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, thou, wicked man — and what happens in the verse to wicked, way, blood, hand, 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. בְּאָמְרִ֣י לָרָשָׁ֗ע רָשָׁע֙ מ֣וֹת תָּמ֔וּת וְלֹ֣א דִבַּ֔רְתָּ לְהַזְהִ֥יר רָשָׁ֖ע מִדַּרְכּ֑וֹ ה֤וּא רָשָׁע֙ בַּעֲוֺנ֣וֹ יָמ֔וּת וְדָמ֖וֹ מִיָּדְךָ֥ אֲבַקֵּֽשׁ׃ [When I say unto the wicked: O wicked man, thou shalt surely die, and thou dost not speak to warn the wicked from his way; that wicked man shall die in his iniquity, but his blood will I require at thy hand.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/EZK.856/) ## 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:823 # text = בְּאָמְרִ֣י לָרָשָׁ֗ע רָשָׁע֙ מ֣וֹת תָּמ֔וּת וְלֹ֣א דִבַּ֔רְתָּ לְהַזְהִ֥יר רָשָׁ֖ע מִדַּרְכּ֑וֹ ה֤וּא רָשָׁע֙ בַּעֲוֺנ֣וֹ יָמ֔וּת וְדָמ֖וֹ מִיָּדְךָ֥ אֲבַקֵּֽשׁ׃ # verse = EZK.33.8 1-3 בְּאָמְרִ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 2 case _ Gloss=when|Ref=EZK_33:8!1|MId=o260330080011|Strong=0871a 2 אָמְר אָמַר VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 24 parataxis _ Gloss=say|Ref=EZK_33:8!1|MId=o260330080012|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:260330080013;A1:260330080051;|Type=infinitive_construct 3 ִ֣י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 2 nsubj _ Gloss=I|Ref=EZK_33:8!1|MId=o260330080013|Strong=5204a|Type=pronominal 4-6 לָרָשָׁ֗ע _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 לָ לְ ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EZK_33:8!2|MId=o260330080021|Strong=3807a 5 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 6 det _ Gloss=the.wicked|Ref=EZK_33:8!2|MId=o260330080021ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 6 רָשָׁ֗ע רָשָׁע ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=[person]|Ref=EZK_33:8!2|MId=o260330080022|Strong=7563|Type=adjective 7 רָשָׁע֙ רָשָׁע ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 dislocated _ Gloss=O.wicked.[person]|Ref=EZK_33:8!3|MId=o260330080031|Strong=7563|Type=adjective 8 מ֣וֹת מוּת VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 9 obl:npmod _ Gloss=surely.(die)|Ref=EZK_33:8!4|MId=o260330080041|Strong=4191|Type=infinitive_absolute 9 תָּמ֔וּת מוּת VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 2 ccomp _ Gloss=you.will.die|Ref=EZK_33:8!5|MId=o260330080051|Strong=4191|Frame=A0:260330080031;|Type=yiqtol 10-11 וְלֹ֣א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 12 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_33:8!6|MId=o260330080061|Strong=2050b 11 לֹ֣א לֹא ADV _ _ 12 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=EZK_33:8!6|MId=o260330080062|Strong=3808|Type=negative 12 דִבַּ֔רְתָּ דָבַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=2 2 conj _ Gloss=you.have.spoken|Ref=EZK_33:8!7|MId=o260330080071|Strong=1696|Frame=A0:260330070021;|Type=qatal 13-14 לְהַזְהִ֥יר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EZK_33:8!8|MId=o260330080081|Strong=3807a 14 הַזְהִ֥יר זָהַר VERB _ HebBinyan=HIPHIL 12 advcl _ Gloss=warn|Ref=EZK_33:8!8|MId=o260330080082|Strong=2094a|Frame=AA:260330070021;A0:260330080091;|Type=infinitive_construct 15 רָשָׁ֖ע רָשָׁע ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 14 obj _ Gloss=[the].wicked.[person]|Ref=EZK_33:8!9|MId=o260330080091|Strong=7563|Type=adjective 16-18 מִדַּרְכּ֑וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=EZK_33:8!10|MId=o260330080101|Strong=4480 17 דַּרְכּ דֶּרֶךְ NOUN _ Number=Sing 14 obl _ Gloss=way|Ref=EZK_33:8!10|MId=o260330080102|Strong=1870 18 ֑וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 17 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=EZK_33:8!10|MId=o260330080103|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 19 ה֤וּא הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 24 nsubj _ Gloss=that|Ref=EZK_33:8!11|MId=o260330080111|Strong=1931|Type=personal 20 רָשָׁע֙ רָשָׁע ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 19 amod _ Gloss=wicked.[person]|Ref=EZK_33:8!12|MId=o260330080121|Strong=7563|Type=adjective 21-23 בַּעֲוֺנ֣וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=EZK_33:8!13|MId=o260330080131|Strong=0871a 22 עֲוֺנ עָוֺן NOUN _ Number=Sing 24 obl _ Gloss=iniquity|Ref=EZK_33:8!13|MId=o260330080132|Strong=5771 23 ֣וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 22 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=EZK_33:8!13|MId=o260330080133|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 24 יָמ֔וּת מוּת VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.will.die|Ref=EZK_33:8!14|MId=o260330080141|Strong=4191|Frame=A0:260330080111;|Type=yiqtol 25-27 וְדָמ֖וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 31 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_33:8!15|MId=o260330080151|Strong=2050b 26 דָמ דָּם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 31 obj _ Gloss=blood|Ref=EZK_33:8!15|MId=o260330080152|Strong=1818 27 ֖וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 26 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=EZK_33:8!15|MId=o260330080153|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 28-30 מִיָּדְךָ֥ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 28 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 29 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=EZK_33:8!16|MId=o260330080161|Strong=4480 29 יָּד יָד NOUN _ Number=Sing 31 obl _ Gloss=hand|Ref=EZK_33:8!16|MId=o260330080162|Strong=3027 30 ְךָ֥ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 29 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=EZK_33:8!16|MId=o260330080163|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 31 אֲבַקֵּֽשׁ בָּקַשׁ VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=1 24 conj _ Gloss=I.will.require|Ref=EZK_33:8!17|MId=o260330080171|Strong=1245|Frame=A0:260330010031;A1:260330080152;|Type=yiqtol|SpaceAfter=No 32 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 31 punct _ Ref=EZK_33:8!17 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
