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 — GOD — and what happens in the verse to GOD, earth, former troubles, troubles, eyes, 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. אֲשֶׁ֨ר הַמִּתְבָּרֵ֜ךְ בָּאָ֗רֶץ יִתְבָּרֵךְ֙ בֵּאלֹהֵ֣י אָמֵ֔ן וְהַנִּשְׁבָּ֣ע בָּאָ֔רֶץ יִשָּׁבַ֖ע בֵּאלֹהֵ֣י אָמֵ֑ן כִּ֣י נִשְׁכְּח֗וּ הַצָּרוֹת֙ הָרִ֣אשֹׁנ֔וֹת וְכִ֥י נִסְתְּר֖וּ מֵעֵינָֽי׃ [So that he who blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself by the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from Mine eyes.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ISA.1392/) ## 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:1257 # text = אֲשֶׁ֨ר הַמִּתְבָּרֵ֜ךְ בָּאָ֗רֶץ יִתְבָּרֵךְ֙ בֵּאלֹהֵ֣י אָמֵ֔ן וְהַנִּשְׁבָּ֣ע בָּאָ֔רֶץ יִשָּׁבַ֖ע בֵּאלֹהֵ֣י אָמֵ֑ן כִּ֣י נִשְׁכְּח֗וּ הַצָּרוֹת֙ הָרִ֣אשֹׁנ֔וֹת וְכִ֥י נִסְתְּר֖וּ מֵעֵינָֽי׃ # verse = ISA.65.16 1 אֲשֶׁ֨ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 7 mark _ Gloss=that|Ref=ISA_65:16!1|MId=o230650160011|Strong=0834|Type=relative 2-3 הַמִּתְבָּרֵ֜ךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 2 הַ הַ SCONJ _ _ 3 mark _ Gloss=the.[one|Ref=ISA_65:16!2|MId=o230650160021|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 3 מִּתְבָּרֵ֜ךְ בָּרַךְ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HITHPAEL|Number=Sing 7 nsubj _ Gloss=who].blesses.himself|Ref=ISA_65:16!2|MId=o230650160022|Strong=1288|Type=participle_active 4-6 בָּאָ֗רֶץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 בָּ בְּ ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=ISA_65:16!3|MId=o230650160031|Strong=0871a 5 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 6 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=ISA_65:16!3|MId=o230650160031ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 6 אָ֗רֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 3 obl _ Gloss=land|Ref=ISA_65:16!3|MId=o230650160032|Strong=0776 7 יִתְבָּרֵךְ֙ בָּרַךְ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HITHPAEL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.will.bless.himself|Ref=ISA_65:16!4|MId=o230650160041|Strong=1288|Frame=A0:230650160022;|Type=yiqtol 8-9 בֵּאלֹהֵ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 בֵּ בְּ ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=by.[the]|Ref=ISA_65:16!5|MId=o230650160051|Strong=0871a 9 אלֹהֵ֣י אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 7 obl _ Gloss=God|Ref=ISA_65:16!5|MId=o230650160052|Strong=0430 10 אָמֵ֔ן אָמֵן NOUN _ _ 9 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.surely|Ref=ISA_65:16!6|MId=o230650160061|Strong=0543 11-13 וְהַנִּשְׁבָּ֣ע _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 17 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_65:16!7|MId=o230650160071|Strong=2050b 12 הַ הַ SCONJ _ _ 13 mark _ Gloss=the.[one|Ref=ISA_65:16!7|MId=o230650160072|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 13 נִּשְׁבָּ֣ע שָׁבַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing 17 nsubj _ Gloss=who].swears.an.oath|Ref=ISA_65:16!7|MId=o230650160073|Strong=7650|Type=participle_active 14-16 בָּאָ֔רֶץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 בָּ בְּ ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=ISA_65:16!8|MId=o230650160081|Strong=0871a 15 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 16 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=ISA_65:16!8|MId=o230650160081ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 16 אָ֔רֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 13 obl _ Gloss=land|Ref=ISA_65:16!8|MId=o230650160082|Strong=0776 17 יִשָּׁבַ֖ע שָׁבַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 7 conj _ Gloss=he.will.swear.an.oath|Ref=ISA_65:16!9|MId=o230650160091|Strong=7650|Frame=A0:230650160073;|Type=yiqtol 18-19 בֵּאלֹהֵ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 בֵּ בְּ ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=by.[the]|Ref=ISA_65:16!10|MId=o230650160101|Strong=0871a 19 אלֹהֵ֣י אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 17 obl _ Gloss=God|Ref=ISA_65:16!10|MId=o230650160102|Strong=0430 20 אָמֵ֑ן אָמֵן NOUN _ _ 19 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.surely|Ref=ISA_65:16!11|MId=o230650160111|Strong=0543 21 כִּ֣י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 22 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=ISA_65:16!12|MId=o230650160121|Strong=3588 22 נִשְׁכְּח֗וּ שָׁכַח VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 7 parataxis _ Gloss=they.will.be.forgotten|Ref=ISA_65:16!13|MId=o230650160131|Strong=7911|Frame=A1:230650160142;|Type=qatal 23-24 הַצָּרוֹת֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 24 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=ISA_65:16!14|MId=o230650160141|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 24 צָּרוֹת֙ צָרָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 22 nsubj _ Gloss=troubles|Ref=ISA_65:16!14|MId=o230650160142|Strong=6869 25-26 הָרִ֣אשֹׁנ֔וֹת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 26 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=ISA_65:16!15|MId=o230650160151|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 26 רִ֣אשֹׁנ֔וֹת רִאשׁוֹן ADJ _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 24 amod _ Gloss=former|Ref=ISA_65:16!15|MId=o230650160152|Strong=7223|Type=adjective 27-28 וְכִ֥י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 29 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_65:16!16|MId=o230650160161|Strong=2050b 28 כִ֥י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 29 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=ISA_65:16!16|MId=o230650160162|Strong=3588 29 נִסְתְּר֖וּ סָתַר VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 22 conj _ Gloss=they.will.be.hidden|Ref=ISA_65:16!17|MId=o230650160171|Strong=5641|Frame=A1:230650160142;|Type=qatal 30-32 מֵעֵינָֽי _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 30 מֵ מִן ADP _ _ 31 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=ISA_65:16!18|MId=o230650160181|Strong=4480 31 עֵינ עַיִן NOUN _ Number=Dual 29 obl _ Gloss=eyes|Ref=ISA_65:16!18|MId=o230650160182|Strong=5869 32 ָֽי הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 31 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=ISA_65:16!18|MId=o230650160183|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 33 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 32 punct _ Ref=ISA_65:16!18 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
