Ezekiel 31:9 in Hebrew with its dependency tree, Targum Jonathan, JPS 1917 and the pragmatics of every clause. --- [Mova](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) · [this page in HTML](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/EZK.31.9/) [home](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) / [corpora](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/) / [Tanakh](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/tanakh/) / [Nevi'im](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/) / [Ezekiel](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/EZK/) / [chapter 31](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/EZK/31/) / 31:9 # Ezekiel 31:9 יְחֶזְקֵאל **Who acts:** I, trees · **What happens:** make, be, envy · **To what, where:** field, garden This is Ezekiel 31:9 from Mova's open Bible corpus, the Tanakh in three languages (Nevi'im — the Prophets). 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, trees — and what happens in the verse to field, garden, 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. יָפֶ֣ה עֲשִׂיתִ֔יו בְּרֹ֖ב דָּֽלִיּוֹתָ֑יו וַיְקַנְאֻ֙הוּ֙ כָּל־עֲצֵי־עֵ֔דֶן אֲשֶׁ֖ר בְּגַ֥ן הָאֱלֹהִֽים׃ס [I made it fair by the multitude of its branches; so that all the trees of Eden, that were in the garden of God, envied it.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/EZK.805/) ## 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:774 # text = יָפֶ֣ה עֲשִׂיתִ֔יו בְּרֹ֖ב דָּֽלִיּוֹתָ֑יו וַיְקַנְאֻ֙הוּ֙ כָּל־עֲצֵי־עֵ֔דֶן אֲשֶׁ֖ר בְּגַ֥ן הָאֱלֹהִֽים׃ס # verse = EZK.31.9 1 יָפֶ֣ה יָפֶה ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 xcomp _ Gloss=beautiful|Ref=EZK_31:9!1|MId=o260310090011|Strong=3303|Type=adjective 2-3 עֲשִׂיתִ֔יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 2 עֲשִׂיתִ֔י עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 0 root _ Gloss=I|Ref=EZK_31:9!2|MId=o260310090021|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:260310010101;A1:260310090022;|Type=qatal 3 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 2 obj _ Gloss=made.it|Ref=EZK_31:9!2|MId=o260310090022|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 4-5 בְּרֹ֖ב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=EZK_31:9!3|MId=o260310090031|Strong=0871a 5 רֹ֖ב רֹב NOUN _ Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=the.abundance|Ref=EZK_31:9!3|MId=o260310090032|Strong=7230 6-7 דָּֽלִיּוֹתָ֑יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 דָּֽלִיּוֹתָ֑י דָּלִית NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 5 compound:smixut _ Gloss=its.branches|Ref=EZK_31:9!4|MId=o260310090041|Strong=1808 7 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 6 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=EZK_31:9!4|MId=o260310090042|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 8-10 וַיְקַנְאֻ֙הוּ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 9 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_31:9!5|MId=o260310090051|Strong=2050b 9 יְקַנְאֻ֙ קָנָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=they|Ref=EZK_31:9!5|MId=o260310090052|Strong=7065|Frame=A1:260310090053;A0:260310090071;|Type=wayyiqtol 10 הוּ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 9 obj _ Gloss=envied.it|Ref=EZK_31:9!5|MId=o260310090053|Strong=1930a|Type=pronominal 11 כָּל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 nsubj _ Gloss=all|Ref=EZK_31:9!6|MId=o260310090061|Strong=3605|SpaceAfter=No 12 עֲצֵי־ עֵץ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 11 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.trees|Ref=EZK_31:9!7|MId=o260310090071|Strong=6086|SpaceAfter=No 13 עֵ֔דֶן עֵדֶן PROPN _ _ 12 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Eden|Ref=EZK_31:9!8|MId=o260310090081|Strong=5731 14 אֲשֶׁ֖ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 16 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=EZK_31:9!9|MId=o260310090091|Strong=0834|Type=relative 15-16 בְּגַ֥ן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=[were].in|Ref=EZK_31:9!10|MId=o260310090101|Strong=0871a 16 גַ֥ן גַּן NOUN _ Number=Sing 11 acl:relcl _ Gloss=the.garden|Ref=EZK_31:9!10|MId=o260310090102|Strong=1588 17-18 הָאֱלֹהִֽים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 18 det _ Gloss=of.(the)|Ref=EZK_31:9!11|MId=o260310090111|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 18 אֱלֹהִֽים אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 16 compound:smixut _ Gloss=God|Ref=EZK_31:9!11|MId=o260310090112|Strong=0430 19 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 18 punct _ Ref=EZK_31:9!11|SpaceAfter=No 20 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 18 punct _ Ref=EZK_31:9!11 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: speech with no frame - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | עֲשִׂיתִי *I* | qatal · qal | | ו *made it* | | | | יְקַנְאֻ *they* | wayyiqtol · piel | עֲצֵי־ *the trees* | הוּ *envied it* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
