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 — and what happens in the verse to captivity, 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 48 chapters of Ezekiel on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וְשַׁבְתִּי֙ אֶת־שְׁבִ֣יתְהֶ֔ן אֶת־שְׁב֤וּת סְדֹם֙ וּבְנוֹתֶ֔יהָ וְאֶת־שְׁב֥וּת שֹׁמְר֖וֹן וּבְנוֹתֶ֑יהָ וּשְׁב֥וּת שְׁבִיתַ֖יִךְ בְּתוֹכָֽהְנָה׃ [And I will turn their captivity, the captivity of Sodom and her daughters, and the captivity of Samaria and her daughters, and the captivity of thy captives in the midst of them;](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/EZK.365/) ## 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:EZK:350 # text = וְשַׁבְתִּי֙ אֶת־שְׁבִ֣יתְהֶ֔ן אֶת־שְׁב֤וּת סְדֹם֙ וּבְנוֹתֶ֔יהָ וְאֶת־שְׁב֥וּת שֹׁמְר֖וֹן וּבְנוֹתֶ֑יהָ וּשְׁב֥וּת שְׁבִיתַ֖יִךְ בְּתוֹכָֽהְנָה׃ # verse = EZK.16.53 1-2 וְשַׁבְתִּי֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_16:53!1|MId=o260160530011|Strong=2050b 2 שַׁבְתִּי֙ שׁוּב VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 0 root _ Gloss=I.will.turn.back|Ref=EZK_16:53!1|MId=o260160530012|Strong=7725|Frame=A0:260160480041;A1:260160530031;260160530152;|Type=weqatal 3 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=EZK_16:53!2|MId=o260160530021|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 4-5 שְׁבִ֣יתְהֶ֔ן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 שְׁבִ֣ית שְׁבִית NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 2 obj _ Gloss=captivity|Ref=EZK_16:53!3|MId=o260160530031|Strong=7622 5 ְהֶ֔ן הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 4 nmod:poss _ Gloss=their|Ref=EZK_16:53!3|MId=o260160530032|Strong=2004|Type=pronominal 6 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=EZK_16:53!4|MId=o260160530041|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 7 שְׁב֤וּת שְׁבוּת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 4 appos _ Gloss=the.captivity|Ref=EZK_16:53!6|MId=o260160530061|Strong=7622 8 סְדֹם֙ סְדֹם PROPN _ _ 7 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Sodom|Ref=EZK_16:53!7|MId=o260160530071|Strong=5467 9-11 וּבְנוֹתֶ֔יהָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 10 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_16:53!8|MId=o260160530081|Strong=2050b 10 בְנוֹתֶ֔י בַּת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 8 conj _ Gloss=daughters|Ref=EZK_16:53!8|MId=o260160530082|Strong=1323 11 הָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 10 nmod:poss _ Gloss=her|Ref=EZK_16:53!8|MId=o260160530083|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 12-13 וְאֶת־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 14 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_16:53!9|MId=o260160530091|Strong=2050b 13 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=EZK_16:53!9|MId=o260160530092|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 14 שְׁב֥וּת שְׁבוּת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 7 conj _ Gloss=the.captivity|Ref=EZK_16:53!11|MId=o260160530111|Strong=7622 15 שֹׁמְר֖וֹן שֹׁמְרוֹן PROPN _ _ 14 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Samaria|Ref=EZK_16:53!12|MId=o260160530121|Strong=8111 16-18 וּבְנוֹתֶ֑יהָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 17 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_16:53!13|MId=o260160530131|Strong=2050b 17 בְנוֹתֶ֑י בַּת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 15 conj _ Gloss=daughters|Ref=EZK_16:53!13|MId=o260160530132|Strong=1323 18 הָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 17 nmod:poss _ Gloss=her|Ref=EZK_16:53!13|MId=o260160530133|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 19-20 וּשְׁב֥וּת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 20 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_16:53!15|MId=o260160530151|Strong=2050b 20 שְׁב֥וּת שְׁבוּת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 4 conj _ Gloss=the.captivity|Ref=EZK_16:53!15|MId=o260160530152|Strong=7622 21-22 שְׁבִיתַ֖יִךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 שְׁבִיתַ֖י שְׁבִית NOUN _ Number=Plur 20 compound:smixut _ Gloss=your.captivities|Ref=EZK_16:53!16|MId=o260160530161|Strong=7622a 22 ִךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 21 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=EZK_16:53!16|MId=o260160530162|Strong=3509c|Type=pronominal 23-25 בְּתוֹכָֽהְנָה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 24 case _ Gloss=among|Ref=EZK_16:53!17|MId=o260160530171|Strong=0871a 24 תוֹכ תָּוֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 20 nmod _ Gloss=|Ref=EZK_16:53!17|MId=o260160530172|Strong=8432 25 ָֽהְנָה הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 24 nmod:poss _ Gloss=them|Ref=EZK_16:53!17|MId=o260160530173|Strong=2004|Type=pronominal 26 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 25 punct _ Ref=EZK_16:53!17 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: promise - 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | שַׁבְתִּי *I will turn back* | weqatal · qal | | שְׁבִית *captivity* + שְׁבוּת *the captivity* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
