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 — this — and what happens in the verse to Edom, apparel, greatness, victory, 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. מִי־זֶ֣ה ׀ בָּ֣א מֵאֱד֗וֹם חֲמ֤וּץ בְּגָדִים֙ מִבָּצְרָ֔ה זֶ֚ה הָד֣וּר בִּלְבוּשׁ֔וֹ צֹעֶ֖ה בְּרֹ֣ב כֹּח֑וֹ אֲנִ֛י מְדַבֵּ֥ר בִּצְדָקָ֖ה רַ֥ב לְהוֹשִֽׁיעַ׃ ['Who is this that cometh from Edom, with crimsoned garments from Bozrah?](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ISA.1341/) [This that is glorious in his apparel, stately in the greatness of his strength?' — 'I that speak in victory, mighty to save.' —](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ISA.1342/) ## 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:1212 # text = מִי־זֶ֣ה ׀ בָּ֣א מֵאֱד֗וֹם חֲמ֤וּץ בְּגָדִים֙ מִבָּצְרָ֔ה זֶ֚ה הָד֣וּר בִּלְבוּשׁ֔וֹ צֹעֶ֖ה בְּרֹ֣ב כֹּח֑וֹ אֲנִ֛י מְדַבֵּ֥ר בִּצְדָקָ֖ה רַ֥ב לְהוֹשִֽׁיעַ׃ # verse = ISA.63.1 1 מִי־ מִי PRON _ PronType=Int 0 root _ Gloss=who?|Ref=ISA_63:1!1|MId=o230630010011|Strong=4310|Type=interrogative|SpaceAfter=No 2 זֶ֣ה זֶה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|PronType=Dem 1 nsubj _ Gloss=this|Ref=ISA_63:1!2|MId=o230630010021|Strong=2088|Type=demonstrative 3 ׀ ׀ PUNCT _ _ 2 punct _ Ref=ISA_63:1!2 4 בָּ֣א בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 2 appos _ Gloss=[is].coming|Ref=ISA_63:1!3|MId=o230630010031|Strong=0935|Frame=A0:230630010021;|Type=participle_active 5-6 מֵאֱד֗וֹם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 מֵ מִן ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=ISA_63:1!4|MId=o230630010041|Strong=4480 6 אֱד֗וֹם אֱדוֹם PROPN _ _ 4 obl _ Gloss=Edom|Ref=ISA_63:1!4|MId=o230630010042|Strong=0123 7 חֲמ֤וּץ חָמוּץ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 4 parataxis _ Gloss=red|Ref=ISA_63:1!5|MId=o230630010051|Strong=2556c|Type=participle_passive 8 בְּגָדִים֙ בֶּגֶד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 7 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.garments|Ref=ISA_63:1!6|MId=o230630010061|Strong=0899 9-10 מִבָּצְרָ֔ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=ISA_63:1!7|MId=o230630010071|Strong=4480 10 בָּצְרָ֔ה בׇּצְרָה PROPN _ _ 7 obl _ Gloss=Bozrah|Ref=ISA_63:1!7|MId=o230630010072|Strong=1224 11 זֶ֚ה זֶה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|PronType=Dem 2 appos _ Gloss=this.one|Ref=ISA_63:1!8|MId=o230630010081|Strong=2088|Type=demonstrative 12 הָד֣וּר הָדַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 11 appos _ Gloss=[is].honored|Ref=ISA_63:1!9|MId=o230630010091|Strong=1921|Frame=A0:230630010081;|Type=participle_passive 13-15 בִּלְבוּשׁ֔וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 בִּ בְּ ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=ISA_63:1!10|MId=o230630010101|Strong=0871a 14 לְבוּשׁ לְבוּשׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 12 obl _ Gloss=clothing|Ref=ISA_63:1!10|MId=o230630010102|Strong=3830 15 ֔וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 14 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=ISA_63:1!10|MId=o230630010103|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 16 צֹעֶ֖ה צָעָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 12 parataxis _ Gloss=[he.is].bending|Ref=ISA_63:1!11|MId=o230630010111|Strong=6808|Frame=A0:230630010081;|Type=participle_active 17-18 בְּרֹ֣ב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=ISA_63:1!12|MId=o230630010121|Strong=0871a 18 רֹ֣ב רֹב NOUN _ Number=Sing 16 obl _ Gloss=the.greatness|Ref=ISA_63:1!12|MId=o230630010122|Strong=7230 19-20 כֹּח֑וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 כֹּח כֹּחַ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 18 compound:smixut _ Gloss=his.strength|Ref=ISA_63:1!13|MId=o230630010131|Strong=3581 20 ֑וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 19 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=ISA_63:1!13|MId=o230630010132|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 21 אֲנִ֛י אֲנִי PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 1 parataxis _ Gloss=I|Ref=ISA_63:1!14|MId=o230630010141|Strong=0589|Type=personal 22 מְדַבֵּ֥ר דָבַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing 21 appos _ Gloss=[I.am].speaking|Ref=ISA_63:1!15|MId=o230630010151|Strong=1696|Frame=A0:230620110021;|Type=participle_active 23-24 בִּצְדָקָ֖ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 בִּ בְּ ADP _ _ 24 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=ISA_63:1!16|MId=o230630010161|Strong=0871a 24 צְדָקָ֖ה צְדָקָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 22 obl _ Gloss=righteousness|Ref=ISA_63:1!16|MId=o230630010162|Strong=6666 25 רַ֥ב רַב ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 22 parataxis _ Gloss=great|Ref=ISA_63:1!17|MId=o230630010171|Strong=7227|Type=adjective 26-27 לְהוֹשִֽׁיעַ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 27 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=ISA_63:1!18|MId=o230630010181|Strong=3807a 27 הוֹשִֽׁיעַ יָשַׁע VERB _ HebBinyan=HIPHIL 25 advcl _ Gloss=save|Ref=ISA_63:1!18|MId=o230630010182|Strong=3467|Frame=A0:230620110021;|Type=infinitive_construct 28 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 27 punct _ Ref=ISA_63:1!18 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: wh-question - act: ask - 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | בָּא *\[is\] coming* | participle active · qal | זֶה *this* | | | | | הָדוּר *\[is\] honored* | participle passive · qal | זֶה *this one* | | | | | צֹעֶה *\[he is\] bending* | participle active · qal | זֶה *this one* | | | | | מְדַבֵּר *\[I am\] speaking* | participle active · piel | | | | | | הוֹשִֽׁיעַ *save* | infinitive construct · hiphil | | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
