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 — Calamity, rumour, nations, instruction — and what happens in the verse to calamity, vision, priest, 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. הֹוָ֤ה עַל־הֹוָה֙ תָּב֔וֹא וּשְׁמֻעָ֥ה אֶל־שְׁמוּעָ֖ה תִּֽהְיֶ֑ה וּבִקְשׁ֤וּ חָזוֹן֙ מִנָּבִ֔יא וְתוֹרָה֙ תֹּאבַ֣ד מִכֹּהֵ֔ן וְעֵצָ֖ה מִזְּקֵנִֽים׃ [Calamity shall come upon calamity, and rumour shall be upon rumour; and they shall seek a vision of the prophet, and instruction shall perish from the priest, and counsel from the elders.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/EZK.145/) ## 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:138 # text = הֹוָ֤ה עַל־הֹוָה֙ תָּב֔וֹא וּשְׁמֻעָ֥ה אֶל־שְׁמוּעָ֖ה תִּֽהְיֶ֑ה וּבִקְשׁ֤וּ חָזוֹן֙ מִנָּבִ֔יא וְתוֹרָה֙ תֹּאבַ֣ד מִכֹּהֵ֔ן וְעֵצָ֖ה מִזְּקֵנִֽים׃ # verse = EZK.7.26 1 הֹוָ֤ה הֹוָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 4 nsubj _ Gloss=disaster|Ref=EZK_7:26!1|MId=o260070260011|Strong=1943 2 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 3 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EZK_7:26!2|MId=o260070260021|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 3 הֹוָה֙ הֹוָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 4 obl _ Gloss=disaster|Ref=EZK_7:26!3|MId=o260070260031|Strong=1943 4 תָּב֔וֹא בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=it.will.come|Ref=EZK_7:26!4|MId=o260070260041|Strong=0935|Frame=A0:260070260011;|Type=yiqtol 5-6 וּשְׁמֻעָ֥ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 8 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_7:26!5|MId=o260070260051|Strong=2050b 6 שְׁמֻעָ֥ה שְׁמוּעָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 8 nsubj _ Gloss=report|Ref=EZK_7:26!5|MId=o260070260052|Strong=8052 7 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EZK_7:26!6|MId=o260070260061|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 8 שְׁמוּעָ֖ה שְׁמוּעָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 4 conj _ Gloss=report|Ref=EZK_7:26!7|MId=o260070260071|Strong=8052 9 תִּֽהְיֶ֑ה הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 8 cop _ Gloss=it.will.be|Ref=EZK_7:26!8|MId=o260070260081|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:260070260052;|Type=yiqtol 10-11 וּבִקְשׁ֤וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 11 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_7:26!9|MId=o260070260091|Strong=2050b 11 בִקְשׁ֤וּ בָּקַשׁ VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Plur|Person=3 4 conj _ Gloss=they.will.seek|Ref=EZK_7:26!9|MId=o260070260092|Strong=1245|Frame=A0:260070070041;A1:260070260101;|Type=weqatal 12 חָזוֹן֙ חָזוֹן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 11 obj _ Gloss=a.vision|Ref=EZK_7:26!10|MId=o260070260101|Strong=2377 13-14 מִנָּבִ֔יא _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=EZK_7:26!11|MId=o260070260111|Strong=4480 14 נָּבִ֔יא נָבִיא NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 11 obl _ Gloss=a.prophet|Ref=EZK_7:26!11|MId=o260070260112|Strong=5030 15-16 וְתוֹרָה֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 17 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_7:26!12|MId=o260070260121|Strong=2050b 16 תוֹרָה֙ תּוֹרָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 17 nsubj _ Gloss=instruction|Ref=EZK_7:26!12|MId=o260070260122|Strong=8451 17 תֹּאבַ֣ד אָבַד VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 4 conj _ Gloss=it.will.be.lost|Ref=EZK_7:26!13|MId=o260070260131|Strong=0006|Frame=A0:260070260122;|Type=yiqtol 18-19 מִכֹּהֵ֔ן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=from.[the]|Ref=EZK_7:26!14|MId=o260070260141|Strong=4480 19 כֹּהֵ֔ן כֹּהֵן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 17 obl _ Gloss=priest|Ref=EZK_7:26!14|MId=o260070260142|Strong=3548 20-21 וְעֵצָ֖ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 21 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZK_7:26!15|MId=o260070260151|Strong=2050b 21 עֵצָ֖ה עֵצָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 17 conj _ Gloss=counsel|Ref=EZK_7:26!15|MId=o260070260152|Strong=6098 22-23 מִזְּקֵנִֽים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=EZK_7:26!16|MId=o260070260161|Strong=4480 23 זְּקֵנִֽים זָקֵן ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 21 obl _ Gloss=elders|Ref=EZK_7:26!16|MId=o260070260162|Strong=2205|Type=adjective 24 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 23 punct _ Ref=EZK_7:26!16 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: narrator - speech: narration - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | תָּבוֹא *it will come* | yiqtol · qal | הֹוָה *disaster* | | | | | תִּֽהְיֶה *it will be* | yiqtol · qal | שְׁמֻעָה *report* | | | | | בִקְשׁוּ *they will seek* | weqatal · piel | | חָזוֹן *a vision* | | | | תֹּאבַד *it will be lost* | yiqtol · qal | תוֹרָה *instruction* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
