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 — you, Ammi, I — and what happens in the verse to wife, husband, Ammi, harlotries, face, 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 14 chapters of Hosea on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. רִ֤יבוּ בְאִמְּכֶם֙ רִ֔יבוּ כִּֽי־הִיא֙ לֹ֣א אִשְׁתִּ֔י וְאָנֹכִ֖י לֹ֣א אִישָׁ֑הּ וְתָסֵ֤ר זְנוּנֶ֙יהָ֙ מִפָּנֶ֔יהוְנַאֲפוּפֶ֖יהָ מִבֵּ֥ין שָׁדֶֽיהָ׃ [Plead with your mother, plead; for she is not My wife, neither am I her husband; and let her put away her harlotries from her face, and her adulteries from between her breasts;](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/HOS.13/) ## 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:HOS:12 # text = רִ֤יבוּ בְאִמְּכֶם֙ רִ֔יבוּ כִּֽי־הִיא֙ לֹ֣א אִשְׁתִּ֔י וְאָנֹכִ֖י לֹ֣א אִישָׁ֑הּ וְתָסֵ֤ר זְנוּנֶ֙יהָ֙ מִפָּנֶ֔יהוְנַאֲפוּפֶ֖יהָ מִבֵּ֥ין שָׁדֶֽיהָ׃ # verse = HOS.2.4 1 רִ֤יבוּ רִיב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=conduct.a.case|Ref=HOS_2:4!1|MId=o280020040011|Strong=7378|Frame=A0:280020020021;280020020042;|Type=imperative 2-4 בְאִמְּכֶם֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 2 בְ בְּ ADP _ _ 3 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=HOS_2:4!2|MId=o280020040021|Strong=0871a 3 אִמּ אֵם NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 1 obl _ Gloss=mother|Ref=HOS_2:4!2|MId=o280020040022|Strong=0517 4 ְכֶם֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 3 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=HOS_2:4!2|MId=o280020040023|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 5 רִ֔יבוּ רִיב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 1 parataxis _ Gloss=conduct.a.case|Ref=HOS_2:4!3|MId=o280020040031|Strong=7378|Frame=A0:280020020021;280020020042;|Type=imperative 6 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 9 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=HOS_2:4!4|MId=o280020040041|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 7 הִיא֙ הִיא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 9 nsubj _ Gloss=she|Ref=HOS_2:4!5|MId=o280020040051|Strong=1931a|Type=personal 8 לֹ֣א לֹא ADV _ _ 9 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=HOS_2:4!6|MId=o280020040061|Strong=3808|Type=negative 9-10 אִשְׁתִּ֔י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 אִשְׁתּ אִשָּׁה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 1 advcl _ Gloss=wife|Ref=HOS_2:4!7|MId=o280020040071|Strong=0802 10 ִ֔י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 9 nmod:poss _ Gloss=[is].my|Ref=HOS_2:4!7|MId=o280020040072|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 11-12 וְאָנֹכִ֖י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 14 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=HOS_2:4!8|MId=o280020040081|Strong=2050b 12 אָנֹכִ֖י אָנֹכִי PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 14 nsubj _ Gloss=I|Ref=HOS_2:4!8|MId=o280020040082|Strong=0595|Type=personal 13 לֹ֣א לֹא ADV _ _ 14 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=HOS_2:4!9|MId=o280020040091|Strong=3808|Type=negative 14-15 אִישָׁ֑הּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 אִישׁ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 1 conj _ Gloss=husband|Ref=HOS_2:4!10|MId=o280020040101|Strong=0376 15 ָ֑הּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 14 nmod:poss _ Gloss=[am].her|Ref=HOS_2:4!10|MId=o280020040102|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 16-17 וְתָסֵ֤ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 17 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=HOS_2:4!11|MId=o280020040111|Strong=2050b 17 תָסֵ֤ר סוּר VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 1 conj _ Gloss=let.her.remove|Ref=HOS_2:4!11|MId=o280020040112|Strong=5493|Frame=AA:280020040022;A0:280020040121;|Type=jussive 18-19 זְנוּנֶ֙יהָ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 זְנוּנֶ֙י זְנוּנִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 17 obj _ Gloss=prostitution(s)|Ref=HOS_2:4!12|MId=o280020040121|Strong=2183 19 הָ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 18 nmod:poss _ Gloss=her|Ref=HOS_2:4!12|MId=o280020040122|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 20-25 מִפָּנֶ֔יהוְנַאֲפוּפֶ֖יהָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 21 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=HOS_2:4!13|MId=o280020040131|Strong=4480 21 פָּנֶ֔י פָּנֶה NOUN _ Number=Plur 17 obl _ Gloss=face|Ref=HOS_2:4!13|MId=o280020040132|Strong=6440 22 ה הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 21 nmod:poss _ Gloss=her|Ref=HOS_2:4!13|MId=o280020040133|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 23 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 24 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=HOS_2:4!14|MId=o280020040141|Strong=2050b 24 נַאֲפוּפֶ֖י נַאֲפוּפִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 17 conj _ Gloss=adulteries|Ref=HOS_2:4!14|MId=o280020040142|Strong=5005 25 הָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 24 nmod:poss _ Gloss=her|Ref=HOS_2:4!14|MId=o280020040143|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 26-27 מִבֵּ֥ין _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 28 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=HOS_2:4!15|MId=o280020040151|Strong=4480 27 בֵּ֥ין בֵּין ADP _ _ 28 case _ Gloss=between|Ref=HOS_2:4!15|MId=o280020040152|Strong=0996 28-29 שָׁדֶֽיהָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 28 שָׁדֶֽי שַׁד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Dual 24 obl _ Gloss=breasts|Ref=HOS_2:4!16|MId=o280020040161|Strong=7699 29 הָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 28 nmod:poss _ Gloss=her|Ref=HOS_2:4!16|MId=o280020040162|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 30 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 29 punct _ Ref=HOS_2:4!16 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: command - act: request - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: yes | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | רִיבוּ *conduct a case* | imperative · qal | | | | | | רִיבוּ *conduct a case* | imperative · qal | | | | | | תָסֵר *let her remove* | jussive · hiphil | זְנוּנֶי *prostitution(s)* | | | אִמּ *mother* | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
