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 — Lord, Teacher, eyes — and what happens in the verse to sparing bread, you, LORD, Teacher, 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. וְנָתַ֨ן לָכֶ֧ם אֲדֹנָ֛י לֶ֥חֶם צָ֖ר וּמַ֣יִם לָ֑חַץ וְלֹֽא־יִכָּנֵ֥ף עוֹד֙ מוֹרֶ֔יךָ וְהָי֥וּ עֵינֶ֖יךָ רֹא֥וֹת אֶת־מוֹרֶֽיךָ׃ [And though the Lord give you sparing bread and scant water, yet shall not thy Teacher hide Himself any more, but thine eyes shall see thy Teacher;](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ISA.638/) ## 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:582 # text = וְנָתַ֨ן לָכֶ֧ם אֲדֹנָ֛י לֶ֥חֶם צָ֖ר וּמַ֣יִם לָ֑חַץ וְלֹֽא־יִכָּנֵ֥ף עוֹד֙ מוֹרֶ֔יךָ וְהָי֥וּ עֵינֶ֖יךָ רֹא֥וֹת אֶת־מוֹרֶֽיךָ׃ # verse = ISA.30.20 1-2 וְנָתַ֨ן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_30:20!1|MId=o230300200011|Strong=2050b 2 נָתַ֨ן נָתַן VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.will.give|Ref=ISA_30:20!1|MId=o230300200012|Strong=5414|Frame=A0:230300200031;A1:230300200041;230300200062;|Type=weqatal 3-4 לָכֶ֧ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 ל לְ ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=ISA_30:20!2|MId=o230300200021|Strong=3807a 4 ָכֶ֧ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 2 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=ISA_30:20!2|MId=o230300200022|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 5-6 אֲדֹנָ֛י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 אֲדֹנ אֲדֹנָי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 2 nsubj _ Gloss=Lord|Ref=ISA_30:20!3|MId=o230300200031|Strong=0136 6 ָ֛י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 5 nmod:poss _ Gloss=[the]|Ref=ISA_30:20!3|MId=o230300200032|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 7 לֶ֥חֶם לֶחֶם NOUN _ Number=Sing 2 obj _ Gloss=bread|Ref=ISA_30:20!4|MId=o230300200041|Strong=3899 8 צָ֖ר צַר ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 7 amod _ Gloss=of.distress|Ref=ISA_30:20!5|MId=o230300200051|Strong=6862|Type=adjective 9-10 וּמַ֣יִם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 10 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_30:20!6|MId=o230300200061|Strong=2050b 10 מַ֣יִם מַיִם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 7 conj _ Gloss=water|Ref=ISA_30:20!6|MId=o230300200062|Strong=4325 11 לָ֑חַץ לַחַץ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 10 appos _ Gloss=oppression|Ref=ISA_30:20!7|MId=o230300200071|Strong=3906 12-13 וְלֹֽא־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 14 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_30:20!8|MId=o230300200081|Strong=2050b 13 לֹֽא־ לֹא ADV _ _ 14 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=ISA_30:20!8|MId=o230300200082|Strong=3808|Type=negative 14 יִכָּנֵ֥ף כָּנַף VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.will.hide.himself|Ref=ISA_30:20!9|MId=o230300200091|Strong=3670|Frame=A0:230300200111;|Type=yiqtol 15 עוֹד֙ עוֹד ADV _ _ 14 advmod _ Gloss=again|Ref=ISA_30:20!10|MId=o230300200101|Strong=5750 16-17 מוֹרֶ֔יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 מוֹרֶ֔י מֹורֶה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 14 nsubj _ Gloss=teachers|Ref=ISA_30:20!11|MId=o230300200111|Strong=4175b 17 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 16 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=ISA_30:20!11|MId=o230300200112|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 18-19 וְהָי֥וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 22 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_30:20!12|MId=o230300200121|Strong=2050b 19 הָי֥וּ הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 22 cop _ Gloss=they.will.be|Ref=ISA_30:20!12|MId=o230300200122|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:230300200131;|Type=weqatal 20-21 עֵינֶ֖יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 עֵינֶ֖י עַיִן NOUN _ Number=Dual 22 nsubj _ Gloss=eyes|Ref=ISA_30:20!13|MId=o230300200131|Strong=5869 21 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 20 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=ISA_30:20!13|MId=o230300200132|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 22 רֹא֥וֹת רָאָה VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur 2 conj _ Gloss=seeing|Ref=ISA_30:20!14|MId=o230300200141|Strong=7200|Frame=A0:230300200131;A1:230300200161;|Type=participle_active 23 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 24 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=ISA_30:20!15|MId=o230300200151|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 24-25 מוֹרֶֽיךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 מוֹרֶֽי מֹורֶה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 22 obj _ Gloss=teachers|Ref=ISA_30:20!16|MId=o230300200161|Strong=4175b 25 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 24 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=ISA_30:20!16|MId=o230300200162|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 26 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 25 punct _ Ref=ISA_30:20!16 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | נָתַן *he will give* | weqatal · qal | אֲדֹנ *Lord* | לֶחֶם *bread* + מַיִם *water* | | | | **not** יִכָּנֵף *he will hide himself* | yiqtol · niphal | מוֹרֶי *teachers* | | | | | הָיוּ *they will be* | weqatal · qal | עֵינֶי *eyes* | | | | | רֹאוֹת *seeing* | participle active · qal | עֵינֶי *eyes* | מוֹרֶֽי *teachers* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
