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 — One thousand, thou, ground, cattle — and what happens in the verse to rain, ground, large pastures, 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. וְנָתַן֩ מְטַ֨ר זַרְעֲךָ֜ אֲשֶׁר־תִּזְרַ֣ע אֶת־הָאֲדָמָ֗ה וְלֶ֙חֶם֙ תְּבוּאַ֣ת הָֽאֲדָמָ֔ה וְהָיָ֥ה דָשֵׁ֖ן וְשָׁמֵ֑ן יִרְעֶ֥ה מִקְנֶ֛יךָ בַּיּ֥וֹם הַה֖וּא כַּ֥ר נִרְחָֽב׃ [And He will give the rain for thy seed, wherewith thou sowest the ground, and bread of the increase of the ground, and it shall be fat and plenteous; in that day shall thy cattle feed in large pastures.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ISA.641/) ## 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:585 # text = וְנָתַן֩ מְטַ֨ר זַרְעֲךָ֜ אֲשֶׁר־תִּזְרַ֣ע אֶת־הָאֲדָמָ֗ה וְלֶ֙חֶם֙ תְּבוּאַ֣ת הָֽאֲדָמָ֔ה וְהָיָ֥ה דָשֵׁ֖ן וְשָׁמֵ֑ן יִרְעֶ֥ה מִקְנֶ֛יךָ בַּיּ֥וֹם הַה֖וּא כַּ֥ר נִרְחָֽב׃ # verse = ISA.30.23 1-2 וְנָתַן֩ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_30:23!1|MId=o230300230011|Strong=2050b 2 נָתַן֩ נָתַן VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.will.give|Ref=ISA_30:23!1|MId=o230300230012|Strong=5414|Frame=A0:230300200031;A1:230300230021;230300230082;|Type=weqatal 3 מְטַ֨ר מָטַר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obj _ Gloss=the.rain|Ref=ISA_30:23!2|MId=o230300230021|Strong=4306 4-5 זַרְעֲךָ֜ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 זַרְע זֶרַע NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 compound:smixut _ Gloss=your.seed|Ref=ISA_30:23!3|MId=o230300230031|Strong=2233 5 ֲךָ֜ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 4 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=ISA_30:23!3|MId=o230300230032|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 6 אֲשֶׁר־ אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 7 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=ISA_30:23!4|MId=o230300230041|Strong=0834|Type=relative|SpaceAfter=No 7 תִּזְרַ֣ע זָרַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 4 acl:relcl _ Gloss=you.will.sow|Ref=ISA_30:23!5|MId=o230300230051|Strong=2232|Frame=A0:230300190021;A2:230300230072;A1:230300230031;|Type=yiqtol 8 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=ISA_30:23!6|MId=o230300230061|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 9-10 הָאֲדָמָ֗ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 10 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=ISA_30:23!7|MId=o230300230071|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 10 אֲדָמָ֗ה אֲדָמָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 7 obj _ Gloss=ground|Ref=ISA_30:23!7|MId=o230300230072|Strong=0127 11-12 וְלֶ֙חֶם֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 12 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_30:23!8|MId=o230300230081|Strong=2050b 12 לֶ֙חֶם֙ לֶחֶם NOUN _ Number=Sing 3 conj _ Gloss=food|Ref=ISA_30:23!8|MId=o230300230082|Strong=3899 13 תְּבוּאַ֣ת תְּבוּאָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 12 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.produce|Ref=ISA_30:23!9|MId=o230300230091|Strong=8393 14-15 הָֽאֲדָמָ֔ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 הָֽ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 15 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=ISA_30:23!10|MId=o230300230101|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 15 אֲדָמָ֔ה אֲדָמָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 13 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.ground|Ref=ISA_30:23!10|MId=o230300230102|Strong=0127 16-17 וְהָיָ֥ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 18 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_30:23!11|MId=o230300230111|Strong=2050b 17 הָיָ֥ה הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 18 cop _ Gloss=it.will.be|Ref=ISA_30:23!11|MId=o230300230112|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:230300230082;|Type=weqatal 18 דָשֵׁ֖ן דָּשֵׁן ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 conj _ Gloss=fat|Ref=ISA_30:23!12|MId=o230300230121|Strong=1879|Type=adjective 19-20 וְשָׁמֵ֑ן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 20 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_30:23!13|MId=o230300230131|Strong=2050b 20 שָׁמֵ֑ן שָׁמֵן ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 18 amod _ Gloss=fat|Ref=ISA_30:23!13|MId=o230300230132|Strong=8082|Type=adjective 21 יִרְעֶ֥ה רָעָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 parataxis _ Gloss=it.will.graze|Ref=ISA_30:23!14|MId=o230300230141|Strong=7462|Frame=A0:230300230151;|Type=yiqtol 22-23 מִקְנֶ֛יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 מִקְנֶ֛י מִקְנֶה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 21 nsubj _ Gloss=livestock|Ref=ISA_30:23!15|MId=o230300230151|Strong=4735 23 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 22 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=ISA_30:23!15|MId=o230300230152|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 24-26 בַּיּ֥וֹם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 26 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=ISA_30:23!16|MId=o230300230161|Strong=0871a 25 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 26 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=ISA_30:23!16|MId=o230300230161ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 26 יּ֥וֹם יוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 21 obl _ Gloss=day|Ref=ISA_30:23!16|MId=o230300230162|Strong=3117 27-28 הַה֖וּא _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 28 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=ISA_30:23!17|MId=o230300230171|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 28 ה֖וּא הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 26 det _ Gloss=that|Ref=ISA_30:23!17|MId=o230300230172|Strong=1931|Type=personal 29 כַּ֥ר כַּר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 21 obl _ Gloss=pasture|Ref=ISA_30:23!18|MId=o230300230181|Strong=3733a 30 נִרְחָֽב רָחַב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing 29 nmod _ Gloss=broad|Ref=ISA_30:23!19|MId=o230300230191|Strong=7337|Frame=A0:230300230181;|Type=participle_active|SpaceAfter=No 31 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 30 punct _ Ref=ISA_30:23!19 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
