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 — you, people, ox, I — and what happens in the verse to people, Egypt, face, me, 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. הִנֵּ֤ה הָעָם֙ הַיֹּצֵ֣א מִמִּצְרַ֔יִם וַיְכַ֖ס אֶת־עֵ֣ין הָאָ֑רֶץ עַתָּ֗ה לְכָ֤ה קָֽבָה־לִּי֙ אֹת֔וֹ אוּלַ֥י אוּכַ֛ל לְהִלָּ֥חֶם בּ֖וֹ וְגֵרַשְׁתִּֽיו׃ [Behold the people that is come out of Egypt, it covereth the face of the earth; now, come curse me them; peradventure I shall be able to fight against them, and shall drive them out.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/NUM.802/) ## 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:781 # text = הִנֵּ֤ה הָעָם֙ הַיֹּצֵ֣א מִמִּצְרַ֔יִם וַיְכַ֖ס אֶת־עֵ֣ין הָאָ֑רֶץ עַתָּ֗ה לְכָ֤ה קָֽבָה־לִּי֙ אֹת֔וֹ אוּלַ֥י אוּכַ֛ל לְהִלָּ֥חֶם בּ֖וֹ וְגֵרַשְׁתִּֽיו׃ # verse = NUM.22.11 1 הִנֵּ֤ה הִנֵּה INTJ _ _ 9 discourse _ Gloss=here!|Ref=NUM_22:11!1|MId=o040220110011|Strong=2009|Type=demonstrative 2-3 הָעָם֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 2 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 3 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=NUM_22:11!2|MId=o040220110021|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 3 עָם֙ עַם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 dislocated _ Gloss=people|Ref=NUM_22:11!2|MId=o040220110022|Strong=5971 4-5 הַיֹּצֵ֣א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 הַ הַ SCONJ _ _ 5 mark _ Gloss=[which|Ref=NUM_22:11!3|MId=o040220110031|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 5 יֹּצֵ֣א יָצָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 3 acl:relcl _ Gloss=has].come.out|Ref=NUM_22:11!3|MId=o040220110032|Strong=3318|Frame=A0:040220110022;|Type=participle_active 6-7 מִמִּצְרַ֔יִם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=NUM_22:11!4|MId=o040220110041|Strong=4480 7 מִּצְרַ֔יִם מִצְרַיִם PROPN _ _ 5 obl _ Gloss=Egypt|Ref=NUM_22:11!4|MId=o040220110042|Strong=4714 8-9 וַיְכַ֖ס _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 9 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NUM_22:11!5|MId=o040220110051|Strong=2050b 9 יְכַ֖ס כָּסָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=it.has.covered|Ref=NUM_22:11!5|MId=o040220110052|Strong=3680|Frame=A0:040220110022;A1:040220110071;|Type=wayyiqtol 10 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=NUM_22:11!6|MId=o040220110061|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 11 עֵ֣ין עַיִן NOUN _ Number=Sing 9 obj _ Gloss=the.eye|Ref=NUM_22:11!7|MId=o040220110071|Strong=5869 12-13 הָאָ֑רֶץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 13 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=NUM_22:11!8|MId=o040220110081|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 13 אָ֑רֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 11 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.land|Ref=NUM_22:11!8|MId=o040220110082|Strong=0776 14 עַתָּ֗ה עַתָּה ADV _ _ 15 advmod _ Gloss=now|Ref=NUM_22:11!9|MId=o040220110091|Strong=6258 15-16 לְכָ֤ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 לְכ הלך VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 9 parataxis _ Gloss=come|Ref=NUM_22:11!10|MId=o040220110101|Strong=1980|Frame=A0:040220100021;|Type=imperative 16 ָ֤ה ה X _ _ 15 nmod _ Gloss=|Ref=NUM_22:11!10|MId=o040220110102|Strong=1886j|Type=paragogic_he 17-18 קָֽבָה־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 קָֽב קָבַב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 9 parataxis _ Gloss=curse|Ref=NUM_22:11!11|MId=o040220110111|Strong=6895|Frame=A0:040220100021;A1:040220110132;|Type=imperative 18 ָה־ ה X _ _ 17 nmod _ Gloss=|Ref=NUM_22:11!11|MId=o040220110112|Strong=1886j|Type=paragogic_he 19-20 לִּי֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 לּ לְ ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=NUM_22:11!12|MId=o040220110121|Strong=3807a 20 ִי֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 17 obl _ Gloss=me|Ref=NUM_22:11!12|MId=o040220110122|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 21-22 אֹת֔וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 אֹת אֵת ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=|Ref=NUM_22:11!13|MId=o040220110131|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 22 ֔וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 17 obj _ Gloss=it|Ref=NUM_22:11!13|MId=o040220110132|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 23 אוּלַ֥י אוּלַי ADV _ _ 24 advmod _ Gloss=perhaps|Ref=NUM_22:11!14|MId=o040220110141|Strong=0194 24 אוּכַ֛ל יָכֹל VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 30 parataxis _ Gloss=I.will.be.able|Ref=NUM_22:11!15|MId=o040220110151|Strong=3201|Frame=A0:040220100051;|Type=yiqtol 25-26 לְהִלָּ֥חֶם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 26 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=NUM_22:11!16|MId=o040220110161|Strong=3807a 26 הִלָּ֥חֶם לָחַם VERB _ HebBinyan=NIPHAL 24 xcomp _ Gloss=engage.in.battle|Ref=NUM_22:11!16|MId=o040220110162|Strong=3898|Frame=A0:040220100051;|Type=infinitive_construct 27-28 בּ֖וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 בּ בְּ ADP _ _ 28 case _ Gloss=against|Ref=NUM_22:11!17|MId=o040220110171|Strong=0871a 28 ֖וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 26 obl _ Gloss=it|Ref=NUM_22:11!17|MId=o040220110172|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 29-31 וְגֵרַשְׁתִּֽיו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 29 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 30 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NUM_22:11!18|MId=o040220110181|Strong=2050b 30 גֵרַשְׁתִּֽי גָּרַשׁ VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=1 9 parataxis _ Gloss=I|Ref=NUM_22:11!18|MId=o040220110182|Strong=1644|Frame=A0:040220100051;A1:040220110183;|Type=weqatal 31 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 30 obj _ Gloss=will.drive.it.out|Ref=NUM_22:11!18|MId=o040220110183|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 32 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 31 punct _ Ref=NUM_22:11!18 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
