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, ye — and what happens in the verse to servants, you, ear, 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. וְשָׁלַח֩ יְהוָ֨ה אֲלֵיכֶ֜ם אֶֽת־כָּל־עֲבָדָ֧יו הַנְּבִאִ֛ים הַשְׁכֵּ֥ם וְשָׁלֹ֖חַ וְלֹ֣א שְׁמַעְתֶּ֑ם וְלֹֽא־הִטִּיתֶ֥ם אֶֽת־אָזְנְכֶ֖ם לִשְׁמֹֽעַ׃ [And the LORD hath sent unto you all His servants the prophets, sending them betimes and often — but ye have not hearkened, nor inclined your ear to hear —](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JER.675/) ## 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:590 # text = וְשָׁלַח֩ יְהוָ֨ה אֲלֵיכֶ֜ם אֶֽת־כָּל־עֲבָדָ֧יו הַנְּבִאִ֛ים הַשְׁכֵּ֥ם וְשָׁלֹ֖חַ וְלֹ֣א שְׁמַעְתֶּ֑ם וְלֹֽא־הִטִּיתֶ֥ם אֶֽת־אָזְנְכֶ֖ם לִשְׁמֹֽעַ׃ # verse = JER.25.4 1-2 וְשָׁלַח֩ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_25:4!1|MId=o240250040011|Strong=2050b 2 שָׁלַח֩ שָׁלַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.sent|Ref=JER_25:4!1|MId=o240250040012|Strong=7971|Frame=A0:240250040021;A1:240250040061;|Type=qatal 3 יְהוָ֨ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 2 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=JER_25:4!2|MId=o240250040021|Strong=3068 4-5 אֲלֵיכֶ֜ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 אֲלֵי אֶל ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JER_25:4!3|MId=o240250040031|Strong=0413 5 כֶ֜ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 2 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=JER_25:4!3|MId=o240250040032|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 6 אֶֽת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=JER_25:4!4|MId=o240250040041|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 7 כָּל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obj _ Gloss=all|Ref=JER_25:4!5|MId=o240250040051|Strong=3605|SpaceAfter=No 8-9 עֲבָדָ֧יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 עֲבָדָ֧י עֶבֶד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 7 compound:smixut _ Gloss=servants|Ref=JER_25:4!6|MId=o240250040061|Strong=5650 9 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 8 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=JER_25:4!6|MId=o240250040062|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 10-11 הַנְּבִאִ֛ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 11 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JER_25:4!7|MId=o240250040071|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 11 נְּבִאִ֛ים נָבִיא NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 8 appos _ Gloss=prophets|Ref=JER_25:4!7|MId=o240250040072|Strong=5030 12 הַשְׁכֵּ֥ם שָׁכַם VERB _ HebBinyan=HIPHIL 2 advmod _ Gloss=rising.early|Ref=JER_25:4!8|MId=o240250040081|Strong=7925|Type=infinitive_absolute 13-14 וְשָׁלֹ֖חַ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 14 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_25:4!9|MId=o240250040091|Strong=2050b 14 שָׁלֹ֖חַ שָׁלַח VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 12 conj _ Gloss=sending|Ref=JER_25:4!9|MId=o240250040092|Strong=7971|Type=infinitive_absolute 15-16 וְלֹ֣א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 17 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_25:4!10|MId=o240250040101|Strong=2050b 16 לֹ֣א לֹא ADV _ _ 17 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=JER_25:4!10|MId=o240250040102|Strong=3808|Type=negative 17 שְׁמַעְתֶּ֑ם שָׁמַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 2 conj _ Gloss=you.listened|Ref=JER_25:4!11|MId=o240250040111|Strong=8085|Frame=A0:240250030091;|Type=qatal 18-19 וְלֹֽא־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 20 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_25:4!12|MId=o240250040121|Strong=2050b 19 לֹֽא־ לֹא ADV _ _ 20 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=JER_25:4!12|MId=o240250040122|Strong=3808|Type=negative 20 הִטִּיתֶ֥ם נָטָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Plur|Person=2 2 conj _ Gloss=you.inclined|Ref=JER_25:4!13|MId=o240250040131|Strong=5186|Frame=AA:240250030091;A0:240250040151;|Type=qatal 21 אֶֽת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=JER_25:4!14|MId=o240250040141|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 22-23 אָזְנְכֶ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 אָזְנ אֹזֶן NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 20 obj _ Gloss=ear|Ref=JER_25:4!15|MId=o240250040151|Strong=0241 23 ְכֶ֖ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 22 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=JER_25:4!15|MId=o240250040152|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 24-25 לִשְׁמֹֽעַ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 25 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JER_25:4!16|MId=o240250040161|Strong=3807a 25 שְׁמֹֽעַ שָׁמַע VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 20 advcl _ Gloss=listen|Ref=JER_25:4!16|MId=o240250040162|Strong=8085|Frame=A0:240250030091;|Type=infinitive_construct 26 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 25 punct _ Ref=JER_25:4!16 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | שָׁלַח *he sent* | qatal · qal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | עֲבָדָי *servants* | | | | **not** שְׁמַעְתֶּם *you listened* | qatal · qal | | | | | | **not** הִטִּיתֶם *you inclined* | qatal · hiphil | אָזְנ *ear* | | | | | שְׁמֹֽעַ *listen* | infinitive construct · qal | | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
