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, death, Lord GOD, man — and what happens in the verse to pleasure, death, yourselves, 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. כִּ֣י לֹ֤א אֶחְפֹּץ֙ בְּמ֣וֹת הַמֵּ֔ת נְאֻ֖ם אֲדֹנָ֣י יְהוִ֑ה וְהָשִׁ֖יבוּ וִֽחְיֽוּ׃פ [For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord GOD; wherefore turn yourselves, and live.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/EZK.439/) ## 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:416 # text = כִּ֣י לֹ֤א אֶחְפֹּץ֙ בְּמ֣וֹת הַמֵּ֔ת נְאֻ֖ם אֲדֹנָ֣י יְהוִ֑ה וְהָשִׁ֖יבוּ וִֽחְיֽוּ׃פ # verse = EZK.18.32 1 כִּ֣י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 3 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=EZK_18:32!1|MId=o260180320011|Strong=3588 2 לֹ֤א לֹא ADV _ _ 3 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=EZK_18:32!2|MId=o260180320021|Strong=3808|Type=negative 3 אֶחְפֹּץ֙ חָפֵץ VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 0 root _ Gloss=I.take.pleasure|Ref=EZK_18:32!3|MId=o260180320031|Strong=2654|Frame=A0:260180300091;|Type=yiqtol 4-5 בְּמ֣וֹת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=EZK_18:32!4|MId=o260180320041|Strong=0871a 5 מ֣וֹת מָוֶת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 obl _ Gloss=the.death|Ref=EZK_18:32!4|MId=o260180320042|Strong=4194 6-7 הַמֵּ֔ת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 7 det _ Gloss=of.(the)|Ref=EZK_18:32!5|MId=o260180320051|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 7 מֵּ֔ת מוּת VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 5 compound:smixut _ Gloss=[one.who].dies|Ref=EZK_18:32!5|MId=o260180320052|Strong=4191|Type=participle_active 8 נְאֻ֖ם נְאֻם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 parataxis _ Gloss=the.utterance|Ref=EZK_18:32!6|MId=o260180320061|Strong=5002 9-10 אֲדֹנָ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 אֲדֹנ אֲדֹנָי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 8 compound:smixut _ Gloss=Lord|Ref=EZK_18:32!7|MId=o260180320071|Strong=0136 10 ָ֣י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 9 nmod:poss _ Gloss=of.[the]|Ref=EZK_18:32!7|MId=o260180320072|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 11 יְהוִ֑ה יְהֹוִה PROPN _ _ 9 appos _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=EZK_18:32!8|MId=o260180320081|Strong=3069 12-13 וְהָשִׁ֖יבוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 13 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_18:32!9|MId=o260180320091|Strong=2050b 13 הָשִׁ֖יבוּ שׁוּב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Plur|Person=2 3 conj _ Gloss=turn.away|Ref=EZK_18:32!9|MId=o260180320092|Strong=7725|Frame=A0:260180310171;|Type=imperative 14-15 וִֽחְיֽוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 וִֽ וְ CCONJ _ _ 15 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_18:32!10|MId=o260180320101|Strong=2050b 15 חְיֽוּ חָיָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 13 conj _ Gloss=live|Ref=EZK_18:32!10|MId=o260180320102|Strong=2421|Frame=A0:260180310171;|Type=imperative 16 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 15 punct _ Ref=EZK_18:32!10|SpaceAfter=No 17 פ פ PUNCT _ _ 15 punct _ Ref=EZK_18:32!10 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: request - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: yes | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | **not** אֶחְפֹּץ *I take pleasure* | yiqtol · qal | | | | | | הָשִׁיבוּ *turn away* | imperative · hiphil | | | | | | חְיֽוּ *live* | imperative · qal | | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
