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 — these, priest — and what happens in the verse to wine, strong drink, vision, judgment, 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. וְגַם־אֵ֙לֶּה֙ בַּיַּ֣יִן שָׁג֔וּ וּבַשֵּׁכָ֖ר תָּע֑וּ כֹּהֵ֣ן וְנָבִיא֩ שָׁג֨וּ בַשֵּׁכָ֜ר נִבְלְע֣וּ מִן־הַיַּ֗יִן תָּעוּ֙ מִן־הַשֵּׁכָ֔ר שָׁגוּ֙ בָּֽרֹאֶ֔ה פָּק֖וּ פְּלִילִיָּֽה׃ [But these also reel through wine, and stagger through strong drink; the priest and the prophet reel through strong drink, they are confused because of wine, they stagger because of strong drink; they reel in vision, they totter in judgment.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ISA.565/) ## 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:516 # text = וְגַם־אֵ֙לֶּה֙ בַּיַּ֣יִן שָׁג֔וּ וּבַשֵּׁכָ֖ר תָּע֑וּ כֹּהֵ֣ן וְנָבִיא֩ שָׁג֨וּ בַשֵּׁכָ֜ר נִבְלְע֣וּ מִן־הַיַּ֗יִן תָּעוּ֙ מִן־הַשֵּׁכָ֔ר שָׁגוּ֙ בָּֽרֹאֶ֔ה פָּק֖וּ פְּלִילִיָּֽה׃ # verse = ISA.28.7 1-2 וְגַם־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 7 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_28:7!1|MId=o230280070011|Strong=2050b 2 גַם־ גַּם ADV _ _ 7 advmod _ Gloss=also|Ref=ISA_28:7!1|MId=o230280070012|Strong=1571|Type=affirmation 3 אֵ֙לֶּה֙ אֵלֶּה PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|PronType=Dem 7 nsubj _ Gloss=these|Ref=ISA_28:7!2|MId=o230280070021|Strong=0428|Type=demonstrative 4-6 בַּיַּ֣יִן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=ISA_28:7!3|MId=o230280070031|Strong=0871a 5 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 6 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=ISA_28:7!3|MId=o230280070031ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 6 יַּ֣יִן יַיִן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 7 obl _ Gloss=wine|Ref=ISA_28:7!3|MId=o230280070032|Strong=3196 7 שָׁג֔וּ שָׁגָה VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.reeled|Ref=ISA_28:7!4|MId=o230280070041|Strong=7686|Frame=A0:230280070021;|Type=qatal 8-11 וּבַשֵּׁכָ֖ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 12 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_28:7!5|MId=o230280070051|Strong=2050b 9 בַ בְּ ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=with.(the)|Ref=ISA_28:7!5|MId=o230280070052|Strong=0871a 10 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 11 det _ Gloss=strong|Ref=ISA_28:7!5|MId=o230280070052ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 11 שֵּׁכָ֖ר שֵׁכָר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 12 obl _ Gloss=drink|Ref=ISA_28:7!5|MId=o230280070053|Strong=7941 12 תָּע֑וּ תָּעָה VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 7 conj _ Gloss=they.staggered|Ref=ISA_28:7!6|MId=o230280070061|Strong=8582|Frame=A0:230280060033;230280060071;|Type=qatal 13 כֹּהֵ֣ן כֹּהֵן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 16 nsubj _ Gloss=priest|Ref=ISA_28:7!7|MId=o230280070071|Strong=3548 14-15 וְנָבִיא֩ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 15 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_28:7!8|MId=o230280070081|Strong=2050b 15 נָבִיא֩ נָבִיא NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 13 conj _ Gloss=prophet|Ref=ISA_28:7!8|MId=o230280070082|Strong=5030 16 שָׁג֨וּ שָׁגָה VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 7 parataxis _ Gloss=they.reeled|Ref=ISA_28:7!9|MId=o230280070091|Strong=7686|Frame=A0:230280070071;230280070082;|Type=qatal 17-19 בַשֵּׁכָ֜ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 בַ בְּ ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=with.(the)|Ref=ISA_28:7!10|MId=o230280070101|Strong=0871a 18 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 19 det _ Gloss=strong|Ref=ISA_28:7!10|MId=o230280070101ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 19 שֵּׁכָ֜ר שֵׁכָר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 16 obl _ Gloss=drink|Ref=ISA_28:7!10|MId=o230280070102|Strong=7941 20 נִבְלְע֣וּ בָּלַע VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 7 parataxis _ Gloss=they.were.confused|Ref=ISA_28:7!11|MId=o230280070111|Strong=1104a|Frame=A1:230280070071;230280070082;|Type=qatal 21 מִן־ מִן ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=ISA_28:7!12|MId=o230280070121|Strong=4480|SpaceAfter=No 22-23 הַיַּ֗יִן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 23 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=ISA_28:7!13|MId=o230280070131|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 23 יַּ֗יִן יַיִן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 20 obl _ Gloss=wine|Ref=ISA_28:7!13|MId=o230280070132|Strong=3196 24 תָּעוּ֙ תָּעָה VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 7 parataxis _ Gloss=they.staggered|Ref=ISA_28:7!14|MId=o230280070141|Strong=8582|Frame=A0:230280070071;230280070082;|Type=qatal 25 מִן־ מִן ADP _ _ 27 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=ISA_28:7!15|MId=o230280070151|Strong=4480|SpaceAfter=No 26-27 הַשֵּׁכָ֔ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 27 det _ Gloss=(the).strong|Ref=ISA_28:7!16|MId=o230280070161|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 27 שֵּׁכָ֔ר שֵׁכָר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 24 obl _ Gloss=drink|Ref=ISA_28:7!16|MId=o230280070162|Strong=7941 28 שָׁגוּ֙ שָׁגָה VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 7 parataxis _ Gloss=they.reeled|Ref=ISA_28:7!17|MId=o230280070171|Strong=7686|Frame=A0:230280070071;230280070082;|Type=qatal 29-31 בָּֽרֹאֶ֔ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 29 בָּֽ בְּ ADP _ _ 31 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=ISA_28:7!18|MId=o230280070181|Strong=0871a 30 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 31 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=ISA_28:7!18|MId=o230280070181ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 31 רֹאֶ֔ה רֹאֶה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 28 obl _ Gloss=vision|Ref=ISA_28:7!18|MId=o230280070182|Strong=7203a 32 פָּק֖וּ פּוּק VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 7 parataxis _ Gloss=they.staggered|Ref=ISA_28:7!19|MId=o230280070191|Strong=6328|Frame=A0:230280070071;230280070082;|Type=qatal 33 פְּלִילִיָּֽה פְּלִילִיָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 32 obl _ Gloss=decision|Ref=ISA_28:7!20|MId=o230280070201|Strong=6417|SpaceAfter=No 34 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 33 punct _ Ref=ISA_28:7!20 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
