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 — thou, LORD, man — and what happens in the verse to words, covenant, 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. וְאָמַרְתָּ֣ אֲלֵיהֶ֔ם כֹּֽה־אָמַ֥ר יְהוָ֖ה אֱלֹהֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל אָר֣וּר הָאִ֔ישׁ אֲשֶׁר֙ לֹ֣א יִשְׁמַ֔ע אֶת־דִּבְרֵ֖י הַבְּרִ֥ית הַזֹּֽאת׃ [and say thou unto them: Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel: Cursed be the man that heareth not the words of this covenant,](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JER.327/) ## 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:281 # text = וְאָמַרְתָּ֣ אֲלֵיהֶ֔ם כֹּֽה־אָמַ֥ר יְהוָ֖ה אֱלֹהֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל אָר֣וּר הָאִ֔ישׁ אֲשֶׁר֙ לֹ֣א יִשְׁמַ֔ע אֶת־דִּבְרֵ֖י הַבְּרִ֥ית הַזֹּֽאת׃ # verse = JER.11.3 1-2 וְאָמַרְתָּ֣ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_11:3!1|MId=o240110030011|Strong=2050b 2 אָמַרְתָּ֣ אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=you.will.say|Ref=JER_11:3!1|MId=o240110030012|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:240110010051;|Type=weqatal 3-4 אֲלֵיהֶ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 אֲלֵי אֶל ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JER_11:3!2|MId=o240110030021|Strong=0413 4 הֶ֔ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 2 obl _ Gloss=them|Ref=JER_11:3!2|MId=o240110030022|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 5 כֹּֽה־ כֹּה ADV _ _ 6 advmod _ Gloss=thus|Ref=JER_11:3!3|MId=o240110030031|Strong=3541|SpaceAfter=No 6 אָמַ֥ר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 ccomp _ Gloss=he.says|Ref=JER_11:3!4|MId=o240110030041|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:240110030051;|Type=qatal 7 יְהוָ֖ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 6 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=JER_11:3!5|MId=o240110030051|Strong=3068 8 אֱלֹהֵ֣י אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 7 appos _ Gloss=the.God|Ref=JER_11:3!6|MId=o240110030061|Strong=0430 9 יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל יִשְׂרָאֵל PROPN _ _ 8 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Israel|Ref=JER_11:3!7|MId=o240110030071|Strong=3478 10 אָר֣וּר אָרַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 6 ccomp _ Gloss=[is].cursed|Ref=JER_11:3!8|MId=o240110030081|Strong=0779|Frame=A1:240110030092;|Type=participle_passive 11-12 הָאִ֔ישׁ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 12 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JER_11:3!9|MId=o240110030091|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 12 אִ֔ישׁ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 10 nsubj _ Gloss=person|Ref=JER_11:3!9|MId=o240110030092|Strong=0376 13 אֲשֶׁר֙ אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 15 mark _ Gloss=who|Ref=JER_11:3!10|MId=o240110030101|Strong=0834|Type=relative 14 לֹ֣א לֹא ADV _ _ 15 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=JER_11:3!11|MId=o240110030111|Strong=3808|Type=negative 15 יִשְׁמַ֔ע שָׁמַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 12 acl:relcl _ Gloss=he.will.hear|Ref=JER_11:3!12|MId=o240110030121|Strong=8085|Frame=A0:240110030092;A1:240110030141;|Type=yiqtol 16 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=JER_11:3!13|MId=o240110030131|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 17 דִּבְרֵ֖י דָּבָר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 15 obj _ Gloss=the.words|Ref=JER_11:3!14|MId=o240110030141|Strong=1697 18-19 הַבְּרִ֥ית _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 19 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=JER_11:3!15|MId=o240110030151|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 19 בְּרִ֥ית בְּרִית NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 17 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.covenant|Ref=JER_11:3!15|MId=o240110030152|Strong=1285 20-21 הַזֹּֽאת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 21 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=JER_11:3!16|MId=o240110030161|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 21 זֹּֽאת זֹאת DET _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|PronType=Dem 19 det _ Gloss=this|Ref=JER_11:3!16|MId=o240110030162|Strong=2063|Type=demonstrative 22 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 21 punct _ Ref=JER_11:3!16 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: yes - the frame alone: decl · assert · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | אָמַרְתָּ *you will say* | weqatal · qal | | | | | | אָמַר *he says* | qatal · qal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | | | | אָרוּר *\[is\] cursed* | participle passive · qal | | אִישׁ *person* | | | | **not** יִשְׁמַע *he will hear* | yiqtol · qal | אִישׁ *person* | דִּבְרֵי *the words* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
