# Ezekiel 6:6 יְחֶזְקֵאל

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** high places, your · **What happens:** lay, be, make, break, cease, hewn down · **To what, where:** cities, dwelling places, altars, idols, sun images, works

<!-- .vabout -->
This is Ezekiel 6:6 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 — high places, your — and what happens in the verse to cities, dwelling places, altars, idols, sun images, works, 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.

[In all your dwelling-places the cities shall be laid waste, and the high places shall be desolate; that your altars may be laid waste and made desolate, and your idols may be broken and cease, and your sun-images may be hewn down, and your works may be blotted out.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/EZK.111/)

## 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.
