# Ezekiel 37:19 יְחֶזְקֵאל

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** you, Lord GOD, I, stick, children · **What happens:** say, take, be, put, make · **To what, where:** stick, hand, children, one stick, one · **Speech:** someone speaks in this verse

<!-- .vabout -->
This is Ezekiel 37:19 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 — you, Lord GOD, I, stick, children — and what happens in the verse to stick, hand, children, one stick, one, 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.

[say into them: Thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his companions; and I will put them unto him together with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in My hand.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/EZK.986/)

## The tree {#tree}

<!-- .note -->
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.
