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 — ye, mouth — and what happens in the verse to ye, 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 66 chapters of Isaiah on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וְאִם־תְּמָאֲנ֖וּ וּמְרִיתֶ֑ם חֶ֣רֶב תְּאֻכְּל֔וּ כִּ֛י פִּ֥י יְהוָ֖ה דִּבֵּֽר׃ס [But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword; for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ISA.20/) ## 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:ISA:19 # text = וְאִם־תְּמָאֲנ֖וּ וּמְרִיתֶ֑ם חֶ֣רֶב תְּאֻכְּל֔וּ כִּ֛י פִּ֥י יְהוָ֖ה דִּבֵּֽר׃ס # verse = ISA.1.20 1-2 וְאִם־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 7 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_1:20!1|MId=o230010200011|Strong=2050b 2 אִם־ אִם SCONJ _ _ 3 mark _ Gloss=if|Ref=ISA_1:20!1|MId=o230010200012|Strong=0518 3 תְּמָאֲנ֖וּ מָאֵן VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Plur|Person=2 7 advcl _ Gloss=you.will.refuse|Ref=ISA_1:20!2|MId=o230010200021|Strong=3985|Frame=A0:230010100041;230010100091;|Type=yiqtol 4-5 וּמְרִיתֶ֑ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 5 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_1:20!3|MId=o230010200031|Strong=2050b 5 מְרִיתֶ֑ם מָרָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 3 conj _ Gloss=you.will.rebel|Ref=ISA_1:20!3|MId=o230010200032|Strong=4784|Frame=A0:230010100041;230010100091;|Type=weqatal 6 חֶ֣רֶב חֶרֶב NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 7 obl _ Gloss=[the].sword|Ref=ISA_1:20!4|MId=o230010200041|Strong=2719 7 תְּאֻכְּל֔וּ אָכַל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QALPASSIVE|Number=Plur|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=you.will.be.eaten|Ref=ISA_1:20!5|MId=o230010200051|Strong=0398|Frame=A1:230010100041;230010100091;|Type=yiqtol 8 כִּ֛י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 11 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=ISA_1:20!6|MId=o230010200061|Strong=3588 9 פִּ֥י פֶּה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 11 nsubj _ Gloss=the.mouth|Ref=ISA_1:20!7|MId=o230010200071|Strong=6310 10 יְהוָ֖ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 9 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=ISA_1:20!8|MId=o230010200081|Strong=3068 11 דִּבֵּֽר דָבַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=3 7 advcl _ Gloss=it.has.spoken|Ref=ISA_1:20!9|MId=o230010200091|Strong=1696|Frame=A0:230010200071;|Type=qatal|SpaceAfter=No 12 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 11 punct _ Ref=ISA_1:20!9|SpaceAfter=No 13 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 11 punct _ Ref=ISA_1:20!9 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: request - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: no - indirect: yes | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | תְּמָאֲנוּ *you will refuse* | yiqtol · piel | | | | | | מְרִיתֶם *you will rebel* | weqatal · qal | | | | | | תְּאֻכְּלוּ *you will be eaten* | yiqtol · qalpassive | | | | | | דִּבֵּֽר *it has spoken* | qatal · piel | פִּי *the mouth* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
