Jeremiah 11:17 in Hebrew with its dependency tree --- [Mova](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) · [this page in HTML](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/JER.11.17/) [home](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) / [corpora](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/) / [Tanakh](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/tanakh/) / [Nevi'im](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/) / [Jeremiah](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/JER/) / [chapter 11](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/JER/11/) / 11:17 # Jeremiah 11:17 יִרְמְיָהוּ **Who acts:** LORD, branches · **What happens:** plant, pronounce, wrought, provoke, offer · **To what, where:** thee, evil, house, Me This is Jeremiah 11:17 from Mova's open Bible corpus, the Tanakh in three languages (Nevi'im — the Prophets). 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 — LORD, branches — and what happens in the verse to thee, evil, house, Me, 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. וַיהוָ֤ה צְבָאוֹת֙ הַנּוֹטֵ֣עַ אוֹתָ֔ךְ דִּבֶּ֥ר עָלַ֖יִךְ רָעָ֑ה בִּ֠גְלַל רָעַ֨ת בֵּֽית־יִשְׂרָאֵ֜ל וּבֵ֣ית יְהוּדָ֗ה אֲשֶׁ֨ר עָשׂ֥וּ לָהֶ֛ם לְהַכְעִסֵ֖נִי לְקַטֵּ֥ר לַבָּֽעַל׃ס [For the LORD of hosts, that planted thee, hath pronounced evil against thee, because of the evil of the house of Israel and of the house of Judah, which they have wrought for themselves in provoking Me by offering unto Baal.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JER.342/) ## 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:295 # text = וַיהוָ֤ה צְבָאוֹת֙ הַנּוֹטֵ֣עַ אוֹתָ֔ךְ דִּבֶּ֥ר עָלַ֖יִךְ רָעָ֑ה בִּ֠גְלַל רָעַ֨ת בֵּֽית־יִשְׂרָאֵ֜ל וּבֵ֣ית יְהוּדָ֗ה אֲשֶׁ֨ר עָשׂ֥וּ לָהֶ֛ם לְהַכְעִסֵ֖נִי לְקַטֵּ֥ר לַבָּֽעַל׃ס # verse = JER.11.17 1-2 וַיהוָ֤ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 8 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_11:17!1|MId=o240110170011|Strong=2050b 2 יהוָ֤ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 8 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=JER_11:17!1|MId=o240110170012|Strong=3068 3 צְבָאוֹת֙ צָבָא NOUN _ Number=Plur 2 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.hosts|Ref=JER_11:17!2|MId=o240110170021|Strong=6635 4-5 הַנּוֹטֵ֣עַ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 הַ הַ SCONJ _ _ 5 mark _ Gloss=[who]|Ref=JER_11:17!3|MId=o240110170031|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 5 נּוֹטֵ֣עַ נָטַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 2 appos _ Gloss=planted|Ref=JER_11:17!3|MId=o240110170032|Strong=5193|Frame=A0:240110170012;A1:240110170042;|Type=participle_active 6-7 אוֹתָ֔ךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 אוֹת אֵת ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=|Ref=JER_11:17!4|MId=o240110170041|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 7 ָ֔ךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 5 obj _ Gloss=you|Ref=JER_11:17!4|MId=o240110170042|Strong=3509c|Type=pronominal 8 דִּבֶּ֥ר דָבַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.has.spoken|Ref=JER_11:17!5|MId=o240110170051|Strong=1696|Frame=A0:240110170012;A1:240110170071;|Type=qatal 9-10 עָלַ֖יִךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 עָלַ֖י עַל ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=JER_11:17!6|MId=o240110170061|Strong=5921 10 ִךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 8 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=JER_11:17!6|MId=o240110170062|Strong=3509c|Type=pronominal 11 רָעָ֑ה רָעָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 8 obj _ Gloss=evil|Ref=JER_11:17!7|MId=o240110170071|Strong=7451b 12-13 בִּ֠גְלַל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 בִּ֠ בְּ ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=JER_11:17!8|MId=o240110170081|Strong=0871a 13 גְלַל גָּלָל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 obl _ Gloss=account|Ref=JER_11:17!8|MId=o240110170082|Strong=1558 14 רָעַ֨ת רָעָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 13 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.the.evil|Ref=JER_11:17!9|MId=o240110170091|Strong=7451b 15 בֵּֽית־ בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 14 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.the.house|Ref=JER_11:17!10|MId=o240110170101|Strong=1004|SpaceAfter=No 16 יִשְׂרָאֵ֜ל יִשְׂרָאֵל PROPN _ _ 15 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Israel|Ref=JER_11:17!11|MId=o240110170111|Strong=3478 17-18 וּבֵ֣ית _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 18 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_11:17!12|MId=o240110170121|Strong=2050b 18 בֵ֣ית בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 15 conj _ Gloss=the.house|Ref=JER_11:17!12|MId=o240110170122|Strong=1004 19 יְהוּדָ֗ה יְהוּדָה PROPN _ _ 18 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Judah|Ref=JER_11:17!13|MId=o240110170131|Strong=3063 20 אֲשֶׁ֨ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 21 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=JER_11:17!14|MId=o240110170141|Strong=0834|Type=relative 21 עָשׂ֥וּ עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 14 acl:relcl _ Gloss=they.have.done|Ref=JER_11:17!15|MId=o240110170151|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:240110170101;240110170122;A1:240110170091;|Type=qatal 22-23 לָהֶ֛ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 ל לְ ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=(for|Ref=JER_11:17!16|MId=o240110170161|Strong=3807a 23 ָהֶ֛ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 21 obl _ Gloss=themselves|Ref=JER_11:17!16|MId=o240110170162|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 24-26 לְהַכְעִסֵ֖נִי _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 25 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JER_11:17!17|MId=o240110170171|Strong=3807a 25 הַכְעִס כָּעַס VERB _ HebBinyan=HIPHIL 21 advcl _ Gloss=provoke|Ref=JER_11:17!17|MId=o240110170172|Strong=3707|Frame=AA:240110170101;240110170122;A0:240110170173;|Type=infinitive_construct 26 ֵ֖נִי הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 25 obj _ Gloss=me.to.anger|Ref=JER_11:17!17|MId=o240110170173|Strong=5204a|Type=pronominal 27-28 לְקַטֵּ֥ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 28 case _ Gloss=by|Ref=JER_11:17!18|MId=o240110170181|Strong=3807a 28 קַטֵּ֥ר קָטַר VERB _ HebBinyan=PIEL 25 advcl _ Gloss=making.smoke|Ref=JER_11:17!18|MId=o240110170182|Strong=6999|Frame=A0:240110170101;240110170122;|Type=infinitive_construct 29-31 לַבָּֽעַל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 29 לַ לְ ADP _ _ 31 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JER_11:17!19|MId=o240110170191|Strong=3807a 30 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 31 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=JER_11:17!19|MId=o240110170191ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 31 בָּֽעַל בַּעַל PROPN _ _ 28 obl _ Gloss=Baal|Ref=JER_11:17!19|MId=o240110170192|Strong=1168 32 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 31 punct _ Ref=JER_11:17!19|SpaceAfter=No 33 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 31 punct _ Ref=JER_11:17!19 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
