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 — harp, LORD — and what happens in the verse to feasts, work, operation, hands, 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. וְהָיָ֨ה כִנּ֜וֹר וָנֶ֗בֶל תֹּ֧ף וְחָלִ֛יל וָיַ֖יִן מִשְׁתֵּיהֶ֑ם וְאֵ֨ת פֹּ֤עַל יְהוָה֙ לֹ֣א יַבִּ֔יטוּ וּמַעֲשֵׂ֥ה יָדָ֖יו לֹ֥א רָאֽוּ׃ [And the harp and the psaltery, the tabret and the pipe, and wine, are in their feasts; but they regard not the work of the LORD, neither have they considered the operation of His hands.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ISA.102/) ## 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:96 # text = וְהָיָ֨ה כִנּ֜וֹר וָנֶ֗בֶל תֹּ֧ף וְחָלִ֛יל וָיַ֖יִן מִשְׁתֵּיהֶ֑ם וְאֵ֨ת פֹּ֤עַל יְהוָה֙ לֹ֣א יַבִּ֔יטוּ וּמַעֲשֵׂ֥ה יָדָ֖יו לֹ֥א רָאֽוּ׃ # verse = ISA.5.12 1-2 וְהָיָ֨ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_5:12!1|MId=o230050120011|Strong=2050b 2 הָיָ֨ה הָיָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=it.will.be|Ref=ISA_5:12!1|MId=o230050120012|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:230050120021;230050120032;230050120041;230050120052;230050120062;|Type=qatal 3 כִנּ֜וֹר כִּנּוֹר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 nsubj _ Gloss=harp|Ref=ISA_5:12!2|MId=o230050120021|Strong=3658 4-5 וָנֶ֗בֶל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 וָ וְ CCONJ _ _ 5 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_5:12!3|MId=o230050120031|Strong=2050b 5 נֶ֗בֶל נֵבֶל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 conj _ Gloss=lyre|Ref=ISA_5:12!3|MId=o230050120032|Strong=5035a 6 תֹּ֧ף תֹּף NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 conj _ Gloss=tambourine|Ref=ISA_5:12!4|MId=o230050120041|Strong=8596 7-8 וְחָלִ֛יל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 8 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_5:12!5|MId=o230050120051|Strong=2050b 8 חָלִ֛יל חָלִיל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 conj _ Gloss=flute|Ref=ISA_5:12!5|MId=o230050120052|Strong=2485 9-10 וָיַ֖יִן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 וָ וְ CCONJ _ _ 10 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_5:12!6|MId=o230050120061|Strong=2050b 10 יַ֖יִן יַיִן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 conj _ Gloss=wine|Ref=ISA_5:12!6|MId=o230050120062|Strong=3196 11-12 מִשְׁתֵּיהֶ֑ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 מִשְׁתֵּי מִשְׁתֶּה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=feast|Ref=ISA_5:12!7|MId=o230050120071|Strong=4960 12 הֶ֑ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 11 nmod:poss _ Gloss=their|Ref=ISA_5:12!7|MId=o230050120072|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 13-14 וְאֵ֨ת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 18 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_5:12!8|MId=o230050120081|Strong=2050b 14 אֵ֨ת אֵת ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=ISA_5:12!8|MId=o230050120082|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 15 פֹּ֤עַל פֹּעַל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 18 obj _ Gloss=the.deed[s]|Ref=ISA_5:12!9|MId=o230050120091|Strong=6467 16 יְהוָה֙ יהוה PROPN _ _ 15 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=ISA_5:12!10|MId=o230050120101|Strong=3068 17 לֹ֣א לֹא ADV _ _ 18 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=ISA_5:12!11|MId=o230050120111|Strong=3808|Type=negative 18 יַבִּ֔יטוּ נָבַט VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=they.pay.attention.to|Ref=ISA_5:12!12|MId=o230050120121|Strong=5027|Frame=AA:230050110021;230050110061;A0:230050120091;|Type=yiqtol 19-20 וּמַעֲשֵׂ֥ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 24 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_5:12!13|MId=o230050120131|Strong=2050b 20 מַעֲשֵׂ֥ה מַעֲשֶׂה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 24 obj _ Gloss=the.work|Ref=ISA_5:12!13|MId=o230050120132|Strong=4639 21-22 יָדָ֖יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 יָדָ֖י יָד NOUN _ Number=Dual 20 compound:smixut _ Gloss=his.hands|Ref=ISA_5:12!14|MId=o230050120141|Strong=3027 22 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 21 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=ISA_5:12!14|MId=o230050120142|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 23 לֹ֥א לֹא ADV _ _ 24 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=ISA_5:12!15|MId=o230050120151|Strong=3808|Type=negative 24 רָאֽוּ רָאָה VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=they.see|Ref=ISA_5:12!16|MId=o230050120161|Strong=7200|Frame=A0:230050110021;230050110061;A1:230050120132;|Type=qatal|SpaceAfter=No 25 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 24 punct _ Ref=ISA_5:12!16 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: narrator - speech: narration - negation: yes | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | הָיָה *it will be* | qatal · qal | כִנּוֹר *harp* + נֶבֶל *lyre* + תֹּף *tambourine* + חָלִיל *flute* + יַיִן *wine* | | | | | **not** יַבִּיטוּ *they pay attention to* | yiqtol · hiphil | פֹּעַל *the deed\[s\]* | | | | | **not** רָאֽוּ *they see* | qatal · qal | | מַעֲשֵׂה *the work* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
