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 — brethren — and what happens in the verse to brethren, fair words, 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. כִּ֧י גַם־אַחֶ֣יךָ וּבֵית־אָבִ֗יךָ גַּם־הֵ֙מָּה֙ בָּ֣גְדוּ בָ֔ךְ גַּם־הֵ֛מָּה קָרְא֥וּ אַחֲרֶ֖יךָ מָלֵ֑א אַל־תַּאֲמֵ֣ן בָּ֔ם כִּֽי־יְדַבְּר֥וּ אֵלֶ֖יךָ טוֹבֽוֹת׃ס [For even thy brethren, and the house of thy father, even they have dealt treacherously with thee, even they have cried aloud after thee; believe them not, though they speak fair words unto thee.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JER.357/) ## 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:307 # text = כִּ֧י גַם־אַחֶ֣יךָ וּבֵית־אָבִ֗יךָ גַּם־הֵ֙מָּה֙ בָּ֣גְדוּ בָ֔ךְ גַּם־הֵ֛מָּה קָרְא֥וּ אַחֲרֶ֖יךָ מָלֵ֑א אַל־תַּאֲמֵ֣ן בָּ֔ם כִּֽי־יְדַבְּר֥וּ אֵלֶ֖יךָ טוֹבֽוֹת׃ס # verse = JER.12.6 1 כִּ֧י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 16 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=JER_12:6!1|MId=o240120060011|Strong=3588 2 גַם־ גַּם ADV _ _ 3 advmod _ Gloss=also|Ref=JER_12:6!2|MId=o240120060021|Strong=1571|SpaceAfter=No 3-4 אַחֶ֣יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 אַחֶ֣י אָח NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 16 dislocated _ Gloss=brothers|Ref=JER_12:6!3|MId=o240120060031|Strong=0251 4 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 3 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=JER_12:6!3|MId=o240120060032|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 5-6 וּבֵית־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 6 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_12:6!4|MId=o240120060041|Strong=2050b 6 בֵית־ בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 conj _ Gloss=the.house|Ref=JER_12:6!4|MId=o240120060042|Strong=1004 7-8 אָבִ֗יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 אָבִ֗י אָב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 compound:smixut _ Gloss=your.father|Ref=JER_12:6!5|MId=o240120060051|Strong=0001 8 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 7 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=JER_12:6!5|MId=o240120060052|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 9 גַּם־ גַּם ADV _ _ 10 advmod _ Gloss=also|Ref=JER_12:6!6|MId=o240120060061|Strong=1571|Type=affirmation|SpaceAfter=No 10 הֵ֙מָּה֙ הֵמָּה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 11 nsubj _ Gloss=they|Ref=JER_12:6!7|MId=o240120060071|Strong=1992|Type=personal 11 בָּ֣גְדוּ בָּגַד VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 16 parataxis _ Gloss=they.have.dealt.treacherously|Ref=JER_12:6!8|MId=o240120060081|Strong=0898|Frame=A0:240120060071;|Type=qatal 12-13 בָ֔ךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 ב בְּ ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=JER_12:6!9|MId=o240120060091|Strong=0871a 13 ָ֔ךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 11 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=JER_12:6!9|MId=o240120060092|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 14 גַּם־ גַּם ADV _ _ 15 advmod _ Gloss=also|Ref=JER_12:6!10|MId=o240120060101|Strong=1571|Type=affirmation|SpaceAfter=No 15 הֵ֛מָּה הֵמָּה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 16 nsubj _ Gloss=they|Ref=JER_12:6!11|MId=o240120060111|Strong=1992|Type=personal 16 קָרְא֥וּ קָרָא VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.have.called.out|Ref=JER_12:6!12|MId=o240120060121|Strong=7121|Frame=A0:240120060111;|Type=qatal 17-18 אַחֲרֶ֖יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 אַחֲרֶ֖י אַחַר ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=after|Ref=JER_12:6!13|MId=o240120060131|Strong=0310 18 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 16 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=JER_12:6!13|MId=o240120060132|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 19 מָלֵ֑א מָלֵא ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 16 advmod _ Gloss=full|Ref=JER_12:6!14|MId=o240120060141|Strong=4392|Type=adjective 20 אַל־ אַל ADV _ _ 21 advmod _ Gloss=do.not|Ref=JER_12:6!15|MId=o240120060151|Strong=0408|Type=negative|SpaceAfter=No 21 תַּאֲמֵ֣ן אָמַן VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=2 16 ccomp _ Gloss=trust|Ref=JER_12:6!16|MId=o240120060161|Strong=0539|Frame=A0:240110010051;|Type=jussive 22-23 בָּ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 בּ בְּ ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=JER_12:6!17|MId=o240120060171|Strong=0871a 23 ָ֔ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 21 obl _ Gloss=them|Ref=JER_12:6!17|MId=o240120060172|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 24 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 25 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=JER_12:6!18|MId=o240120060181|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 25 יְדַבְּר֥וּ דָבַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Plur|Person=3 21 advcl _ Gloss=they.speak|Ref=JER_12:6!19|MId=o240120060191|Strong=1696|Frame=A0:240120060031;240120060042;A1:240120060211;|Type=yiqtol 26-27 אֵלֶ֖יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 אֵלֶ֖י אֶל ADP _ _ 27 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JER_12:6!20|MId=o240120060201|Strong=0413 27 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 25 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=JER_12:6!20|MId=o240120060202|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 28 טוֹבֽוֹת טוֹבָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 25 obj _ Gloss=good.things|Ref=JER_12:6!21|MId=o240120060211|Strong=2896b|Type=adjective|SpaceAfter=No 29 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 28 punct _ Ref=JER_12:6!21|SpaceAfter=No 30 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 28 punct _ Ref=JER_12:6!21 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
