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 you, hoar hairs, 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. וְעַד־זִקְנָה֙ אֲנִ֣י ה֔וּא וְעַד־שֵיבָ֖האֲנִ֣י אֶסְבֹּ֑ל אֲנִ֤י עָשִׂ֙יתִי֙ וַאֲנִ֣י אֶשָּׂ֔א וַאֲנִ֥י אֶסְבֹּ֖ל וַאֲמַלֵּֽט׃ס [Even to old age I am the same, and even to hoar hairs will I carry you; I have made, and I will bear; yea, I will carry, and will deliver.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ISA.1033/) ## 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:935 # text = וְעַד־זִקְנָה֙ אֲנִ֣י ה֔וּא וְעַד־שֵיבָ֖האֲנִ֣י אֶסְבֹּ֑ל אֲנִ֤י עָשִׂ֙יתִי֙ וַאֲנִ֣י אֶשָּׂ֔א וַאֲנִ֥י אֶסְבֹּ֖ל וַאֲמַלֵּֽט׃ס # verse = ISA.46.4 1-2 וְעַד־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 5 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_46:4!1|MId=o230460040011|Strong=2050b 2 עַד־ עַד ADP _ _ 3 case _ Gloss=until|Ref=ISA_46:4!1|MId=o230460040012|Strong=5704 3 זִקְנָה֙ זִקְנָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 5 obl _ Gloss=old.age|Ref=ISA_46:4!2|MId=o230460040021|Strong=2209 4 אֲנִ֣י אֲנִי PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 5 nsubj _ Gloss=I|Ref=ISA_46:4!3|MId=o230460040031|Strong=0589|Type=personal 5 ה֔וּא הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 0 root _ Gloss=[am].he|Ref=ISA_46:4!4|MId=o230460040041|Strong=1931|Type=personal 6-7 וְעַד־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 10 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_46:4!5|MId=o230460040051|Strong=2050b 7 עַד־ עַד ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=until|Ref=ISA_46:4!5|MId=o230460040052|Strong=5704 8-9 שֵיבָ֖האֲנִ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 שֵיבָ֖ה שֵׂיבָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 10 obl _ Gloss=gray.hair|Ref=ISA_46:4!6|MId=o230460040061|Strong=7872 9 אֲנִ֣י אֲנִי PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 10 nsubj _ Gloss=I|Ref=ISA_46:4!7|MId=o230460040071|Strong=0589|Type=personal 10 אֶסְבֹּ֑ל סָבַל VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 5 conj _ Gloss=I.will.carry|Ref=ISA_46:4!8|MId=o230460040081|Strong=5445|Frame=A0:230460040071;A1:230460030031;|Type=yiqtol 11 אֲנִ֤י אֲנִי PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 12 nsubj _ Gloss=I|Ref=ISA_46:4!9|MId=o230460040091|Strong=0589|Type=personal 12 עָשִׂ֙יתִי֙ עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 5 parataxis _ Gloss=I.made|Ref=ISA_46:4!10|MId=o230460040101|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:230460040091;A1:230460030031;|Type=qatal 13-14 וַאֲנִ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 15 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_46:4!11|MId=o230460040111|Strong=2050b 14 אֲנִ֣י אֲנִי PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 15 nsubj _ Gloss=I|Ref=ISA_46:4!11|MId=o230460040112|Strong=0589|Type=personal 15 אֶשָּׂ֔א נָשָׂא VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 12 conj _ Gloss=I.will.bear|Ref=ISA_46:4!12|MId=o230460040121|Strong=5375|Frame=A0:230460040112;A1:230460030031;|Type=yiqtol 16-17 וַאֲנִ֥י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 18 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_46:4!13|MId=o230460040131|Strong=2050b 17 אֲנִ֥י אֲנִי PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 18 nsubj _ Gloss=I|Ref=ISA_46:4!13|MId=o230460040132|Strong=0589|Type=personal 18 אֶסְבֹּ֖ל סָבַל VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 12 conj _ Gloss=I.will.carry|Ref=ISA_46:4!14|MId=o230460040141|Strong=5445|Frame=A0:230460040132;A1:230460030031;|Type=yiqtol 19-20 וַאֲמַלֵּֽט _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 20 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_46:4!15|MId=o230460040151|Strong=2050b 20 אֲמַלֵּֽט מָלַט VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=1 18 conj _ Gloss=I.will.rescue|Ref=ISA_46:4!15|MId=o230460040152|Strong=4422|Frame=A0:230450250012;A1:230460030031;|Type=yiqtol 21 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 20 punct _ Ref=ISA_46:4!15|SpaceAfter=No 22 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 20 punct _ Ref=ISA_46:4!15 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | אֶסְבֹּל *I will carry* | yiqtol · qal | אֲנִי *I* | | | | | עָשִׂיתִי *I made* | qatal · qal | אֲנִי *I* | | | | | אֶשָּׂא *I will bear* | yiqtol · qal | אֲנִי *I* | | | | | אֶסְבֹּל *I will carry* | yiqtol · qal | אֲנִי *I* | | | | | אֲמַלֵּֽט *I will rescue* | yiqtol · piel | | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
