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 — man — and what happens in the verse to breadth, 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. וְהִנֵּ֥ה חוֹמָ֛ה מִח֥וּץ לַבַּ֖יִת סָבִ֣יב ׀ סָבִ֑יב וּבְיַ֨ד הָאִ֜ישׁ קְנֵ֣ה הַמִּדָּ֗ה שֵׁשׁ־אַמּ֤וֹת בָּֽאַמָּה֙ וָטֹ֔פַח וַיָּ֜מָד אֶת־רֹ֤חַב הַבִּנְיָן֙ קָנֶ֣ה אֶחָ֔ד וְקוֹמָ֖ה קָנֶ֥ה אֶחָֽד׃ [And behold a wall on the outside of the house round about, and in the man's hand a measuring reed of six cubits long, of a cubit and a hand-breadth each; so he measured the breadth of the building, one reed, and the height, one reed.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/EZK.1053/) ## 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:1017 # text = וְהִנֵּ֥ה חוֹמָ֛ה מִח֥וּץ לַבַּ֖יִת סָבִ֣יב ׀ סָבִ֑יב וּבְיַ֨ד הָאִ֜ישׁ קְנֵ֣ה הַמִּדָּ֗ה שֵׁשׁ־אַמּ֤וֹת בָּֽאַמָּה֙ וָטֹ֔פַח וַיָּ֜מָד אֶת־רֹ֤חַב הַבִּנְיָן֙ קָנֶ֣ה אֶחָ֔ד וְקוֹמָ֖ה קָנֶ֥ה אֶחָֽד׃ # verse = EZK.40.5 1-2 וְהִנֵּ֥ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 5 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_40:5!1|MId=o260400050011|Strong=2050b 2 הִנֵּ֥ה הִנֵּה INTJ _ _ 5 discourse _ Gloss=there!|Ref=EZK_40:5!1|MId=o260400050012|Strong=2009|Type=demonstrative 3 חוֹמָ֛ה חוֹמָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 5 nsubj _ Gloss=a.wall|Ref=EZK_40:5!2|MId=o260400050021|Strong=2346 4-5 מִח֥וּץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=[was].from.[the]|Ref=EZK_40:5!3|MId=o260400050031|Strong=4480 5 ח֥וּץ חוּץ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 0 root _ Gloss=outside|Ref=EZK_40:5!3|MId=o260400050032|Strong=2351 6-8 לַבַּ֖יִת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 לַ לְ ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=of|Ref=EZK_40:5!4|MId=o260400050041|Strong=3807a 7 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 8 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EZK_40:5!4|MId=o260400050041ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 8 בַּ֖יִת בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 5 nmod _ Gloss=house|Ref=EZK_40:5!4|MId=o260400050042|Strong=1004 9 סָבִ֣יב סָבִיב ADV _ Number=Sing 5 advmod _ Gloss=all.around|Ref=EZK_40:5!5|MId=o260400050051|Strong=5439 10 ׀ ׀ PUNCT _ _ 9 punct _ Ref=EZK_40:5!5 11 סָבִ֑יב סָבִיב ADV _ Number=Sing 9 advmod _ Gloss=all.around|Ref=EZK_40:5!6|MId=o260400050061|Strong=5439 12-14 וּבְיַ֨ד _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 21 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_40:5!7|MId=o260400050071|Strong=2050b 13 בְ בְּ ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=EZK_40:5!7|MId=o260400050072|Strong=0871a 14 יַ֨ד יָד NOUN _ Number=Sing 21 obl _ Gloss=the.hand|Ref=EZK_40:5!7|MId=o260400050073|Strong=3027 15-16 הָאִ֜ישׁ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 16 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=EZK_40:5!8|MId=o260400050081|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 16 אִ֜ישׁ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 14 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.man|Ref=EZK_40:5!8|MId=o260400050082|Strong=0376 17 קְנֵ֣ה קָנֶה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 21 nsubj _ Gloss=the.reed|Ref=EZK_40:5!9|MId=o260400050091|Strong=7070 18-19 הַמִּדָּ֗ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 19 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=EZK_40:5!10|MId=o260400050101|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 19 מִּדָּ֗ה מִדָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 17 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.measurement|Ref=EZK_40:5!10|MId=o260400050102|Strong=4060 20 שֵׁשׁ־ שֵׁשׁ NUM _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 21 nummod _ Gloss=[was].six|Ref=EZK_40:5!11|MId=o260400050111|Strong=8337|Type=cardinal_number|SpaceAfter=No 21 אַמּ֤וֹת אַמָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 5 conj _ Gloss=cubits|Ref=EZK_40:5!12|MId=o260400050121|Strong=0520 22-24 בָּֽאַמָּה֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 בָּֽ בְּ ADP _ _ 24 case _ Gloss=by|Ref=EZK_40:5!13|MId=o260400050131|Strong=0871a 23 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 24 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EZK_40:5!13|MId=o260400050131ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 24 אַמָּה֙ אַמָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 21 obl _ Gloss=cubit|Ref=EZK_40:5!13|MId=o260400050132|Strong=0520 25-26 וָטֹ֔פַח _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 וָ וְ CCONJ _ _ 26 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_40:5!14|MId=o260400050141|Strong=2050b 26 טֹ֔פַח טֹפַח NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 24 conj _ Gloss=a.hand.breadth|Ref=EZK_40:5!14|MId=o260400050142|Strong=2948 27-28 וַיָּ֜מָד _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 28 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_40:5!15|MId=o260400050151|Strong=2050b 28 יָּ֜מָד מָדַד VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 5 conj _ Gloss=he.measured|Ref=EZK_40:5!15|MId=o260400050152|Strong=4058|Frame=A0:260400050082;A1:260400050171;|Type=wayyiqtol 29 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 30 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=EZK_40:5!16|MId=o260400050161|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 30 רֹ֤חַב רֹחַב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 28 obj _ Gloss=the.breadth|Ref=EZK_40:5!17|MId=o260400050171|Strong=7341 31-32 הַבִּנְיָן֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 31 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 32 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=EZK_40:5!18|MId=o260400050181|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 32 בִּנְיָן֙ בִּנְיָן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 30 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.structure|Ref=EZK_40:5!18|MId=o260400050182|Strong=1146 33 קָנֶ֣ה קָנֶה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 28 xcomp _ Gloss=a.reed|Ref=EZK_40:5!19|MId=o260400050191|Strong=7070 34 אֶחָ֔ד אֶחָד NUM _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 33 nummod _ Gloss=one|Ref=EZK_40:5!20|MId=o260400050201|Strong=0259|Type=cardinal_number 35-36 וְקוֹמָ֖ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 35 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 36 cc _ Gloss=and.[the]|Ref=EZK_40:5!21|MId=o260400050211|Strong=2050b 36 קוֹמָ֖ה קוֹמָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 28 conj _ Gloss=height|Ref=EZK_40:5!21|MId=o260400050212|Strong=6967 37 קָנֶ֥ה קָנֶה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 36 xcomp _ Gloss=a.reed|Ref=EZK_40:5!22|MId=o260400050221|Strong=7070 38 אֶחָֽד אֶחָד NUM _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 37 nummod _ Gloss=one|Ref=EZK_40:5!23|MId=o260400050231|Strong=0259|Type=cardinal_number|SpaceAfter=No 39 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 38 punct _ Ref=EZK_40:5!23 ``` ##
