# Lamentations 1:12 אֵיכָה

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** you, soul, pain, LORD, my · **What happens:** let, not come, pass by, see, be, do · **To what, where:** pain, me

<!-- .vabout -->
This is Lamentations 1:12 from Mova's open Bible corpus, the Tanakh in three languages (Ketuvim — the Writings). 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, soul, pain, LORD, my — and what happens in the verse to pain, me, 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 5 chapters of Lamentations on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

['Let it not come unto you, all ye that pass by!](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/LAM.13/) [Behold, and see if there be any pain like unto my pain, which is done unto me, wherewith the LORD hath afflicted me in the day of His fierce anger.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/LAM.14/)

## The tree {#tree}

<!-- .note -->
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.

## Pragmatics {#pragmatics}

<!-- sa -->
- form: statement
- act: assert
- voice: character
- speech: inside a quote begun earlier
- negation: yes

<!-- .fr -->
| verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| הַבִּיטוּ *look* | imperative · hiphil | עֹבְרֵי *\[you who\] pass by* |  |  |  |
| רְאוּ *see* | imperative · qal | עֹבְרֵי *\[you who\] pass by* |  |  |  |

<!-- .note -->
MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant. A0 is the one who acts, A1 what the act is done to or is about, A2 a further participant; AA, with a causative verb, the one who makes it happen.

## The Targum {#onkelos}

<!-- .varc dir=rtl lang=arc -->
אַשְׁבְּעִית לְכוֹן כָּל דְעָבְרִין בְּאוֹרְחָא זוּרוּ הָכָא אִסְתַּכְּלוּ וַחֲזוּ אִין אִית כֵּיבָא כְּכֵיבִי דְאִסְתְּקִיף לִי דִתְבַר יְיָ יָתִי בְּיוֹם תְּקוֹף רוּגְזֵיהּ:

<!-- .note -->
The Aramaic translation read beside the Hebrew. Text only: Mova has no Aramaic parser yet.
