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 — GOD — and what happens in the verse to daughters, field, forts, mound, thee, bucklers, 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. בְּנוֹתַ֥יִךְ בַּשָּׂדֶ֖ה בַּחֶ֣רֶב יַהֲרֹ֑ג וְנָתַ֨ן עָלַ֜יִךְ דָּיֵ֗ק וְשָׁפַ֤ךְ עָלַ֙יִךְ֙ סֹֽלְלָ֔ה וְהֵקִ֥ים עָלַ֖יִךְ צִנָּֽה׃ [He shall slay with the sword thy daughters in the field; and he shall make forts against thee, and cast up a mound against thee, and set up bucklers against thee.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/EZK.673/) ## 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:643 # text = בְּנוֹתַ֥יִךְ בַּשָּׂדֶ֖ה בַּחֶ֣רֶב יַהֲרֹ֑ג וְנָתַ֨ן עָלַ֜יִךְ דָּיֵ֗ק וְשָׁפַ֤ךְ עָלַ֙יִךְ֙ סֹֽלְלָ֔ה וְהֵקִ֥ים עָלַ֖יִךְ צִנָּֽה׃ # verse = EZK.26.8 1-2 בְּנוֹתַ֥יִךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 בְּנוֹתַ֥י בַּת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 9 obj _ Gloss=daughters|Ref=EZK_26:8!1|MId=o260260080011|Strong=1323 2 ִךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 1 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=EZK_26:8!1|MId=o260260080012|Strong=3509c|Type=pronominal 3-5 בַּשָּׂדֶ֖ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=EZK_26:8!2|MId=o260260080021|Strong=0871a 4 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 5 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EZK_26:8!2|MId=o260260080021ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 5 שָּׂדֶ֖ה שָׂדֶה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 1 nmod _ Gloss=land|Ref=EZK_26:8!2|MId=o260260080022|Strong=7704 6-8 בַּחֶ֣רֶב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=EZK_26:8!3|MId=o260260080031|Strong=0871a 7 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 8 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EZK_26:8!3|MId=o260260080031ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 8 חֶ֣רֶב חֶרֶב NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 9 obl _ Gloss=sword|Ref=EZK_26:8!3|MId=o260260080032|Strong=2719 9 יַהֲרֹ֑ג הָרַג VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.will.kill|Ref=EZK_26:8!4|MId=o260260080041|Strong=2026|Frame=A0:260260070101;A1:260260080011;|Type=yiqtol 10-11 וְנָתַ֨ן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 11 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_26:8!5|MId=o260260080051|Strong=2050b 11 נָתַ֨ן נָתַן VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 9 conj _ Gloss=he.will.make|Ref=EZK_26:8!5|MId=o260260080052|Strong=5414|Frame=A0:260260070101;A1:260260080071;|Type=weqatal 12-13 עָלַ֜יִךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 עָלַ֜י עַל ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=EZK_26:8!6|MId=o260260080061|Strong=5921 13 ִךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 11 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=EZK_26:8!6|MId=o260260080062|Strong=3509c|Type=pronominal 14 דָּיֵ֗ק דָּיֵק NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 11 obj _ Gloss=a.siege-work|Ref=EZK_26:8!7|MId=o260260080071|Strong=1785 15-16 וְשָׁפַ֤ךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 16 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_26:8!8|MId=o260260080081|Strong=2050b 16 שָׁפַ֤ךְ שָׁפַךְ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 9 conj _ Gloss=he.will.pour.out|Ref=EZK_26:8!8|MId=o260260080082|Strong=8210|Frame=A0:260260070101;A1:260260080101;|Type=weqatal 17-18 עָלַ֙יִךְ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 עָלַ֙י עַל ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=EZK_26:8!9|MId=o260260080091|Strong=5921 18 ִךְ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 16 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=EZK_26:8!9|MId=o260260080092|Strong=3509c|Type=pronominal 19 סֹֽלְלָ֔ה סֹלְלָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 16 obj _ Gloss=a.mound|Ref=EZK_26:8!10|MId=o260260080101|Strong=5550 20-21 וְהֵקִ֥ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 21 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_26:8!11|MId=o260260080111|Strong=2050b 21 הֵקִ֥ים קוּם VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 9 conj _ Gloss=he.will.raise.up|Ref=EZK_26:8!11|MId=o260260080112|Strong=6965|Frame=AA:260260070101;A0:260260080131;|Type=weqatal 22-23 עָלַ֖יִךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 עָלַ֖י עַל ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=EZK_26:8!12|MId=o260260080121|Strong=5921 23 ִךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 21 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=EZK_26:8!12|MId=o260260080122|Strong=3509c|Type=pronominal 24 צִנָּֽה צִנָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 21 obj _ Gloss=a.body.shield|Ref=EZK_26:8!13|MId=o260260080131|Strong=6793a|SpaceAfter=No 25 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 24 punct _ Ref=EZK_26:8!13 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יַהֲרֹג *he will kill* | yiqtol · qal | | בְּנוֹתַי *daughters* | | | | נָתַן *he will make* | weqatal · qal | | דָּיֵק *a siege-work* | | | | שָׁפַךְ *he will pour out* | weqatal · qal | | סֹֽלְלָה *a mound* | | | | הֵקִים *he will raise up* | weqatal · hiphil | צִנָּֽה *a body shield* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
