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 — I — and what happens in the verse to bird, east, counsel, 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. קֹרֵ֤א מִמִּזְרָח֙ עַ֔יִט מֵאֶ֥רֶץ מֶרְחָ֖ק אִ֣ישׁ עֲצָתִ֑י אַף־דִּבַּ֙רְתִּי֙ אַף־אֲבִיאֶ֔נָּה יָצַ֖רְתִּי אַף־אֶעֱשֶֽׂנָּה׃ס [Calling a bird of prey from the east, the man of My counsel from a far country; yea, I have spoken, I will also bring it to pass, I have purposed, I will also do it.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ISA.1040/) ## 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:942 # text = קֹרֵ֤א מִמִּזְרָח֙ עַ֔יִט מֵאֶ֥רֶץ מֶרְחָ֖ק אִ֣ישׁ עֲצָתִ֑י אַף־דִּבַּ֙רְתִּי֙ אַף־אֲבִיאֶ֔נָּה יָצַ֖רְתִּי אַף־אֶעֱשֶֽׂנָּה׃ס # verse = ISA.46.11 1 קֹרֵ֤א קָרָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 0 root _ Gloss=[who].calls|Ref=ISA_46:11!1|MId=o230460110011|Strong=7121|Frame=A0:230450250012;A1:230460110031;|Type=participle_active 2-3 מִמִּזְרָח֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 2 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 3 case _ Gloss=from.[the]|Ref=ISA_46:11!2|MId=o230460110021|Strong=4480 3 מִּזְרָח֙ מִזְרָח NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 1 obl _ Gloss=east|Ref=ISA_46:11!2|MId=o230460110022|Strong=4217 4 עַ֔יִט עַיִט NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 1 obj _ Gloss=a.bird.of.prey|Ref=ISA_46:11!3|MId=o230460110031|Strong=5861 5-6 מֵאֶ֥רֶץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 מֵ מִן ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=ISA_46:11!4|MId=o230460110041|Strong=4480 6 אֶ֥רֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 1 ccomp _ Gloss=a.land|Ref=ISA_46:11!4|MId=o230460110042|Strong=0776 7 מֶרְחָ֖ק מֶרְחָק NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.distance|Ref=ISA_46:11!5|MId=o230460110051|Strong=4801 8 אִ֣ישׁ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 obj _ Gloss=a.man|Ref=ISA_46:11!6|MId=o230460110061|Strong=0376 9-10 עֲצָתִ֑י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 עֲצָת עֵצָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 8 compound:smixut _ Gloss=my.purpose|Ref=ISA_46:11!8|MId=o230460110081|Strong=6098 10 ִ֑י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 9 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=ISA_46:11!8|MId=o230460110082|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 11 אַף־ אַף ADV _ _ 12 advmod _ Gloss=also|Ref=ISA_46:11!9|MId=o230460110091|Strong=0637|Type=affirmation|SpaceAfter=No 12 דִּבַּ֙רְתִּי֙ דָבַר VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=1 6 parataxis _ Gloss=I.have.spoken|Ref=ISA_46:11!10|MId=o230460110101|Strong=1696|Frame=A0:230450250012;|Type=qatal 13 אַף־ אַף ADV _ _ 14 advmod _ Gloss=also|Ref=ISA_46:11!11|MId=o230460110111|Strong=0637|Type=affirmation|SpaceAfter=No 14-15 אֲבִיאֶ֔נָּה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 אֲבִיא בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=1 12 ccomp _ Gloss=I|Ref=ISA_46:11!12|MId=o230460110121|Strong=0935|Frame=AA:230450250012;A0:230460110122;|Type=yiqtol 15 ֶ֔נָּה הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 14 obj _ Gloss=will.bring.it|Ref=ISA_46:11!12|MId=o230460110122|Strong=5089a|Type=pronominal 16 יָצַ֖רְתִּי יָצַר VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 14 parataxis _ Gloss=I.have.planned|Ref=ISA_46:11!13|MId=o230460110131|Strong=3335|Frame=A0:230450250012;A1:230460110011;|Type=qatal 17 אַף־ אַף ADV _ _ 18 advmod _ Gloss=also|Ref=ISA_46:11!14|MId=o230460110141|Strong=0637|Type=affirmation|SpaceAfter=No 18-19 אֶעֱשֶֽׂנָּה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 אֶעֱשׂ עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 14 parataxis _ Gloss=I|Ref=ISA_46:11!15|MId=o230460110151|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:230450250012;A1:230460110152;|Type=yiqtol 19 ֶֽנָּה הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 18 obj _ Gloss=will.accomplish.it|Ref=ISA_46:11!15|MId=o230460110152|Strong=5089a|Type=pronominal 20 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 19 punct _ Ref=ISA_46:11!15|SpaceAfter=No 21 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 19 punct _ Ref=ISA_46:11!15 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: no - the frame alone: decl · assert · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | קֹרֵא *\[who\] calls* | participle active · qal | | עַיִט *a bird of prey* | | | | דִּבַּרְתִּי *I have spoken* | qatal · piel | | | | | | אֲבִיא *I* | yiqtol · hiphil | ֶנָּה *will bring it* | | | | | יָצַרְתִּי *I have planned* | qatal · qal | | קֹרֵא *\[who\] calls* | | | | אֶעֱשׂ *I* | yiqtol · qal | | ֶֽנָּה *will accomplish it* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
