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 — sword, convulsion, slain, nations — and what happens in the verse to Egypt, Ethiopia, abundance, foundation, 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. וּבָאָ֥ה חֶ֙רֶב֙ בְּמִצְרַ֔יִם וְהָיְתָ֤ה חַלְחָלָה֙ בְּכ֔וּשׁ בִּנְפֹ֥ל חָלָ֖ל בְּמִצְרָ֑יִם וְלָקְח֣וּ הֲמוֹנָ֔הּ וְנֶהֶרְס֖וּ יְסוֹדֹתֶֽיהָ׃ [And a sword shall come upon Egypt, and convulsion shall be in Ethiopia, when the slain shall fall in Egypt; and they shall take away her abundance, and her foundation shall be broken down.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/EZK.774/) ## 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:743 # text = וּבָאָ֥ה חֶ֙רֶב֙ בְּמִצְרַ֔יִם וְהָיְתָ֤ה חַלְחָלָה֙ בְּכ֔וּשׁ בִּנְפֹ֥ל חָלָ֖ל בְּמִצְרָ֑יִם וְלָקְח֣וּ הֲמוֹנָ֔הּ וְנֶהֶרְס֖וּ יְסוֹדֹתֶֽיהָ׃ # verse = EZK.30.4 1-2 וּבָאָ֥ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_30:4!1|MId=o260300040011|Strong=2050b 2 בָאָ֥ה בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=it.will.come|Ref=EZK_30:4!1|MId=o260300040012|Strong=0935|Frame=A0:260300040021;|Type=weqatal 3 חֶ֙רֶב֙ חֶרֶב NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 2 nsubj _ Gloss=a.sword|Ref=EZK_30:4!2|MId=o260300040021|Strong=2719 4-5 בְּמִצְרַ֔יִם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=EZK_30:4!3|MId=o260300040031|Strong=0871a 5 מִצְרַ֔יִם מִצְרַיִם PROPN _ _ 2 obl _ Gloss=Egypt|Ref=EZK_30:4!3|MId=o260300040032|Strong=4714 6-7 וְהָיְתָ֤ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 10 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_30:4!4|MId=o260300040041|Strong=2050b 7 הָיְתָ֤ה הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 10 cop _ Gloss=it.will.be|Ref=EZK_30:4!4|MId=o260300040042|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:260300040051;|Type=weqatal 8 חַלְחָלָה֙ חַלְחָלָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 10 nsubj _ Gloss=anguish|Ref=EZK_30:4!5|MId=o260300040051|Strong=2479 9-10 בְּכ֔וּשׁ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=EZK_30:4!6|MId=o260300040061|Strong=0871a 10 כ֔וּשׁ כּוּשׁ PROPN _ _ 2 conj _ Gloss=Cush|Ref=EZK_30:4!6|MId=o260300040062|Strong=3568a 11-12 בִּנְפֹ֥ל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 בִּ בְּ ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=when|Ref=EZK_30:4!7|MId=o260300040071|Strong=0871a 12 נְפֹ֥ל נָפַל VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 10 advcl _ Gloss=fall|Ref=EZK_30:4!7|MId=o260300040072|Strong=5307|Frame=A0:260300040081;|Type=infinitive_construct 13 חָלָ֖ל חָלָל ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 12 nsubj _ Gloss=[the].slain|Ref=EZK_30:4!8|MId=o260300040081|Strong=2491|Type=adjective 14-15 בְּמִצְרָ֑יִם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=EZK_30:4!9|MId=o260300040091|Strong=0871a 15 מִצְרָ֑יִם מִצְרַיִם PROPN _ _ 12 obl _ Gloss=Egypt|Ref=EZK_30:4!9|MId=o260300040092|Strong=4714 16-17 וְלָקְח֣וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 17 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_30:4!10|MId=o260300040101|Strong=2050b 17 לָקְח֣וּ לָקַח VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=people.will.take.away|Ref=EZK_30:4!10|MId=o260300040102|Strong=3947|Frame=A0:;A1:260300040111;|Type=weqatal 18-19 הֲמוֹנָ֔הּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 הֲמוֹנ הָמוֹן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 17 obj _ Gloss=wealth|Ref=EZK_30:4!11|MId=o260300040111|Strong=1995 19 ָ֔הּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 18 nmod:poss _ Gloss=its|Ref=EZK_30:4!11|MId=o260300040112|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 20-21 וְנֶהֶרְס֖וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 21 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_30:4!12|MId=o260300040121|Strong=2050b 21 נֶהֶרְס֖וּ הָרַס VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=they.will.be.torn.down|Ref=EZK_30:4!12|MId=o260300040122|Strong=2040|Frame=A1:260300040131;|Type=weqatal 22-23 יְסוֹדֹתֶֽיהָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 יְסוֹדֹתֶֽי יְסֹדֹות NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 21 nsubj _ Gloss=foundations|Ref=EZK_30:4!13|MId=o260300040131|Strong=3247 23 הָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 22 nmod:poss _ Gloss=its|Ref=EZK_30:4!13|MId=o260300040132|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 24 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 23 punct _ Ref=EZK_30:4!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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | בָאָה *it will come* | weqatal · qal | חֶרֶב *a sword* | | | | | הָיְתָה *it will be* | weqatal · qal | חַלְחָלָה *anguish* | | | | | נְפֹל *fall* | infinitive construct · qal | חָלָל *\[the\] slain* | | | | | לָקְחוּ *people will take away* | weqatal · qal | | הֲמוֹנ *wealth* | | | | נֶהֶרְסוּ *they will be torn down* | weqatal · niphal | | יְסוֹדֹתֶֽי *foundations* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
