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, beasts, pestilence — and what happens in the verse to famine, thee, sword, 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. וְשִׁלַּחְתִּ֣י עֲ֠לֵיכֶם רָעָ֞ב וְחַיָּ֤ה רָעָה֙ וְשִׁכְּלֻ֔ךְ וְדֶ֥בֶר וָדָ֖ם יַעֲבָר־בָּ֑ךְ וְחֶ֙רֶב֙ אָבִ֣יא עָלַ֔יִךְ אֲנִ֥י יְהוָ֖ה דִּבַּֽרְתִּי׃פ [and I will send upon you famine and evil beasts, and they shall bereave thee; and pestilence and blood shall pass through thee; and I will bring the sword upon thee.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/EZK.104/) [I the LORD have spoken it.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/EZK.105/) ## 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:98 # text = וְשִׁלַּחְתִּ֣י עֲ֠לֵיכֶם רָעָ֞ב וְחַיָּ֤ה רָעָה֙ וְשִׁכְּלֻ֔ךְ וְדֶ֥בֶר וָדָ֖ם יַעֲבָר־בָּ֑ךְ וְחֶ֙רֶב֙ אָבִ֣יא עָלַ֔יִךְ אֲנִ֥י יְהוָ֖ה דִּבַּֽרְתִּי׃פ # verse = EZK.5.17 1-2 וְשִׁלַּחְתִּ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_5:17!1|MId=o260050170011|Strong=2050b 2 שִׁלַּחְתִּ֣י שָׁלַח VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=1 0 root _ Gloss=I.will.send|Ref=EZK_5:17!1|MId=o260050170012|Strong=7971|Frame=A0:260050150171;A1:260050170031;260050170042;|Type=weqatal 3-4 עֲ֠לֵיכֶם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 עֲ֠לֵי עַל ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=EZK_5:17!2|MId=o260050170021|Strong=5921 4 כֶם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 2 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=EZK_5:17!2|MId=o260050170022|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 5 רָעָ֞ב רָעָב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obj _ Gloss=famine|Ref=EZK_5:17!3|MId=o260050170031|Strong=7458 6-7 וְחַיָּ֤ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 7 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_5:17!4|MId=o260050170041|Strong=2050b 7 חַיָּ֤ה חַיָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 5 conj _ Gloss=animal[s]|Ref=EZK_5:17!4|MId=o260050170042|Strong=2416c 8 רָעָה֙ רַע ADJ _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 7 amod _ Gloss=wild|Ref=EZK_5:17!5|MId=o260050170051|Strong=7451|Type=adjective 9-11 וְשִׁכְּלֻ֔ךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 10 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_5:17!6|MId=o260050170061|Strong=2050b 10 שִׁכְּלֻ֔ שָׁכֹל VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=they|Ref=EZK_5:17!6|MId=o260050170062|Strong=7921|Frame=A0:260050170031;260050170042;A1:260050170063;|Type=weqatal 11 ךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 10 obj _ Gloss=will.make.you.childless|Ref=EZK_5:17!6|MId=o260050170063|Strong=3509c|Type=pronominal 12-13 וְדֶ֥בֶר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 16 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_5:17!7|MId=o260050170071|Strong=2050b 13 דֶ֥בֶר דֶּבֶר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 16 nsubj _ Gloss=pestilence|Ref=EZK_5:17!7|MId=o260050170072|Strong=1698 14-15 וָדָ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 וָ וְ CCONJ _ _ 15 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_5:17!8|MId=o260050170081|Strong=2050b 15 דָ֖ם דָּם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 13 conj _ Gloss=blood|Ref=EZK_5:17!8|MId=o260050170082|Strong=1818 16 יַעֲבָר־ עָבַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=it.will.pass|Ref=EZK_5:17!9|MId=o260050170091|Strong=5674|Frame=A0:260050170072;260050170082;|Type=yiqtol|SpaceAfter=No 17-18 בָּ֑ךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 בּ בְּ ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=EZK_5:17!10|MId=o260050170101|Strong=0871a 18 ָ֑ךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 16 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=EZK_5:17!10|MId=o260050170102|Strong=3509c|Type=pronominal 19-20 וְחֶ֙רֶב֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 21 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_5:17!11|MId=o260050170111|Strong=2050b 20 חֶ֙רֶב֙ חֶרֶב NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 21 obj _ Gloss=sword|Ref=EZK_5:17!11|MId=o260050170112|Strong=2719 21 אָבִ֣יא בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=1 2 conj _ Gloss=I.will.bring|Ref=EZK_5:17!12|MId=o260050170121|Strong=0935|Frame=AA:260050150171;A0:260050170112;|Type=yiqtol 22-23 עָלַ֔יִךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 עָלַ֔י עַל ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=EZK_5:17!13|MId=o260050170131|Strong=5921 23 ִךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 21 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=EZK_5:17!13|MId=o260050170132|Strong=3509c|Type=pronominal 24 אֲנִ֥י אֲנִי PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 26 nsubj _ Gloss=I|Ref=EZK_5:17!14|MId=o260050170141|Strong=0589|Type=personal 25 יְהוָ֖ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 24 appos _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=EZK_5:17!15|MId=o260050170151|Strong=3068 26 דִּבַּֽרְתִּי דָבַר VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=1 2 parataxis _ Gloss=I.have.spoken|Ref=EZK_5:17!16|MId=o260050170161|Strong=1696|Frame=A0:260050170141;|Type=qatal|SpaceAfter=No 27 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=EZK_5:17!16|SpaceAfter=No 28 פ פ PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=EZK_5:17!16 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: promise - 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | שִׁלַּחְתִּי *I will send* | weqatal · piel | | רָעָב *famine* + חַיָּה *animal\[s\]* | | | | שִׁכְּלֻ *they* | weqatal · piel | רָעָב *famine* + חַיָּה *animal\[s\]* | ךְ *will make you childless* | | | | יַעֲבָר־ *it will pass* | yiqtol · qal | דֶבֶר *pestilence* + דָם *blood* | | | | | אָבִיא *I will bring* | yiqtol · hiphil | חֶרֶב *sword* | | | | | דִּבַּֽרְתִּי *I have spoken* | qatal · piel | אֲנִי *I* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
