וּ נָשָׂא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 16 conj _ Gloss=you.will.bear|Ref=NUM_18:1!17|MId=o040180010171|Strong=5375|Frame=A0:040180010142;040180010152;A1:040180010191;|Type=yiqtol 29 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 30 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=NUM_18:1!18|MId=o040180010181|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 30 עֲוֺ֥ן עָוֺן NOUN _ Number=Sing 28 obj _ Gloss=the.guilt|Ref=NUM_18:1!19|MId=o040180010191|Strong=5771 31-32 כְּהֻנַּתְכֶֽם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 31 כְּהֻנַּת כְּהֻנָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 30 compound:smixut _ Gloss=your.priesthood|Ref=NUM_18:1!20|MId=o040180010201|Strong=3550 32 ְכֶֽם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 31 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=NUM_18:1!20|MId=o040180010202|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 33 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 32 punct _ Ref=NUM_18:1!20 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
