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 — Moab — and what happens in the verse to thou, sons, 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. אוֹי־לְךָ֣ מוֹאָ֔ב אָבַ֖דְתָּ עַם־כְּמ֑וֹשׁ נָתַ֨ן בָּנָ֤יו פְּלֵיטִם֙ וּבְנֹתָ֣יו בַּשְּׁבִ֔ית לְמֶ֥לֶךְ אֱמֹרִ֖י סִיחֽוֹן׃ [Woe to thee, Moab! thou art undone, O people of Chemosh; he hath given his sons as fugitives, and his daughters into captivity, unto Sihon king of the Amorites.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/NUM.785/) ## 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:764 # text = אוֹי־לְךָ֣ מוֹאָ֔ב אָבַ֖דְתָּ עַם־כְּמ֑וֹשׁ נָתַ֨ן בָּנָ֤יו פְּלֵיטִם֙ וּבְנֹתָ֣יו בַּשְּׁבִ֔ית לְמֶ֥לֶךְ אֱמֹרִ֖י סִיחֽוֹן׃ # verse = NUM.21.29 1 אוֹי־ אוֹי INTJ _ _ 3 nsubj _ Gloss=woe!|Ref=NUM_21:29!1|MId=o040210290011|Strong=0188|Type=interjection|SpaceAfter=No 2-3 לְךָ֣ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 2 ל לְ ADP _ _ 3 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=NUM_21:29!2|MId=o040210290021|Strong=3807a 3 ְךָ֣ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 0 root _ Gloss=you|Ref=NUM_21:29!2|MId=o040210290022|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 4 מוֹאָ֔ב מוֹאָב PROPN _ _ 3 parataxis _ Gloss=O.Moab|Ref=NUM_21:29!3|MId=o040210290031|Strong=4124 5 אָבַ֖דְתָּ אָבַד VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 3 parataxis _ Gloss=you.have.perished|Ref=NUM_21:29!4|MId=o040210290041|Strong=0006|Frame=A0:040210290051;|Type=qatal 6 עַם־ עַם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 5 parataxis _ Gloss=O.people|Ref=NUM_21:29!5|MId=o040210290051|Strong=5971|SpaceAfter=No 7 כְּמ֑וֹשׁ כְּמוֹשׁ PROPN _ _ 6 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Chemosh|Ref=NUM_21:29!6|MId=o040210290061|Strong=3645 8 נָתַ֨ן נָתַן VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 3 parataxis _ Gloss=he.has.made|Ref=NUM_21:29!7|MId=o040210290071|Strong=5414|Frame=A0:040210290061;A1:040210290081;|Type=qatal 9-10 בָּנָ֤יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 בָּנָ֤י בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 8 obj _ Gloss=sons|Ref=NUM_21:29!8|MId=o040210290081|Strong=1121 10 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 9 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=NUM_21:29!8|MId=o040210290082|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 11 פְּלֵיטִם֙ פָּלֵיט NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 8 xcomp _ Gloss=fugitives|Ref=NUM_21:29!9|MId=o040210290091|Strong=6412a 12-14 וּבְנֹתָ֣יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 13 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NUM_21:29!10|MId=o040210290101|Strong=2050b 13 בְנֹתָ֣י בַּת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 8 conj _ Gloss=daughters|Ref=NUM_21:29!10|MId=o040210290102|Strong=1323 14 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 13 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=NUM_21:29!10|MId=o040210290103|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 15-17 בַּשְּׁבִ֔ית _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=NUM_21:29!11|MId=o040210290111|Strong=0871a 16 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 17 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=NUM_21:29!11|MId=o040210290111ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 17 שְּׁבִ֔ית שְׁבִית NOUN _ Number=Sing 13 obl _ Gloss=captivity|Ref=NUM_21:29!11|MId=o040210290112|Strong=7622a 18-19 לְמֶ֥לֶךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=of|Ref=NUM_21:29!12|MId=o040210290121|Strong=3807a 19 מֶ֥לֶךְ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 13 obl _ Gloss=the.king|Ref=NUM_21:29!12|MId=o040210290122|Strong=4428 20 אֱמֹרִ֖י אֱמֹרִי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 19 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.[the].Amorite[s]|Ref=NUM_21:29!13|MId=o040210290131|Strong=0567|Type=gentilic 21 סִיחֽוֹן סִיחוֹן PROPN _ _ 19 appos _ Gloss=Sihon|Ref=NUM_21:29!14|MId=o040210290141|Strong=5511|SpaceAfter=No 22 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 21 punct _ Ref=NUM_21:29!14 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: speech with no frame - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | אָבַדְתָּ *you have perished* | qatal · qal | עַם־ *O people* | | | | | נָתַן *he has made* | qatal · qal | כְּמוֹשׁ *of Chemosh* | בָּנָי *sons* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
