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, palmer worm, ye, LORD — and what happens in the verse to you, multitude, 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. הִכֵּ֣יתִי אֶתְכֶם֮ בַּשִּׁדָּפ֣וֹן וּבַיֵּרָקוֹן֒ הַרְבּ֨וֹת גַּנּוֹתֵיכֶ֧ם וְכַרְמֵיכֶ֛ם וּתְאֵנֵיכֶ֥ם וְזֵיתֵיכֶ֖ם יֹאכַ֣ל הַגָּזָ֑ם וְלֹֽא־שַׁבְתֶּ֥ם עָדַ֖י נְאֻם־יְהוָֽה׃ס [I have smitten you with blasting and mildew; the multitude of your gardens and your vineyards and your fig-trees and your olive-trees hath the palmer-worm devoured; yet have ye not returned unto Me, saith the LORD.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/AMO.60/) ## 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:54 # text = הִכֵּ֣יתִי אֶתְכֶם֮ בַּשִּׁדָּפ֣וֹן וּבַיֵּרָקוֹן֒ הַרְבּ֨וֹת גַּנּוֹתֵיכֶ֧ם וְכַרְמֵיכֶ֛ם וּתְאֵנֵיכֶ֥ם וְזֵיתֵיכֶ֖ם יֹאכַ֣ל הַגָּזָ֑ם וְלֹֽא־שַׁבְתֶּ֥ם עָדַ֖י נְאֻם־יְהוָֽה׃ס # verse = AMO.4.9 1 הִכֵּ֣יתִי נָכָה VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=1 0 root _ Gloss=I.struck|Ref=AMO_4:9!1|MId=o300040090011|Strong=5221|Frame=AA:300040080161;A0:300040090022;|Type=qatal 2-3 אֶתְכֶם֮ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 2 אֶת אֵת ADP _ _ 3 case _ Gloss=|Ref=AMO_4:9!2|MId=o300040090021|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 3 ְכֶם֮ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 1 obj _ Gloss=you|Ref=AMO_4:9!2|MId=o300040090022|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 4-6 בַּשִּׁדָּפ֣וֹן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=AMO_4:9!3|MId=o300040090031|Strong=0871a 5 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 6 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=AMO_4:9!3|MId=o300040090031ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 6 שִּׁדָּפ֣וֹן שִׁדָּפוֹן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 1 obl _ Gloss=blight|Ref=AMO_4:9!3|MId=o300040090032|Strong=7711a 7-10 וּבַיֵּרָקוֹן֒ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 10 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=AMO_4:9!4|MId=o300040090041|Strong=2050b 8 בַ בְּ ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=AMO_4:9!4|MId=o300040090042|Strong=0871a 9 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 10 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=AMO_4:9!4|MId=o300040090042ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 10 יֵּרָקוֹן֒ יֵרָקוֹן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 conj _ Gloss=mildew|Ref=AMO_4:9!4|MId=o300040090043|Strong=3420 11 הַרְבּ֨וֹת רָבָה VERB _ HebBinyan=HIPHIL 23 obl:npmod _ Gloss=to.make.many|Ref=AMO_4:9!5|MId=o300040090051|Strong=7235|Type=infinitive_construct 12-13 גַּנּוֹתֵיכֶ֧ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 גַּנּוֹתֵי גַּנָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 23 obj _ Gloss=gardens|Ref=AMO_4:9!6|MId=o300040090061|Strong=1593 13 כֶ֧ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 12 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=AMO_4:9!6|MId=o300040090062|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 14-16 וְכַרְמֵיכֶ֛ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 15 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=AMO_4:9!7|MId=o300040090071|Strong=2050b 15 כַרְמֵי כֶּרֶם NOUN _ Number=Plur 12 conj _ Gloss=vineyards|Ref=AMO_4:9!7|MId=o300040090072|Strong=3754 16 כֶ֛ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 15 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=AMO_4:9!7|MId=o300040090073|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 17-19 וּתְאֵנֵיכֶ֥ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 18 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=AMO_4:9!8|MId=o300040090081|Strong=2050b 18 תְאֵנֵי תְּאֵנָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 12 conj _ Gloss=your.fig|Ref=AMO_4:9!8|MId=o300040090082|Strong=8384 19 כֶ֥ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 18 nmod:poss _ Gloss=trees|Ref=AMO_4:9!8|MId=o300040090083|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 20-22 וְזֵיתֵיכֶ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 21 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=AMO_4:9!9|MId=o300040090091|Strong=2050b 21 זֵיתֵי זַיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 12 conj _ Gloss=your.olive|Ref=AMO_4:9!9|MId=o300040090092|Strong=2132 22 כֶ֖ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 21 nmod:poss _ Gloss=trees|Ref=AMO_4:9!9|MId=o300040090093|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 23 יֹאכַ֣ל אָכַל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 1 parataxis _ Gloss=it.ate|Ref=AMO_4:9!10|MId=o300040090101|Strong=0398|Frame=A1:300040090061;300040090072;300040090082;300040090092;A0:300040090112;|Type=yiqtol 24-25 הַגָּזָ֑ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 25 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=AMO_4:9!11|MId=o300040090111|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 25 גָּזָ֑ם גָּזָם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 23 nsubj _ Gloss=locust|Ref=AMO_4:9!11|MId=o300040090112|Strong=1501 26-27 וְלֹֽא־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 28 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=AMO_4:9!12|MId=o300040090121|Strong=2050b 27 לֹֽא־ לֹא ADV _ _ 28 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=AMO_4:9!12|MId=o300040090122|Strong=3808|Type=negative 28 שַׁבְתֶּ֥ם שׁוּב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 1 conj _ Gloss=you.returned|Ref=AMO_4:9!13|MId=o300040090131|Strong=7725|Frame=A0:300040050101;|Type=qatal 29-30 עָדַ֖י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 29 עָד עַד ADP _ _ 30 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=AMO_4:9!14|MId=o300040090141|Strong=5704 30 ַ֖י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 28 obl _ Gloss=me|Ref=AMO_4:9!14|MId=o300040090142|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 31 נְאֻם־ נְאֻם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 1 parataxis _ Gloss=the.utterance|Ref=AMO_4:9!15|MId=o300040090151|Strong=5002|SpaceAfter=No 32 יְהוָֽה יהוה PROPN _ _ 31 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=AMO_4:9!16|MId=o300040090161|Strong=3068|SpaceAfter=No 33 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 32 punct _ Ref=AMO_4:9!16|SpaceAfter=No 34 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 32 punct _ Ref=AMO_4:9!16 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
