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 — I, wicked, they, this — and what happens in the verse to wicked, rest, right, holy place, city, vanity, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the Aramaic of the Targum 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 12 chapters of Ecclesiastes on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וּבְכֵ֡ן רָאִיתִי֩ רְשָׁעִ֨ים קְבֻרִ֜ים וָבָ֗אוּ וּמִמְּק֤וֹם קָדוֹשׁ֙ יְהַלֵּ֔כוּ וְיִֽשְׁתַּכְּח֥וּ בָעִ֖יר אֲשֶׁ֣ר כֵּן־עָשׂ֑וּ גַּם־זֶ֖ה הָֽבֶל׃ [And so I saw the wicked buried, and they entered into their rest; but they that had done right went away from the holy place, and were forgotten in the city; this also is vanity.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/ECC.162/) ## 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:ECC:152 # text = וּבְכֵ֡ן רָאִיתִי֩ רְשָׁעִ֨ים קְבֻרִ֜ים וָבָ֗אוּ וּמִמְּק֤וֹם קָדוֹשׁ֙ יְהַלֵּ֔כוּ וְיִֽשְׁתַּכְּח֥וּ בָעִ֖יר אֲשֶׁ֣ר כֵּן־עָשׂ֑וּ גַּם־זֶ֖ה הָֽבֶל׃ # verse = ECC.8.10 1-3 וּבְכֵ֡ן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 4 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ECC_8:10!1|MId=o210080100011|Strong=2050b 2 בְ בְּ ADP _ _ 3 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=ECC_8:10!1|MId=o210080100012|Strong=0871a 3 כֵ֡ן כֵּן ADV _ _ 4 obl _ Gloss=such|Ref=ECC_8:10!1|MId=o210080100013|Strong=3651 4 רָאִיתִי֩ רָאָה VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 0 root _ Gloss=I.have.seen|Ref=ECC_8:10!2|MId=o210080100021|Strong=7200|Frame=A0:210070270051;A1:210080100041;|Type=qatal 5 רְשָׁעִ֨ים רָשָׁע ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 6 nsubj _ Gloss=wicked.[people]|Ref=ECC_8:10!3|MId=o210080100031|Strong=7563|Type=adjective 6 קְבֻרִ֜ים קָבַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur 4 ccomp _ Gloss=being.buried|Ref=ECC_8:10!4|MId=o210080100041|Strong=6912|Frame=A1:210080100031;|Type=participle_passive 7-8 וָבָ֗אוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 וָ וְ CCONJ _ _ 8 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ECC_8:10!5|MId=o210080100051|Strong=2050b 8 בָ֗אוּ בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 4 conj _ Gloss=they.came|Ref=ECC_8:10!5|MId=o210080100052|Strong=0935|Frame=A0:210080100031;|Type=qatal 9-11 וּמִמְּק֤וֹם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 13 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ECC_8:10!6|MId=o210080100061|Strong=2050b 10 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=ECC_8:10!6|MId=o210080100062|Strong=4480 11 מְּק֤וֹם מָקוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 13 obl _ Gloss=a.place|Ref=ECC_8:10!6|MId=o210080100063|Strong=4725 12 קָדוֹשׁ֙ קָדוֹשׁ ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 11 amod _ Gloss=of.holy|Ref=ECC_8:10!7|MId=o210080100071|Strong=6918|Type=adjective 13 יְהַלֵּ֔כוּ הָלַךְ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Plur|Person=3 4 conj _ Gloss=they.went|Ref=ECC_8:10!8|MId=o210080100081|Strong=1980|Frame=A0:210080100031;|Type=yiqtol 14-15 וְיִֽשְׁתַּכְּח֥וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 15 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ECC_8:10!9|MId=o210080100091|Strong=2050b 15 יִֽשְׁתַּכְּח֥וּ שָׁכַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HITHPAEL|Number=Plur|Person=3 4 conj _ Gloss=they.will.be.forgotten|Ref=ECC_8:10!9|MId=o210080100092|Strong=7911|Frame=A0:210080100031;|Type=yiqtol 16-18 בָעִ֖יר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 בָ בְּ ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=ECC_8:10!10|MId=o210080100101|Strong=0871a 17 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 18 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=ECC_8:10!10|MId=o210080100101ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 18 עִ֖יר עִיר NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 15 obl _ Gloss=city|Ref=ECC_8:10!10|MId=o210080100102|Strong=5892 19 אֲשֶׁ֣ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 21 mark _ Gloss=where|Ref=ECC_8:10!11|MId=o210080100111|Strong=0834|Type=relative 20 כֵּן־ כֵּן ADJ _ PronType=Dem 21 advmod _ Gloss=right|Ref=ECC_8:10!12|MId=o210080100121|Strong=3651|Type=demonstrative|SpaceAfter=No 21 עָשׂ֑וּ עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 18 acl:relcl _ Gloss=they.had.done|Ref=ECC_8:10!13|MId=o210080100131|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:210080100031;|Type=qatal 22 גַּם־ גַּם ADV _ _ 23 advmod _ Gloss=also|Ref=ECC_8:10!14|MId=o210080100141|Strong=1571|Type=affirmation|SpaceAfter=No 23 זֶ֖ה זֶה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|PronType=Dem 24 nsubj _ Gloss=this|Ref=ECC_8:10!15|MId=o210080100151|Strong=2088|Type=demonstrative 24 הָֽבֶל הֶבֶל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 4 parataxis _ Gloss=[is].futility|Ref=ECC_8:10!16|MId=o210080100161|Strong=1892|SpaceAfter=No 25 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 24 punct _ Ref=ECC_8:10!16 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | רָאִיתִי *I have seen* | qatal · qal | | קְבֻרִים *being buried* | | | | קְבֻרִים *being buried* | participle passive · qal | | רְשָׁעִים *wicked \[people\]* | | | | בָאוּ *they came* | qatal · qal | רְשָׁעִים *wicked \[people\]* | | | | | יְהַלֵּכוּ *they went* | yiqtol · piel | רְשָׁעִים *wicked \[people\]* | | | | | יִֽשְׁתַּכְּחוּ *they will be forgotten* | yiqtol · hithpael | רְשָׁעִים *wicked \[people\]* | | | | | עָשׂוּ *they had done* | qatal · qal | רְשָׁעִים *wicked \[people\]* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
