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 — you, heart, ye — and what happens in the verse to ye, righteousness, law, taunt, revilings, men, 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. שִׁמְע֤וּ אֵלַי֙ יֹ֣דְעֵי צֶ֔דֶק עַ֖ם תּוֹרָתִ֣י בְלִבָּ֑ם אַל־תִּֽירְאוּ֙ חֶרְפַּ֣ת אֱנ֔וֹשׁ וּמִגִּדֻּפֹתָ֖ם אַל־תֵּחָֽתּוּ׃ [Hearken unto Me, ye that know righteousness, the people in whose heart is My law; fear ye not the taunt of men, neither be ye dismayed at their revilings.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ISA.1137/) ## 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:1025 # text = שִׁמְע֤וּ אֵלַי֙ יֹ֣דְעֵי צֶ֔דֶק עַ֖ם תּוֹרָתִ֣י בְלִבָּ֑ם אַל־תִּֽירְאוּ֙ חֶרְפַּ֣ת אֱנ֔וֹשׁ וּמִגִּדֻּפֹתָ֖ם אַל־תֵּחָֽתּוּ׃ # verse = ISA.51.7 1 שִׁמְע֤וּ שָׁמַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=listen|Ref=ISA_51:7!1|MId=o230510070011|Strong=8085|Frame=A0:230510070031;|Type=imperative 2-3 אֵלַי֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 2 אֵל אֶל ADP _ _ 3 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=ISA_51:7!2|MId=o230510070021|Strong=0413 3 ַי֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 1 obl _ Gloss=me|Ref=ISA_51:7!2|MId=o230510070022|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 4 יֹ֣דְעֵי יָדַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur 1 parataxis _ Gloss=O.[you.who].know|Ref=ISA_51:7!3|MId=o230510070031|Strong=3045|Frame=A0:230510070051;A1:230510070041;|Type=participle_active 5 צֶ֔דֶק צֶדֶק NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 4 compound:smixut _ Gloss=(of).righteousness|Ref=ISA_51:7!4|MId=o230510070041|Strong=6664 6 עַ֖ם עַם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 4 appos _ Gloss=a.people|Ref=ISA_51:7!5|MId=o230510070051|Strong=5971 7-8 תּוֹרָתִ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 תּוֹרָת תּוֹרָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 10 nsubj _ Gloss=law|Ref=ISA_51:7!6|MId=o230510070061|Strong=8451 8 ִ֣י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 7 nmod:poss _ Gloss=[which].my|Ref=ISA_51:7!6|MId=o230510070062|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 9-11 בְלִבָּ֑ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 בְ בְּ ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=[is].in|Ref=ISA_51:7!7|MId=o230510070071|Strong=0871a 10 לִבּ לֵב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 acl _ Gloss=heart|Ref=ISA_51:7!7|MId=o230510070072|Strong=3820 11 ָ֑ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 10 nmod:poss _ Gloss=their|Ref=ISA_51:7!7|MId=o230510070073|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 12 אַל־ אַל ADV _ _ 13 advmod _ Gloss=do.not|Ref=ISA_51:7!8|MId=o230510070081|Strong=0408|Type=negative|SpaceAfter=No 13 תִּֽירְאוּ֙ יָרֵא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 1 parataxis _ Gloss=fear|Ref=ISA_51:7!9|MId=o230510070091|Strong=3372|Frame=A0:230510070031;A1:230510070101;|Type=jussive 14 חֶרְפַּ֣ת חֶרְפָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 13 obj _ Gloss=[the].reproach|Ref=ISA_51:7!10|MId=o230510070101|Strong=2781 15 אֱנ֔וֹשׁ אֱנוֹשׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 14 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.humankind|Ref=ISA_51:7!11|MId=o230510070111|Strong=0582 16-19 וּמִגִּדֻּפֹתָ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 21 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_51:7!12|MId=o230510070121|Strong=2050b 17 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=ISA_51:7!12|MId=o230510070122|Strong=4480 18 גִּדֻּפֹת גִּדּוּפָה NOUN _ Number=Plur 21 obl _ Gloss=their.reviling|Ref=ISA_51:7!12|MId=o230510070123|Strong=1421 19 ָ֖ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 18 nmod:poss _ Gloss=words|Ref=ISA_51:7!12|MId=o230510070124|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 20 אַל־ אַל ADV _ _ 21 advmod _ Gloss=do.not|Ref=ISA_51:7!13|MId=o230510070131|Strong=0408|Type=negative|SpaceAfter=No 21 תֵּחָֽתּוּ חָתַת VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 1 conj _ Gloss=be.dismayed|Ref=ISA_51:7!14|MId=o230510070141|Strong=2865|Frame=A0:230510070031;|Type=jussive|SpaceAfter=No 22 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 21 punct _ Ref=ISA_51:7!14 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: command - act: request - 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | שִׁמְעוּ *listen* | imperative · qal | יֹדְעֵי *O \[you who\] know* | | | | | יֹדְעֵי *O \[you who\] know* | participle active · qal | עַם *a people* | צֶדֶק *(of) righteousness* | | | | **not** תִּֽירְאוּ *fear* | jussive · qal | יֹדְעֵי *O \[you who\] know* | חֶרְפַּת *\[the\] reproach* | | | | **not** תֵּחָֽתּוּ *be dismayed* | jussive · niphal | יֹדְעֵי *O \[you who\] know* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
