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 — house, speech — and what happens in the verse, 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. וּבֵ֣ית יִשְׂרָאֵ֗ל לֹ֤א יֹאבוּ֙ לִשְׁמֹ֣עַ אֵלֶ֔יךָ כִּֽי־אֵינָ֥ם אֹבִ֖ים לִשְׁמֹ֣עַ אֵלָ֑י כִּ֚י כָּל־בֵּ֣ית יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל חִזְקֵי־מֵ֥צַח וּקְשֵׁי־לֵ֖ב הֵֽמָּה׃ [But the house of Israel will not consent to hearken unto thee; for they consent not to hearken unto Me; for all the house of Israel are of a hard forehead and of a stiff heart.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/EZK.48/) ## 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:44 # text = וּבֵ֣ית יִשְׂרָאֵ֗ל לֹ֤א יֹאבוּ֙ לִשְׁמֹ֣עַ אֵלֶ֔יךָ כִּֽי־אֵינָ֥ם אֹבִ֖ים לִשְׁמֹ֣עַ אֵלָ֑י כִּ֚י כָּל־בֵּ֣ית יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל חִזְקֵי־מֵ֥צַח וּקְשֵׁי־לֵ֖ב הֵֽמָּה׃ # verse = EZK.3.7 1-2 וּבֵ֣ית _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 5 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_3:7!1|MId=o260030070011|Strong=2050b 2 בֵ֣ית בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 5 nsubj _ Gloss=the.house|Ref=EZK_3:7!1|MId=o260030070012|Strong=1004 3 יִשְׂרָאֵ֗ל יִשְׂרָאֵל PROPN _ _ 2 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Israel|Ref=EZK_3:7!2|MId=o260030070021|Strong=3478 4 לֹ֤א לֹא ADV _ _ 5 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=EZK_3:7!3|MId=o260030070031|Strong=3808|Type=negative 5 יֹאבוּ֙ אָבָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.will.be.willing|Ref=EZK_3:7!4|MId=o260030070041|Strong=0014|Frame=A0:260030070012;|Type=yiqtol 6-7 לִשְׁמֹ֣עַ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EZK_3:7!5|MId=o260030070051|Strong=3807a 7 שְׁמֹ֣עַ שָׁמַע VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 5 xcomp _ Gloss=listen|Ref=EZK_3:7!5|MId=o260030070052|Strong=8085|Frame=A0:260030070012;|Type=infinitive_construct 8-9 אֵלֶ֔יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 אֵלֶ֔י אֶל ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EZK_3:7!6|MId=o260030070061|Strong=0413 9 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 7 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=EZK_3:7!6|MId=o260030070062|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 10 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 13 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=EZK_3:7!7|MId=o260030070071|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 11-12 אֵינָ֥ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 אֵינ אַיִן ADV _ _ 13 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=EZK_3:7!8|MId=o260030070081|Strong=0369|Type=negative 12 ָ֥ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 13 nsubj _ Gloss=they|Ref=EZK_3:7!8|MId=o260030070082|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 13 אֹבִ֖ים אָבָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur 5 advcl _ Gloss=[are].willing|Ref=EZK_3:7!9|MId=o260030070091|Strong=0014|Frame=A0:260030070082;|Type=participle_active 14-15 לִשְׁמֹ֣עַ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EZK_3:7!10|MId=o260030070101|Strong=3807a 15 שְׁמֹ֣עַ שָׁמַע VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 13 xcomp _ Gloss=listen|Ref=EZK_3:7!10|MId=o260030070102|Strong=8085|Frame=A0:260030070012;|Type=infinitive_construct 16-17 אֵלָ֑י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 אֵל אֶל ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EZK_3:7!11|MId=o260030070111|Strong=0413 17 ָ֑י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 15 obl _ Gloss=me|Ref=EZK_3:7!11|MId=o260030070112|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 18 כִּ֚י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 22 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=EZK_3:7!12|MId=o260030070121|Strong=3588 19 כָּל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 22 dislocated _ Gloss=all|Ref=EZK_3:7!13|MId=o260030070131|Strong=3605|SpaceAfter=No 20 בֵּ֣ית בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 19 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.house|Ref=EZK_3:7!14|MId=o260030070141|Strong=1004 21 יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל יִשְׂרָאֵל PROPN _ _ 20 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Israel|Ref=EZK_3:7!15|MId=o260030070151|Strong=3478 22 חִזְקֵי־ חָזָק ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 5 advcl _ Gloss=[are].hard|Ref=EZK_3:7!16|MId=o260030070161|Strong=2389|Type=adjective|SpaceAfter=No 23 מֵ֥צַח מֵצַח NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 22 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.forehead|Ref=EZK_3:7!17|MId=o260030070171|Strong=4696 24-25 וּקְשֵׁי־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 25 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_3:7!18|MId=o260030070181|Strong=2050b 25 קְשֵׁי־ קָשֶׁה ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 22 conj _ Gloss=stern|Ref=EZK_3:7!18|MId=o260030070182|Strong=7186|Type=adjective 26 לֵ֖ב לֵב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 25 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.heart|Ref=EZK_3:7!19|MId=o260030070191|Strong=3820 27 הֵֽמָּה הֵמָּה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 22 nsubj _ Gloss=they|Ref=EZK_3:7!20|MId=o260030070201|Strong=1992|Type=personal|SpaceAfter=No 28 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 27 punct _ Ref=EZK_3:7!20 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - 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** יֹאבוּ *they will be willing* | yiqtol · qal | בֵית *the house* | | | | | שְׁמֹעַ *listen* | infinitive construct · qal | בֵית *the house* | | | | | **not** אֹבִים *\[are\] willing* | participle active · qal | ָם *they* | | | | | שְׁמֹעַ *listen* | infinitive construct · qal | בֵית *the house* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
