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 — word — and what happens in the verse to LORD, 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 52 chapters of Jeremiah on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. אֲשֶׁ֨ר הָיָ֤ה דְבַר־יְהוָה֙ אֵלָ֔יו בִּימֵ֛י יֹאשִׁיָּ֥הוּ בֶן־אָמ֖וֹן מֶ֣לֶךְ יְהוּדָ֑ה בִּשְׁלֹשׁ־עֶשְׂרֵ֥ה שָׁנָ֖ה לְמָלְכֽוֹ׃ [to whom the word of the LORD came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JER.1/) ## 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:JER:1 # text = אֲשֶׁ֨ר הָיָ֤ה דְבַר־יְהוָה֙ אֵלָ֔יו בִּימֵ֛י יֹאשִׁיָּ֥הוּ בֶן־אָמ֖וֹן מֶ֣לֶךְ יְהוּדָ֑ה בִּשְׁלֹשׁ־עֶשְׂרֵ֥ה שָׁנָ֖ה לְמָלְכֽוֹ׃ # verse = JER.1.2 1 אֲשֶׁ֨ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 6 mark _ Gloss=whom|Ref=JER_1:2!1|MId=o240010020011|Strong=0834|Type=relative 2 הָיָ֤ה הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 6 cop _ Gloss=it.came|Ref=JER_1:2!2|MId=o240010020021|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:240010020031;|Type=qatal 3 דְבַר־ דָּבָר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 nsubj _ Gloss=the.word|Ref=JER_1:2!3|MId=o240010020031|Strong=1697|SpaceAfter=No 4 יְהוָה֙ יהוה PROPN _ _ 3 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=JER_1:2!4|MId=o240010020041|Strong=3068 5-6 אֵלָ֔יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 אֵלָ֔י אֶל ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JER_1:2!5|MId=o240010020051|Strong=0413 6 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 0 root _ Gloss=him|Ref=JER_1:2!5|MId=o240010020052|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 7-8 בִּימֵ֛י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 בִּ בְּ ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=JER_1:2!6|MId=o240010020061|Strong=0871a 8 ימֵ֛י יוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 6 obl _ Gloss=the.days|Ref=JER_1:2!6|MId=o240010020062|Strong=3117 9 יֹאשִׁיָּ֥הוּ יֹאשִׁיָּהוּ PROPN _ _ 8 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Josiah|Ref=JER_1:2!7|MId=o240010020071|Strong=2977a 10 בֶן־ בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 appos _ Gloss=the.son|Ref=JER_1:2!8|MId=o240010020081|Strong=1121|SpaceAfter=No 11 אָמ֖וֹן אָמוֹן PROPN _ _ 10 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Amon|Ref=JER_1:2!9|MId=o240010020091|Strong=0526 12 מֶ֣לֶךְ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 appos _ Gloss=the.king|Ref=JER_1:2!10|MId=o240010020101|Strong=4428 13 יְהוּדָ֑ה יְהוּדָה PROPN _ _ 12 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Judah|Ref=JER_1:2!11|MId=o240010020111|Strong=3063 14-15 בִּשְׁלֹשׁ־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 בִּ בְּ ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=JER_1:2!12|MId=o240010020121|Strong=0871a 15 שְׁלֹשׁ־ שָׁלֹשׁ NUM _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 17 nummod _ Gloss=thir-|Ref=JER_1:2!12|MId=o240010020122|Strong=7969|Type=cardinal_number 16 עֶשְׂרֵ֥ה עֶשְׂרֵה NUM _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 15 flat _ Gloss=teen|Ref=JER_1:2!13|MId=o240010020131|Strong=6240|Type=cardinal_number 17 שָׁנָ֖ה שָׁנָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 6 obl _ Gloss=year|Ref=JER_1:2!14|MId=o240010020141|Strong=8141 18-20 לְמָלְכֽוֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=of|Ref=JER_1:2!15|MId=o240010020151|Strong=3807a 19 מָלְכ מָלַךְ VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 17 nmod _ Gloss=reigning|Ref=JER_1:2!15|MId=o240010020152|Strong=4427|Frame=A0:240010020153;|Type=infinitive_construct 20 ֽוֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 19 nsubj _ Gloss=his|Ref=JER_1:2!15|MId=o240010020153|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 21 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 20 punct _ Ref=JER_1:2!15 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: narrator - speech: narration - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | הָיָה *it came* | qatal · qal | דְבַר־ *the word* | | | | | מָלְכ *reigning* | infinitive construct · qal | ֽוֹ *his* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
