**Who acts:** hand, transgressions, LORD, strength, I, my · **What happens:** impress, knit together, come up, make, fail, deliver · **To what, where:** yoke, transgressions, neck, strength, me, hands

<!-- .vabout -->
This is Lamentations 1:14 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 — hand, transgressions, LORD, strength, I, my — and what happens in the verse to yoke, transgressions, neck, strength, me, hands, 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.

[The yoke of my transgressions is impressed by His hand; they are knit together, they are come up upon my neck; He hath made my strength to fail; the Lord hath delivered me into their hands, against whom I am not able to stand.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/LAM.16/)

## 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) |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| נִשְׂקַד *it has been bound on* | qatal · niphal |  | עֹל *the yoke* |  |  |

<!-- .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 -->
אִתְיַקֵּר נִיר מְרוֹדִי בִידֵיהּ אִתְיַבְּשׁוּ כְּשִׁיבְשִׁין דְגוּפְנָא סַלְקוּ עַל צַוְורִי אִתְקַל חֵילִי מְסַר יְיָ יָתִי בִידוֹי מַן דְלֵית יָכִין אֲנָא לְמֵיקָם:

The Aramaic translation read beside the Hebrew. Text only: Mova has no Aramaic parser yet.
