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: what happens in the verse to loftiness, haughtiness, LORD, 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. וְשַׁח֙ גַּבְה֣וּת הָאָדָ֔ם וְשָׁפֵ֖ל ר֣וּם אֲנָשִׁ֑ים וְנִשְׂגַּ֧ב יְהוָ֛ה לְבַדּ֖וֹ בַּיּ֥וֹם הַהֽוּא׃ [And the loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be brought low; and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ISA.49/) ## 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:47 # text = וְשַׁח֙ גַּבְה֣וּת הָאָדָ֔ם וְשָׁפֵ֖ל ר֣וּם אֲנָשִׁ֑ים וְנִשְׂגַּ֧ב יְהוָ֛ה לְבַדּ֖וֹ בַּיּ֥וֹם הַהֽוּא׃ # verse = ISA.2.17 1-2 וְשַׁח֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_2:17!1|MId=o230020170011|Strong=2050b 2 שַׁח֙ שָׁחַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=it.will.be.humbled|Ref=ISA_2:17!1|MId=o230020170012|Strong=7817|Frame=A0:230020170021;|Type=weqatal 3 גַּבְה֣וּת גַּבְהוּת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 2 nsubj _ Gloss=the.pride|Ref=ISA_2:17!2|MId=o230020170021|Strong=1365 4-5 הָאָדָ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 5 det _ Gloss=of.(the)|Ref=ISA_2:17!3|MId=o230020170031|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 5 אָדָ֔ם אָדָם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 compound:smixut _ Gloss=humankind|Ref=ISA_2:17!3|MId=o230020170032|Strong=0120 6-7 וְשָׁפֵ֖ל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 7 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_2:17!4|MId=o230020170041|Strong=2050b 7 שָׁפֵ֖ל שָׁפֵל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=it.will.become.low|Ref=ISA_2:17!4|MId=o230020170042|Strong=8213|Frame=A0:230020170051;|Type=weqatal 8 ר֣וּם רוּם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 7 nsubj _ Gloss=[the].haughtiness|Ref=ISA_2:17!5|MId=o230020170051|Strong=7312 9 אֲנָשִׁ֑ים אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 8 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.people|Ref=ISA_2:17!6|MId=o230020170061|Strong=0376 10-11 וְנִשְׂגַּ֧ב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 11 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_2:17!7|MId=o230020170071|Strong=2050b 11 נִשְׂגַּ֧ב שָׂגַב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.will.be.exalted|Ref=ISA_2:17!7|MId=o230020170072|Strong=7682|Frame=A1:230020170081;|Type=weqatal 12 יְהוָ֛ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 11 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=ISA_2:17!8|MId=o230020170081|Strong=3068 13-15 לְבַדּ֖וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=he|Ref=ISA_2:17!9|MId=o230020170091|Strong=3807a 14 בַדּ בַּד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 11 obl _ Gloss=|Ref=ISA_2:17!9|MId=o230020170092|Strong=0905 15 ֖וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 14 nmod:poss _ Gloss=alone|Ref=ISA_2:17!9|MId=o230020170093|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 16-18 בַּיּ֥וֹם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=ISA_2:17!10|MId=o230020170101|Strong=0871a 17 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 18 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=ISA_2:17!10|MId=o230020170101ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 18 יּ֥וֹם יוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 11 obl _ Gloss=day|Ref=ISA_2:17!10|MId=o230020170102|Strong=3117 19-20 הַהֽוּא _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 20 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=ISA_2:17!11|MId=o230020170111|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 20 הֽוּא הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 18 det _ Gloss=that|Ref=ISA_2:17!11|MId=o230020170112|Strong=1931|Type=personal 21 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 20 punct _ Ref=ISA_2:17!11 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | שַׁח *it will be humbled* | weqatal · qal | גַּבְהוּת *the pride* | | | | | שָׁפֵל *it will become low* | weqatal · qal | רוּם *\[the\] haughtiness* | | | | | נִשְׂגַּב *he will be exalted* | weqatal · niphal | | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
