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 — hand, LORD — and what happens in the verse to Moses, LORD, 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. עַל־פִּ֨י יְהוָ֜ה פָּקַ֤ד אוֹתָם֙ בְּיַד־מֹשֶׁ֔ה אִ֥ישׁ אִ֛ישׁ עַל־עֲבֹדָת֖וֹ וְעַל־מַשָּׂא֑וֹ וּפְקֻדָ֕יו אֲשֶׁר־צִוָּ֥ה יְהוָ֖ה אֶת־מֹשֶֽׁה׃פ [According to the commandment of the LORD they were appointed by the hand of Moses, every one to his service, and to his burden; they were also numbered, as the LORD commanded Moses.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/NUM.189/) ## 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:187 # text = עַל־פִּ֨י יְהוָ֜ה פָּקַ֤ד אוֹתָם֙ בְּיַד־מֹשֶׁ֔ה אִ֥ישׁ אִ֛ישׁ עַל־עֲבֹדָת֖וֹ וְעַל־מַשָּׂא֑וֹ וּפְקֻדָ֕יו אֲשֶׁר־צִוָּ֥ה יְהוָ֖ה אֶת־מֹשֶֽׁה׃פ # verse = NUM.4.49 1 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 2 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=NUM_4:49!1|MId=o040040490011|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 2 פִּ֨י פֶּה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 4 obl _ Gloss=the.mouth|Ref=NUM_4:49!2|MId=o040040490021|Strong=6310 3 יְהוָ֜ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 2 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=NUM_4:49!3|MId=o040040490031|Strong=3068 4 פָּקַ֤ד פָּקַד VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=someone.enrolled|Ref=NUM_4:49!4|MId=o040040490041|Strong=6485|Frame=A0:040040460051;A1:040040490052;|Type=qatal 5-6 אוֹתָם֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 אוֹת אֵת ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=|Ref=NUM_4:49!5|MId=o040040490051|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 6 ָם֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 4 obj _ Gloss=them|Ref=NUM_4:49!5|MId=o040040490052|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 7-8 בְּיַד־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=by|Ref=NUM_4:49!6|MId=o040040490061|Strong=0871a 8 יַד־ יָד NOUN _ Number=Sing 4 obl _ Gloss=the.hand|Ref=NUM_4:49!6|MId=o040040490062|Strong=3027 9 מֹשֶׁ֔ה מֹשֶׁה PROPN _ _ 8 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Moses|Ref=NUM_4:49!7|MId=o040040490071|Strong=4872 10 אִ֥ישׁ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 4 parataxis _ Gloss=a.man|Ref=NUM_4:49!8|MId=o040040490081|Strong=0376 11 אִ֛ישׁ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 10 conj _ Gloss=a.man|Ref=NUM_4:49!9|MId=o040040490091|Strong=0376 12 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=NUM_4:49!10|MId=o040040490101|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 13-14 עֲבֹדָת֖וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 עֲבֹדָת עֲבֹדָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 10 obl _ Gloss=service|Ref=NUM_4:49!11|MId=o040040490111|Strong=5656 14 ֖וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 13 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=NUM_4:49!11|MId=o040040490112|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 15-16 וְעַל־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 17 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NUM_4:49!12|MId=o040040490121|Strong=2050b 16 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=NUM_4:49!12|MId=o040040490122|Strong=5921 17-18 מַשָּׂא֑וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 מַשָּׂא מַשָּׂא NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 13 conj _ Gloss=burden|Ref=NUM_4:49!13|MId=o040040490131|Strong=4853 18 ֑וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 17 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=NUM_4:49!13|MId=o040040490132|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 19-21 וּפְקֻדָ֕יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 20 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NUM_4:49!14|MId=o040040490141|Strong=2050b 20 פְקֻדָ֕י פָּקַד VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur 4 conj _ Gloss=his.appointed|Ref=NUM_4:49!14|MId=o040040490142|Strong=6485|Type=participle_passive 21 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 20 nmod:poss _ Gloss=[things]|Ref=NUM_4:49!14|MId=o040040490143|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 22 אֲשֶׁר־ אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 23 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=NUM_4:49!15|MId=o040040490151|Strong=0834|Type=relative|SpaceAfter=No 23 צִוָּ֥ה צָוָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=3 20 acl:relcl _ Gloss=he.had.commanded|Ref=NUM_4:49!16|MId=o040040490161|Strong=6680|Frame=A0:040040490171;A1:040040490191;|Type=qatal 24 יְהוָ֖ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 23 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=NUM_4:49!17|MId=o040040490171|Strong=3068 25 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 26 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=NUM_4:49!18|MId=o040040490181|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 26 מֹשֶֽׁה מֹשֶׁה PROPN _ _ 23 obj _ Gloss=Moses|Ref=NUM_4:49!19|MId=o040040490191|Strong=4872|SpaceAfter=No 27 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=NUM_4:49!19|SpaceAfter=No 28 פ פ PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=NUM_4:49!19 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | פָּקַד *someone enrolled* | qatal · qal | | ָם *them* | | | | צִוָּה *he had commanded* | qatal · piel | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | מֹשֶֽׁה *Moses* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
