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, LORD — and what happens in the verse to evil, good, justice, gate, 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. שִׂנְאוּ־רָע֙ וְאֶ֣הֱבוּ ט֔וֹב וְהַצִּ֥יגוּ בַשַּׁ֖עַר מִשְׁפָּ֑ט אוּלַ֗י יֶֽחֱנַ֛ן יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֵֽי־צְבָא֖וֹת שְׁאֵרִ֥ית יוֹסֵֽף׃ס [Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish justice in the gate; it may be that the LORD, the God of hosts, will be gracious unto the remnant of Joseph.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/AMO.79/) ## 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:73 # text = שִׂנְאוּ־רָע֙ וְאֶ֣הֱבוּ ט֔וֹב וְהַצִּ֥יגוּ בַשַּׁ֖עַר מִשְׁפָּ֑ט אוּלַ֗י יֶֽחֱנַ֛ן יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֵֽי־צְבָא֖וֹת שְׁאֵרִ֥ית יוֹסֵֽף׃ס # verse = AMO.5.15 1 שִׂנְאוּ־ שָׂנֵא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=hate|Ref=AMO_5:15!1|MId=o300050150011|Strong=8130|Frame=A0:300050070012;A1:300050150021;|Type=imperative|SpaceAfter=No 2 רָע֙ רַע ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 1 obj _ Gloss=evil|Ref=AMO_5:15!2|MId=o300050150021|Strong=7451|Type=adjective 3-4 וְאֶ֣הֱבוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 4 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=AMO_5:15!3|MId=o300050150031|Strong=2050b 4 אֶ֣הֱבוּ אָהֵב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 1 conj _ Gloss=love|Ref=AMO_5:15!3|MId=o300050150032|Strong=0157|Frame=A0:300050070012;A1:300050150041;|Type=imperative 5 ט֔וֹב טוֹב ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 4 obj _ Gloss=good|Ref=AMO_5:15!4|MId=o300050150041|Strong=2896|Type=adjective 6-7 וְהַצִּ֥יגוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 7 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=AMO_5:15!5|MId=o300050150051|Strong=2050b 7 הַצִּ֥יגוּ יָצַג VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Plur|Person=2 1 conj _ Gloss=set.up|Ref=AMO_5:15!5|MId=o300050150052|Strong=3322|Frame=AA:300050070012;A0:300050150071;|Type=imperative 8-10 בַשַּׁ֖עַר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 בַ בְּ ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=AMO_5:15!6|MId=o300050150061|Strong=0871a 9 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 10 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=AMO_5:15!6|MId=o300050150061ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 10 שַּׁ֖עַר שַׁעַר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 7 obl _ Gloss=gate|Ref=AMO_5:15!6|MId=o300050150062|Strong=8179 11 מִשְׁפָּ֑ט מִשְׁפָּט NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 7 obj _ Gloss=justice|Ref=AMO_5:15!7|MId=o300050150071|Strong=4941 12 אוּלַ֗י אוּלַי ADV _ _ 13 advmod _ Gloss=perhaps|Ref=AMO_5:15!8|MId=o300050150081|Strong=0194 13 יֶֽחֱנַ֛ן חָנַן VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 1 parataxis _ Gloss=he.will.show.favor.to|Ref=AMO_5:15!9|MId=o300050150091|Strong=2603|Frame=A0:300050150101;A1:300050150131;|Type=yiqtol 14 יְהוָ֥ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 13 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=AMO_5:15!10|MId=o300050150101|Strong=3068 15 אֱלֹהֵֽי־ אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 14 appos _ Gloss=God|Ref=AMO_5:15!11|MId=o300050150111|Strong=0430|SpaceAfter=No 16 צְבָא֖וֹת צָבָא NOUN _ Number=Plur 15 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.hosts|Ref=AMO_5:15!12|MId=o300050150121|Strong=6635 17 שְׁאֵרִ֥ית שְׁאֵרִית NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 13 obj _ Gloss=the.remnant|Ref=AMO_5:15!13|MId=o300050150131|Strong=7611 18 יוֹסֵֽף יוֹסֵף PROPN _ _ 17 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Joseph|Ref=AMO_5:15!14|MId=o300050150141|Strong=3130|SpaceAfter=No 19 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 18 punct _ Ref=AMO_5:15!14|SpaceAfter=No 20 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 18 punct _ Ref=AMO_5:15!14 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: command - act: request - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | שִׂנְאוּ־ *hate* | imperative · qal | | רָע *evil* | | | | אֶהֱבוּ *love* | imperative · qal | | טוֹב *good* | | | | הַצִּיגוּ *set up* | imperative · hiphil | מִשְׁפָּט *justice* | | | | | יֶֽחֱנַן *he will show favor to* | yiqtol · qal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | שְׁאֵרִית *the remnant* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
