Jeremiah 16:19 --- [Mova](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) · [this page in HTML](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/JER.16.19/) [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 16](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/JER/16/) / 16:19 # Jeremiah 16:19 יִרְמְיָהוּ **Who acts:** nations, fathers, profit · **What happens:** come, say, inherit, be · **To what, where:** ends, nought · **Speech:** someone speaks in this verse This is Jeremiah 16:19 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 — nations, fathers, profit — and what happens in the verse to ends, nought, 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. יְהוָ֞ה עֻזִּ֧י וּמָעֻזִּ֛י וּמְנוּסִ֖י בְּי֣וֹם צָרָ֑ה אֵלֶ֗יךָ גּוֹיִ֤ם יָבֹ֙אוּ֙ מֵֽאַפְסֵי־אָ֔רֶץ וְיֹאמְר֗וּ אַךְ־שֶׁ֙קֶר֙ נָחֲל֣וּ אֲבוֹתֵ֔ינוּ הֶ֖בֶל וְאֵֽין־בָּ֥ם מוֹעִֽיל׃ [O LORD, my strength, and my stronghold, and my refuge, in the day of affliction, unto Thee shall the nations come from the ends of the earth, and shall say: 'Our fathers have inherited nought but lies, vanity and things wherein there is no profit.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JER.475/) ## 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:407 # text = יְהוָ֞ה עֻזִּ֧י וּמָעֻזִּ֛י וּמְנוּסִ֖י בְּי֣וֹם צָרָ֑ה אֵלֶ֗יךָ גּוֹיִ֤ם יָבֹ֙אוּ֙ מֵֽאַפְסֵי־אָ֔רֶץ וְיֹאמְר֗וּ אַךְ־שֶׁ֙קֶר֙ נָחֲל֣וּ אֲבוֹתֵ֔ינוּ הֶ֖בֶל וְאֵֽין־בָּ֥ם מוֹעִֽיל׃ # verse = JER.16.19 1 יְהוָ֞ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 16 dislocated _ Gloss=O.Yahweh|Ref=JER_16:19!1|MId=o240160190011|Strong=3068 2-3 עֻזִּ֧י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 2 עֻזּ עֹז NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 1 appos _ Gloss=strength|Ref=JER_16:19!2|MId=o240160190021|Strong=5797 3 ִ֧י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 2 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=JER_16:19!2|MId=o240160190022|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 4-6 וּמָעֻזִּ֛י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 5 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_16:19!3|MId=o240160190031|Strong=2050b 5 מָעֻזּ מָעוֹז NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 conj _ Gloss=stronghold|Ref=JER_16:19!3|MId=o240160190032|Strong=4581 6 ִ֛י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 5 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=JER_16:19!3|MId=o240160190033|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 7-9 וּמְנוּסִ֖י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 8 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_16:19!4|MId=o240160190041|Strong=2050b 8 מְנוּס מָנוֹס NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 conj _ Gloss=my.place|Ref=JER_16:19!4|MId=o240160190042|Strong=4498 9 ִ֖י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 8 nmod:poss _ Gloss=of.escape|Ref=JER_16:19!4|MId=o240160190043|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 10-11 בְּי֣וֹם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=JER_16:19!5|MId=o240160190051|Strong=0871a 11 י֣וֹם יוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 nmod _ Gloss=a.day|Ref=JER_16:19!5|MId=o240160190052|Strong=3117 12 צָרָ֑ה צָרָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 11 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.trouble|Ref=JER_16:19!6|MId=o240160190061|Strong=6869 13-14 אֵלֶ֗יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 אֵלֶ֗י אֶל ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JER_16:19!7|MId=o240160190071|Strong=0413 14 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 16 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=JER_16:19!7|MId=o240160190072|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 15 גּוֹיִ֤ם גּוֹי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 16 nsubj _ Gloss=nations|Ref=JER_16:19!8|MId=o240160190081|Strong=1471 16 יָבֹ֙אוּ֙ בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.will.come|Ref=JER_16:19!9|MId=o240160190091|Strong=0935|Frame=A0:240160190081;|Type=yiqtol 17-18 מֵֽאַפְסֵי־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 מֵֽ מִן ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=from.[the]|Ref=JER_16:19!10|MId=o240160190101|Strong=4480 18 אַפְסֵי־ אֶפֶס NOUN _ _ 16 obl _ Gloss=ends|Ref=JER_16:19!10|MId=o240160190102|Strong=0657 19 אָ֔רֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 18 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.[the].earth|Ref=JER_16:19!11|MId=o240160190111|Strong=0776 20-21 וְיֹאמְר֗וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 21 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_16:19!12|MId=o240160190121|Strong=2050b 21 יֹאמְר֗וּ אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 16 conj _ Gloss=they.will.say|Ref=JER_16:19!12|MId=o240160190122|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:240160190081;A1:240160190151;240160190171;240160190182;|Type=yiqtol 22 אַךְ־ אַךְ ADV _ _ 23 advmod _ Gloss=surely|Ref=JER_16:19!13|MId=o240160190131|Strong=0389|Type=affirmation|SpaceAfter=No 23 שֶׁ֙קֶר֙ שֶׁקֶר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 24 obj _ Gloss=falsehood|Ref=JER_16:19!14|MId=o240160190141|Strong=8267 24 נָחֲל֣וּ נָחַל VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 21 ccomp _ Gloss=they.possessed|Ref=JER_16:19!15|MId=o240160190151|Strong=5157|Frame=A1:240160190141;A0:240160190161;|Type=qatal 25-26 אֲבוֹתֵ֔ינוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 אֲבוֹתֵ֔י אָב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 24 nsubj _ Gloss=ancestors|Ref=JER_16:19!16|MId=o240160190161|Strong=0001 26 נוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 25 nmod:poss _ Gloss=our|Ref=JER_16:19!16|MId=o240160190162|Strong=5105a|Type=pronominal 27 הֶ֖בֶל הֶבֶל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 24 parataxis _ Gloss=futility|Ref=JER_16:19!17|MId=o240160190171|Strong=1892 28-29 וְאֵֽין־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 28 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 29 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_16:19!18|MId=o240160190181|Strong=2050b 29 אֵֽין־ אַיִן ADV _ _ 27 conj _ Gloss=there.[was].not|Ref=JER_16:19!18|MId=o240160190182|Strong=0369|Type=negative 30-31 בָּ֥ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 30 בּ בְּ ADP _ _ 31 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=JER_16:19!19|MId=o240160190191|Strong=0871a 31 ָ֥ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 29 obl _ Gloss=them|Ref=JER_16:19!19|MId=o240160190192|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 32 מוֹעִֽיל יָעַל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing 29 nsubj _ Gloss=[that.which].profits|Ref=JER_16:19!20|MId=o240160190201|Strong=3276|Type=participle_active|SpaceAfter=No 33 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 32 punct _ Ref=JER_16:19!20 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
