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 — eyes — and what happens in the verse to innocent blood, blood, 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. כִּ֣י אֵ֤ין עֵינֶ֙יךָ֙ וְלִבְּךָ֔ כִּ֖י אִם־עַל־בִּצְעֶ֑ךָ וְעַ֤ל דַּֽם־הַנָּקִי֙ לִשְׁפּ֔וֹךְ וְעַל־הָעֹ֥שֶׁק וְעַל־הַמְּרוּצָ֖ה לַעֲשֽׂוֹת׃ס [But thine eyes and thy heart are not but for thy covetousness, and for shedding innocent blood, and for oppression, and for violence, to do it.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JER.600/) ## 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:523 # text = כִּ֣י אֵ֤ין עֵינֶ֙יךָ֙ וְלִבְּךָ֔ כִּ֖י אִם־עַל־בִּצְעֶ֑ךָ וְעַ֤ל דַּֽם־הַנָּקִי֙ לִשְׁפּ֔וֹךְ וְעַל־הָעֹ֥שֶׁק וְעַל־הַמְּרוּצָ֖ה לַעֲשֽׂוֹת׃ס # verse = JER.22.17 1 כִּ֣י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 2 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=JER_22:17!1|MId=o240220170011|Strong=3588 2 אֵ֤ין אַיִן ADV _ _ 0 root _ Gloss=not|Ref=JER_22:17!2|MId=o240220170021|Strong=0369|Type=negative 3-4 עֵינֶ֙יךָ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 עֵינֶ֙י עַיִן NOUN _ Number=Dual 2 nsubj _ Gloss=eyes|Ref=JER_22:17!3|MId=o240220170031|Strong=5869 4 ךָ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 3 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=JER_22:17!3|MId=o240220170032|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 5-7 וְלִבְּךָ֔ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 6 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_22:17!4|MId=o240220170041|Strong=2050b 6 לִבּ לֵב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 conj _ Gloss=heart|Ref=JER_22:17!4|MId=o240220170042|Strong=3820 7 ְךָ֔ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 6 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=JER_22:17!4|MId=o240220170043|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 8 כִּ֖י כִּי SCONJ _ ExtPos=SCONJ 11 mark _ Gloss=[are].(dm)|Ref=JER_22:17!5|MId=o240220170051|Strong=3588 9 אִם־ אִם SCONJ _ _ 8 fixed _ Gloss=(if)|Ref=JER_22:17!6|MId=o240220170061|Strong=0518|SpaceAfter=No 10 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=JER_22:17!7|MId=o240220170071|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 11-12 בִּצְעֶ֑ךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 בִּצְע בֶּצַע NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 parataxis _ Gloss=gain|Ref=JER_22:17!8|MId=o240220170081|Strong=1215 12 ֶ֑ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 11 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your.unjust|Ref=JER_22:17!8|MId=o240220170082|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 13-14 וְעַ֤ל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 15 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_22:17!9|MId=o240220170091|Strong=2050b 14 עַ֤ל עַל ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=JER_22:17!9|MId=o240220170092|Strong=5921 15 דַּֽם־ דָּם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 11 conj _ Gloss=the.blood|Ref=JER_22:17!10|MId=o240220170101|Strong=1818|SpaceAfter=No 16-17 הַנָּקִי֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 17 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=JER_22:17!11|MId=o240220170111|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 17 נָּקִי֙ נָקִי ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 15 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.innocent.[person]|Ref=JER_22:17!11|MId=o240220170112|Strong=5355|Type=adjective 18-19 לִשְׁפּ֔וֹךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JER_22:17!12|MId=o240220170121|Strong=3807a 19 שְׁפּ֔וֹךְ שָׁפַךְ VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 15 nmod _ Gloss=shed.[it]|Ref=JER_22:17!12|MId=o240220170122|Strong=8210|Frame=A0:240220130021;A1:240220170101;|Type=infinitive_construct 20-21 וְעַל־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 23 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_22:17!13|MId=o240220170131|Strong=2050b 21 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=JER_22:17!13|MId=o240220170132|Strong=5921 22-23 הָעֹ֥שֶׁק _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 23 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=JER_22:17!14|MId=o240220170141|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 23 עֹ֥שֶׁק עֹשֶׁק NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 11 conj _ Gloss=oppression|Ref=JER_22:17!14|MId=o240220170142|Strong=6233 24-25 וְעַל־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 27 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_22:17!15|MId=o240220170151|Strong=2050b 25 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 27 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=JER_22:17!15|MId=o240220170152|Strong=5921 26-27 הַמְּרוּצָ֖ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 27 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=JER_22:17!16|MId=o240220170161|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 27 מְּרוּצָ֖ה מְרוּצָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 11 conj _ Gloss=extortion|Ref=JER_22:17!16|MId=o240220170162|Strong=4835 28-29 לַעֲשֽׂוֹת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 28 לַ לְ ADP _ _ 29 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JER_22:17!17|MId=o240220170171|Strong=3807a 29 עֲשֽׂוֹת עָשָׂה VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 27 nmod _ Gloss=do.[it]|Ref=JER_22:17!17|MId=o240220170172|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:240220130021;A1:240220170162;|Type=infinitive_construct 30 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 29 punct _ Ref=JER_22:17!17|SpaceAfter=No 31 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 29 punct _ Ref=JER_22:17!17 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: yes | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | שְׁפּוֹךְ *shed \[it\]* | infinitive construct · qal | | דַּֽם־ *the blood* | | | | עֲשֽׂוֹת *do \[it\]* | infinitive construct · qal | | מְּרוּצָה *extortion* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
