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 — Lord GOD, I — 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. לָכֵ֗ן כֹּ֥ה אָמַ֛ר אֲדֹנָ֥י יְהוִ֖ה אֲלֵיהֶ֑ם הִנְנִי־אָ֕נִי וְשָֽׁפַטְתִּי֙ בֵּֽין־שֶׂ֣ה בִרְיָ֔ה וּבֵ֥ין שֶׂ֖ה רָזָֽה׃ [Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD unto them: Behold, I, even I, will judge between the fat cattle and the lean cattle.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/EZK.903/) ## 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:868 # text = לָכֵ֗ן כֹּ֥ה אָמַ֛ר אֲדֹנָ֥י יְהוִ֖ה אֲלֵיהֶ֑ם הִנְנִי־אָ֕נִי וְשָֽׁפַטְתִּי֙ בֵּֽין־שֶׂ֣ה בִרְיָ֔ה וּבֵ֥ין שֶׂ֖ה רָזָֽה׃ # verse = EZK.34.20 1-2 לָכֵ֗ן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 לָ לָכֵן ADP _ _ 2 case _ Gloss=therefore|Ref=EZK_34:20!1|MId=o260340200011|Strong=3807a 2 כֵ֗ן כֵּן ADV _ _ 0 root _ Gloss=|Ref=EZK_34:20!1|MId=o260340200012|Strong=3651 3 כֹּ֥ה כֹּה ADV _ _ 4 advmod _ Gloss=thus|Ref=EZK_34:20!2|MId=o260340200021|Strong=3541 4 אָמַ֛ר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 parataxis _ Gloss=he.says|Ref=EZK_34:20!3|MId=o260340200031|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:260340200041;|Type=qatal 5-6 אֲדֹנָ֥י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 אֲדֹנ אֲדֹנָי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 4 nsubj _ Gloss=Lord|Ref=EZK_34:20!4|MId=o260340200041|Strong=0136 6 ָ֥י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 5 nmod:poss _ Gloss=[the]|Ref=EZK_34:20!4|MId=o260340200042|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 7 יְהוִ֖ה יְהֹוִה PROPN _ _ 5 appos _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=EZK_34:20!5|MId=o260340200051|Strong=3069 8-9 אֲלֵיהֶ֑ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 אֲלֵי אֶל ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EZK_34:20!6|MId=o260340200061|Strong=0413 9 הֶ֑ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 4 obl _ Gloss=them|Ref=EZK_34:20!6|MId=o260340200062|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 10-11 הִנְנִי־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 הִנ הִנֵּה INTJ _ _ 14 parataxis _ Gloss=here|Ref=EZK_34:20!7|MId=o260340200071|Strong=2009|Type=demonstrative 11 ְנִי־ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 10 nsubj _ Gloss=I.[am]|Ref=EZK_34:20!7|MId=o260340200072|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 12 אָ֕נִי אֲנִי PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 14 dislocated _ Gloss=I|Ref=EZK_34:20!8|MId=o260340200081|Strong=0589|Type=personal 13-14 וְשָֽׁפַטְתִּי֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 14 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_34:20!9|MId=o260340200091|Strong=2050b 14 שָֽׁפַטְתִּי֙ שָׁפַט VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 4 ccomp _ Gloss=I.will.judge|Ref=EZK_34:20!9|MId=o260340200092|Strong=8199|Frame=A0:260340200041;|Type=weqatal 15 בֵּֽין־ בֵּין ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=between|Ref=EZK_34:20!10|MId=o260340200101|Strong=0996|SpaceAfter=No 16 שֶׂ֣ה שֶׂה NOUN _ Number=Sing 14 obl _ Gloss=a.sheep|Ref=EZK_34:20!11|MId=o260340200111|Strong=7716 17 בִרְיָ֔ה בָּרִיא ADJ _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 16 amod _ Gloss=fat|Ref=EZK_34:20!12|MId=o260340200121|Strong=1277|Type=adjective 18-19 וּבֵ֥ין _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 20 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_34:20!13|MId=o260340200131|Strong=2050b 19 בֵ֥ין בֵּין ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=between|Ref=EZK_34:20!13|MId=o260340200132|Strong=0996 20 שֶׂ֖ה שֶׂה NOUN _ Number=Sing 16 conj _ Gloss=a.sheep|Ref=EZK_34:20!14|MId=o260340200141|Strong=7716 21 רָזָֽה רָזֶה ADJ _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 20 amod _ Gloss=lean|Ref=EZK_34:20!15|MId=o260340200151|Strong=7330|Type=adjective|SpaceAfter=No 22 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 21 punct _ Ref=EZK_34:20!15 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: promise - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: no - the frame alone: decl · assert · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | אָמַר *he says* | qatal · qal | אֲדֹנ *Lord* | | | | | שָֽׁפַטְתִּי *I will judge* | weqatal · qal | אֲדֹנ *Lord* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
