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 — ye — and what happens in the verse to Nazirites wine, prophets, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the Aramaic of Targum Jonathan 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 9 chapters of Amos on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וַתַּשְׁק֥וּ אֶת־הַנְּזִרִ֖ים יָ֑יִן וְעַל־הַנְּבִיאִים֙ צִוִּיתֶ֣ם לֵאמֹ֔ר לֹ֖א תִּנָּבְאֽוּ׃ [But ye gave the Nazirites wine to drink; and commanded the prophets, saying: 'Prophesy not.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/AMO.27/) ## 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:AMO:26 # text = וַתַּשְׁק֥וּ אֶת־הַנְּזִרִ֖ים יָ֑יִן וְעַל־הַנְּבִיאִים֙ צִוִּיתֶ֣ם לֵאמֹ֔ר לֹ֖א תִּנָּבְאֽוּ׃ # verse = AMO.2.12 1-2 וַתַּשְׁק֥וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=AMO_2:12!1|MId=o300020120011|Strong=2050b 2 תַּשְׁק֥וּ שָׁקָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Plur|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=you.made.drink|Ref=AMO_2:12!1|MId=o300020120012|Strong=8248|Frame=AA:300020110091;A0:300020120032;A1:300020120041;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=AMO_2:12!2|MId=o300020120021|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 4-5 הַנְּזִרִ֖ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 5 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=AMO_2:12!3|MId=o300020120031|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 5 נְּזִרִ֖ים נָזִיר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 2 obj _ Gloss=Nazirites|Ref=AMO_2:12!3|MId=o300020120032|Strong=5139 6 יָ֑יִן יַיִן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 xcomp _ Gloss=wine|Ref=AMO_2:12!4|MId=o300020120041|Strong=3196 7-8 וְעַל־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 11 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=AMO_2:12!5|MId=o300020120051|Strong=2050b 8 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=AMO_2:12!5|MId=o300020120052|Strong=5921 9-10 הַנְּבִיאִים֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 10 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=AMO_2:12!6|MId=o300020120061|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 10 נְּבִיאִים֙ נָבִיא NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 11 obl _ Gloss=prophets|Ref=AMO_2:12!6|MId=o300020120062|Strong=5030 11 צִוִּיתֶ֣ם צָוָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Plur|Person=2 2 conj _ Gloss=you.commanded|Ref=AMO_2:12!7|MId=o300020120071|Strong=6680|Frame=A0:300020110091;|Type=qatal 12-13 לֵאמֹ֔ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 לֵ לְ ADP _ ExtPos=SCONJ 15 mark _ Gloss=(cmp)|Ref=AMO_2:12!8|MId=o300020120081|Strong=3807a 13 אמֹ֔ר אָמַר VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 12 fixed _ Gloss=|Ref=AMO_2:12!8|MId=o300020120082|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:300020110091;|Type=infinitive_construct 14 לֹ֖א לֹא ADV _ _ 15 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=AMO_2:12!9|MId=o300020120091|Strong=3808|Type=negative 15 תִּנָּבְאֽוּ נָבָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 11 ccomp _ Gloss=you.must.prophesy|Ref=AMO_2:12!10|MId=o300020120101|Strong=5012|Frame=A0:300020120062;|Type=yiqtol|SpaceAfter=No 16 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 15 punct _ Ref=AMO_2:12!10 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: request - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: yes - indirect: yes - the frame alone: decl · narrate · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | תַּשְׁקוּ *you made drink* | wayyiqtol · hiphil | נְּזִרִים *Nazirites* | יָיִן *wine* | | | | צִוִּיתֶם *you commanded* | qatal · piel | | | | | | אמֹר | infinitive construct · qal | | | | | | **not** תִּנָּבְאֽוּ *you must prophesy* | yiqtol · niphal | נְּבִיאִים *prophets* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
