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 — Ezra — and what happens in the verse to heart, law, statutes, Israel, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the English of the Jewish Publication Society's 1917 translation, each English sentence with a tree of its own. It is one of the 10 chapters of Ezra on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. כִּ֤י עֶזְרָא֙ הֵכִ֣ין לְבָב֔וֹ לִדְר֛וֹשׁ אֶת־תּוֹרַ֥ת יְהוָ֖ה וְלַעֲשֹׂ֑ת וּלְלַמֵּ֥ד בְּיִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל חֹ֥ק וּמִשְׁפָּֽט׃ס [For Ezra had set his heart to seek the law of the LORD, and to do it, and to teach in Israel statutes and ordinances.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/EZR.170/) ## 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:EZR:114 # text = כִּ֤י עֶזְרָא֙ הֵכִ֣ין לְבָב֔וֹ לִדְר֛וֹשׁ אֶת־תּוֹרַ֥ת יְהוָ֖ה וְלַעֲשֹׂ֑ת וּלְלַמֵּ֥ד בְּיִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל חֹ֥ק וּמִשְׁפָּֽט׃ס # verse = EZR.7.10 1 כִּ֤י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 3 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=EZR_7:10!1|MId=o150070100011|Strong=3588 2 עֶזְרָא֙ עֶזְרָא PROPN _ _ 3 nsubj _ Gloss=Ezra|Ref=EZR_7:10!2|MId=o150070100021|Strong=5830 3 הֵכִ֣ין כּוּן VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.had.directed|Ref=EZR_7:10!3|MId=o150070100031|Strong=3559|Frame=AA:150070100021;A0:150070100041;|Type=qatal 4-5 לְבָב֔וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 לְבָב לֵבָב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 obj _ Gloss=heart|Ref=EZR_7:10!4|MId=o150070100041|Strong=3824 5 ֔וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 4 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=EZR_7:10!4|MId=o150070100042|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 6-7 לִדְר֛וֹשׁ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EZR_7:10!5|MId=o150070100051|Strong=3807a 7 דְר֛וֹשׁ דָּרַשׁ VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 3 advcl _ Gloss=study|Ref=EZR_7:10!5|MId=o150070100052|Strong=1875|Frame=A0:150070100021;A1:150070100071;|Type=infinitive_construct 8 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=EZR_7:10!6|MId=o150070100061|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 9 תּוֹרַ֥ת תּוֹרָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 7 obj _ Gloss=the.law|Ref=EZR_7:10!7|MId=o150070100071|Strong=8451 10 יְהוָ֖ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 9 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=EZR_7:10!8|MId=o150070100081|Strong=3068 11-13 וְלַעֲשֹׂ֑ת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 13 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZR_7:10!9|MId=o150070100091|Strong=2050b 12 לַ לְ ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EZR_7:10!9|MId=o150070100092|Strong=3807a 13 עֲשֹׂ֑ת עָשָׂה VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 7 conj _ Gloss=do.[it]|Ref=EZR_7:10!9|MId=o150070100093|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:150070100021;A1:150070100071;|Type=infinitive_construct 14-16 וּלְלַמֵּ֥ד _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 16 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZR_7:10!10|MId=o150070100101|Strong=2050b 15 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EZR_7:10!10|MId=o150070100102|Strong=3807a 16 לַמֵּ֥ד לָמַד VERB _ HebBinyan=PIEL 7 conj _ Gloss=teach|Ref=EZR_7:10!10|MId=o150070100103|Strong=3925|Frame=A0:150070100021;A1:150070100121;150070100132;|Type=infinitive_construct 17-18 בְּיִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=EZR_7:10!11|MId=o150070100111|Strong=0871a 18 יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל יִשְׂרָאֵל PROPN _ _ 16 obl _ Gloss=Israel|Ref=EZR_7:10!11|MId=o150070100112|Strong=3478 19 חֹ֥ק חֹק NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 16 obj _ Gloss=decree|Ref=EZR_7:10!12|MId=o150070100121|Strong=2706 20-21 וּמִשְׁפָּֽט _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 21 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZR_7:10!13|MId=o150070100131|Strong=2050b 21 מִשְׁפָּֽט מִשְׁפָּט NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 19 conj _ Gloss=judgment|Ref=EZR_7:10!13|MId=o150070100132|Strong=4941 22 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 21 punct _ Ref=EZR_7:10!13|SpaceAfter=No 23 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 21 punct _ Ref=EZR_7:10!13 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | הֵכִין *he had directed* | qatal · hiphil | לְבָב *heart* | | | עֶזְרָא *Ezra* | | דְרוֹשׁ *study* | infinitive construct · qal | עֶזְרָא *Ezra* | תּוֹרַת *the law* | | | | עֲשֹׂת *do \[it\]* | infinitive construct · qal | עֶזְרָא *Ezra* | תּוֹרַת *the law* | | | | לַמֵּד *teach* | infinitive construct · piel | עֶזְרָא *Ezra* | חֹק *decree* + מִשְׁפָּֽט *judgment* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
