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 exactions, houses, pleasant vineyards, wine, wheat, 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. לָ֠כֵן יַ֣עַן בּוֹשַׁסְכֶ֞ם עַל־דָּ֗ל וּמַשְׂאַת־בַּר֙ תִּקְח֣וּ מִמֶּ֔נּוּ בָּתֵּ֥י גָזִ֛ית בְּנִיתֶ֖ם וְלֹא־תֵ֣שְׁבוּ בָ֑ם כַּרְמֵי־חֶ֣מֶד נְטַעְתֶּ֔ם וְלֹ֥א תִשְׁתּ֖וּ אֶת־יֵינָֽם׃ [Therefore, because ye trample upon the poor, and take from him exactions of wheat; ye have built houses of hewn stone, but ye shall not dwell in them, ye have planted pleasant vineyards, but ye shall not drink wine thereof.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/AMO.75/) ## 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:69 # text = לָ֠כֵן יַ֣עַן בּוֹשַׁסְכֶ֞ם עַל־דָּ֗ל וּמַשְׂאַת־בַּר֙ תִּקְח֣וּ מִמֶּ֔נּוּ בָּתֵּ֥י גָזִ֛ית בְּנִיתֶ֖ם וְלֹא־תֵ֣שְׁבוּ בָ֑ם כַּרְמֵי־חֶ֣מֶד נְטַעְתֶּ֔ם וְלֹ֥א תִשְׁתּ֖וּ אֶת־יֵינָֽם׃ # verse = AMO.5.11 1-2 לָ֠כֵן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 לָ֠ לָכֵן ADP _ _ 2 case _ Gloss=therefore|Ref=AMO_5:11!1|MId=o300050110011|Strong=3807a 2 כֵן כֵּן ADV _ _ 0 root _ Gloss=|Ref=AMO_5:11!1|MId=o300050110012|Strong=3651 3 יַ֣עַן יַעַן ADV _ _ 24 dislocated _ Gloss=because|Ref=AMO_5:11!2|MId=o300050110021|Strong=3282 4-5 בּוֹשַׁסְכֶ֞ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 בּוֹשַׁס בָּשַׁס VERB _ HebBinyan=POEL 3 acl _ Gloss=trample|Ref=AMO_5:11!3|MId=o300050110031|Strong=1318|Frame=A0:300050110032;|Type=infinitive_construct 5 ְכֶ֞ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 4 nsubj _ Gloss=you|Ref=AMO_5:11!3|MId=o300050110032|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 6 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=AMO_5:11!4|MId=o300050110041|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 7 דָּ֗ל דַּל ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 4 obl _ Gloss=[the].poor|Ref=AMO_5:11!5|MId=o300050110051|Strong=1800|Type=adjective 8-9 וּמַשְׂאַת־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 11 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=AMO_5:11!6|MId=o300050110061|Strong=2050b 9 מַשְׂאַת־ מַשְׂאֵת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 11 obj _ Gloss=tribute|Ref=AMO_5:11!6|MId=o300050110062|Strong=4864 10 בַּר֙ בַּר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.grain|Ref=AMO_5:11!7|MId=o300050110071|Strong=1250 11 תִּקְח֣וּ לָקַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 4 conj _ Gloss=you.take|Ref=AMO_5:11!8|MId=o300050110081|Strong=3947|Frame=A0:300050070012;A1:300050110062;|Type=yiqtol 12-13 מִמֶּ֔נּוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 מִמּ מִן ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=AMO_5:11!9|MId=o300050110091|Strong=4480 13 ֶ֔נּוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 11 obl _ Gloss=him|Ref=AMO_5:11!9|MId=o300050110092|Strong=5105b|Type=pronominal 14 בָּתֵּ֥י בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 16 obj _ Gloss=houses|Ref=AMO_5:11!10|MId=o300050110101|Strong=1004 15 גָזִ֛ית גָּזִית NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 14 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.hewn.[stone]|Ref=AMO_5:11!11|MId=o300050110111|Strong=1496 16 בְּנִיתֶ֖ם בָּנָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 24 parataxis _ Gloss=you.have.built|Ref=AMO_5:11!12|MId=o300050110121|Strong=1129|Frame=A0:300050070012;A1:300050110101;|Type=qatal 17-18 וְלֹא־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 19 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=AMO_5:11!13|MId=o300050110131|Strong=2050b 18 לֹא־ לֹא ADV _ _ 19 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=AMO_5:11!13|MId=o300050110132|Strong=3808|Type=negative 19 תֵ֣שְׁבוּ יָשַׁב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 16 conj _ Gloss=you.will.dwell|Ref=AMO_5:11!14|MId=o300050110141|Strong=3427|Frame=A0:300050070012;|Type=yiqtol 20-21 בָ֑ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 ב בְּ ADP _ _ 21 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=AMO_5:11!15|MId=o300050110151|Strong=0871a 21 ָ֑ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 19 obl _ Gloss=them|Ref=AMO_5:11!15|MId=o300050110152|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 22 כַּרְמֵי־ כֶּרֶם NOUN _ Number=Plur 24 obj _ Gloss=vineyards|Ref=AMO_5:11!16|MId=o300050110161|Strong=3754|SpaceAfter=No 23 חֶ֣מֶד חֶמֶד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 22 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.desire|Ref=AMO_5:11!17|MId=o300050110171|Strong=2531 24 נְטַעְתֶּ֔ם נָטַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 2 parataxis _ Gloss=you.have.planted|Ref=AMO_5:11!18|MId=o300050110181|Strong=5193|Frame=A0:300050070012;A1:300050110161;|Type=qatal 25-26 וְלֹ֥א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 27 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=AMO_5:11!19|MId=o300050110191|Strong=2050b 26 לֹ֥א לֹא ADV _ _ 27 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=AMO_5:11!19|MId=o300050110192|Strong=3808|Type=negative 27 תִשְׁתּ֖וּ שָׁתָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 24 conj _ Gloss=you.will.drink|Ref=AMO_5:11!20|MId=o300050110201|Strong=8354|Frame=A0:300050070012;A1:300050110221;|Type=yiqtol 28 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 29 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=AMO_5:11!21|MId=o300050110211|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 29-30 יֵינָֽם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 29 יֵינ יַיִן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 27 obj _ Gloss=wine|Ref=AMO_5:11!22|MId=o300050110221|Strong=3196 30 ָֽם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 29 nmod:poss _ Gloss=their|Ref=AMO_5:11!22|MId=o300050110222|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 31 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 30 punct _ Ref=AMO_5:11!22 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
