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, prince, gift — and what happens in the verse to gift, inheritance, possession, 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. כֹּה־אָמַ֞ר אֲדֹנָ֣י יְהֹוִ֗ה כִּֽי־יִתֵּ֨ן הַנָּשִׂ֤יא מַתָּנָה֙ לְאִ֣ישׁ מִבָּנָ֔יו נַחֲלָת֥וֹ הִ֖יא לְבָנָ֣יו תִּֽהְיֶ֑ה אֲחֻזָּתָ֥ם הִ֖יא בְּנַחֲלָֽה׃ [Thus saith the Lord GOD: If the prince give a gift unto any of his sons, it is his inheritance, it shall belong to his sons; it is their possession by inheritance.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/EZK.1244/) ## 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:1206 # text = כֹּה־אָמַ֞ר אֲדֹנָ֣י יְהֹוִ֗ה כִּֽי־יִתֵּ֨ן הַנָּשִׂ֤יא מַתָּנָה֙ לְאִ֣ישׁ מִבָּנָ֔יו נַחֲלָת֥וֹ הִ֖יא לְבָנָ֣יו תִּֽהְיֶ֑ה אֲחֻזָּתָ֥ם הִ֖יא בְּנַחֲלָֽה׃ # verse = EZK.46.16 1 כֹּה־ כֹּה ADV _ _ 2 advmod _ Gloss=thus|Ref=EZK_46:16!1|MId=o260460160011|Strong=3541|SpaceAfter=No 2 אָמַ֞ר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.says|Ref=EZK_46:16!2|MId=o260460160021|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:260460160031;|Type=qatal 3-4 אֲדֹנָ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 אֲדֹנ אֲדֹנָי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 2 nsubj _ Gloss=Lord|Ref=EZK_46:16!3|MId=o260460160031|Strong=0136 4 ָ֣י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 3 nmod:poss _ Gloss=[the]|Ref=EZK_46:16!3|MId=o260460160032|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 5 יְהֹוִ֗ה יְהֹוִה PROPN _ _ 3 appos _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=EZK_46:16!4|MId=o260460160041|Strong=3069 6 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 7 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=EZK_46:16!5|MId=o260460160051|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 7 יִתֵּ֨ן נָתַן VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 advcl _ Gloss=he.will.give|Ref=EZK_46:16!6|MId=o260460160061|Strong=5414|Frame=A0:260460160072;A1:260460160081;|Type=yiqtol 8-9 הַנָּשִׂ֤יא _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 9 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EZK_46:16!7|MId=o260460160071|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 9 נָּשִׂ֤יא נָשִׂיא NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 7 nsubj _ Gloss=prince|Ref=EZK_46:16!7|MId=o260460160072|Strong=5387 10 מַתָּנָה֙ מַתָּנָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 7 obj _ Gloss=a.gift|Ref=EZK_46:16!8|MId=o260460160081|Strong=4979 11-12 לְאִ֣ישׁ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EZK_46:16!9|MId=o260460160091|Strong=3807a 12 אִ֣ישׁ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 7 obl _ Gloss=anyone|Ref=EZK_46:16!9|MId=o260460160092|Strong=0376 13-15 מִבָּנָ֔יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=of|Ref=EZK_46:16!10|MId=o260460160101|Strong=4480 14 בָּנָ֔י בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 12 nmod _ Gloss=sons|Ref=EZK_46:16!10|MId=o260460160102|Strong=1121 15 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 14 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=EZK_46:16!10|MId=o260460160103|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 16-17 נַחֲלָת֥וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 נַחֲלָת נַחֲלָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 2 parataxis _ Gloss=be].his.inheritance|Ref=EZK_46:16!11|MId=o260460160111|Strong=5159 17 ֥וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 16 nmod:poss _ Gloss=[will|Ref=EZK_46:16!11|MId=o260460160112|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 18 הִ֖יא הִיא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 16 nsubj _ Gloss=it|Ref=EZK_46:16!12|MId=o260460160121|Strong=1931a|Type=personal 19-21 לְבָנָ֣יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EZK_46:16!13|MId=o260460160131|Strong=3807a 20 בָנָ֣י בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 2 parataxis _ Gloss=sons|Ref=EZK_46:16!13|MId=o260460160132|Strong=1121 21 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 20 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=EZK_46:16!13|MId=o260460160133|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 22 תִּֽהְיֶ֑ה הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 20 cop _ Gloss=it.will.belong|Ref=EZK_46:16!14|MId=o260460160141|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:260460160081;|Type=yiqtol 23-24 אֲחֻזָּתָ֥ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 אֲחֻזָּת אֲחֻזָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 2 parataxis _ Gloss=be].their.possession|Ref=EZK_46:16!15|MId=o260460160151|Strong=0272 24 ָ֥ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 23 nmod:poss _ Gloss=[will|Ref=EZK_46:16!15|MId=o260460160152|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 25 הִ֖יא הִיא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 23 nsubj _ Gloss=it|Ref=EZK_46:16!16|MId=o260460160161|Strong=1931a|Type=personal 26-27 בְּנַחֲלָֽה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 27 case _ Gloss=(in).an|Ref=EZK_46:16!17|MId=o260460160171|Strong=0871a 27 נַחֲלָֽה נַחֲלָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 23 obl _ Gloss=inheritance|Ref=EZK_46:16!17|MId=o260460160172|Strong=5159 28 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 27 punct _ Ref=EZK_46:16!17 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | אָמַר *he says* | qatal · qal | אֲדֹנ *Lord* | | | | | יִתֵּן *he will give* | yiqtol · qal | נָּשִׂיא *prince* | מַתָּנָה *a gift* | | | | תִּֽהְיֶה *it will belong* | yiqtol · qal | מַתָּנָה *a gift* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
