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 — I, LORD — and what happens in the verse to thoughts, future, you, peace, 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. כִּי֩ אָנֹכִ֨י יָדַ֜עְתִּי אֶת־הַמַּחֲשָׁבֹ֗ת אֲשֶׁ֧ר אָנֹכִ֛י חֹשֵׁ֥ב עֲלֵיכֶ֖ם נְאֻם־יְהוָ֑ה מַחְשְׁב֤וֹת שָׁלוֹם֙ וְלֹ֣א לְרָעָ֔ה לָתֵ֥ת לָכֶ֖ם אַחֲרִ֥ית וְתִקְוָֽה׃ [For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JER.786/) ## 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:698 # text = כִּי֩ אָנֹכִ֨י יָדַ֜עְתִּי אֶת־הַמַּחֲשָׁבֹ֗ת אֲשֶׁ֧ר אָנֹכִ֛י חֹשֵׁ֥ב עֲלֵיכֶ֖ם נְאֻם־יְהוָ֑ה מַחְשְׁב֤וֹת שָׁלוֹם֙ וְלֹ֣א לְרָעָ֔ה לָתֵ֥ת לָכֶ֖ם אַחֲרִ֥ית וְתִקְוָֽה׃ # verse = JER.29.11 1 כִּי֩ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 3 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=JER_29:11!1|MId=o240290110011|Strong=3588 2 אָנֹכִ֨י אָנֹכִי PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 3 nsubj _ Gloss=I|Ref=JER_29:11!2|MId=o240290110021|Strong=0595|Type=personal 3 יָדַ֜עְתִּי יָדַע VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 0 root _ Gloss=I.know|Ref=JER_29:11!3|MId=o240290110031|Strong=3045|Frame=A0:240290110021;A1:240290110052;|Type=qatal 4 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=JER_29:11!4|MId=o240290110041|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 5-6 הַמַּחֲשָׁבֹ֗ת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 6 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JER_29:11!5|MId=o240290110051|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 6 מַּחֲשָׁבֹ֗ת מַחֲשָׁבָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 3 obj _ Gloss=plans|Ref=JER_29:11!5|MId=o240290110052|Strong=4284 7 אֲשֶׁ֧ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 9 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=JER_29:11!6|MId=o240290110061|Strong=0834|Type=relative 8 אָנֹכִ֛י אָנֹכִי PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 9 nsubj _ Gloss=I|Ref=JER_29:11!7|MId=o240290110071|Strong=0595|Type=personal 9 חֹשֵׁ֥ב חָשַׁב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 6 acl:relcl _ Gloss=[am].planning|Ref=JER_29:11!8|MId=o240290110081|Strong=2803|Frame=A0:240290110071;A1:240290110052;|Type=participle_active 10-11 עֲלֵיכֶ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 עֲלֵי עַל ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=JER_29:11!9|MId=o240290110091|Strong=5921 11 כֶ֖ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 9 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=JER_29:11!9|MId=o240290110092|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 12 נְאֻם־ נְאֻם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 parataxis _ Gloss=the.utterance|Ref=JER_29:11!10|MId=o240290110101|Strong=5002|SpaceAfter=No 13 יְהוָ֑ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 12 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=JER_29:11!11|MId=o240290110111|Strong=3068 14 מַחְשְׁב֤וֹת מַחֲשָׁבָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 3 parataxis _ Gloss=plans|Ref=JER_29:11!12|MId=o240290110121|Strong=4284 15 שָׁלוֹם֙ שָׁלוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 14 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.well-being|Ref=JER_29:11!13|MId=o240290110131|Strong=7965 16-17 וְלֹ֣א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 17 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_29:11!14|MId=o240290110141|Strong=2050b 17 לֹ֣א לֹא ADV _ _ 14 conj _ Gloss=not|Ref=JER_29:11!14|MId=o240290110142|Strong=3808|Type=negative 18-19 לְרָעָ֔ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=JER_29:11!15|MId=o240290110151|Strong=3807a 19 רָעָ֔ה רָעָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 17 obl _ Gloss=harm|Ref=JER_29:11!15|MId=o240290110152|Strong=7451b 20-21 לָתֵ֥ת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 לָ לְ ADP _ _ 21 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JER_29:11!16|MId=o240290110161|Strong=3807a 21 תֵ֥ת נָתַן VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 3 parataxis _ Gloss=give|Ref=JER_29:11!16|MId=o240290110162|Strong=5414|Frame=A0:240290110111;A1:240290110181;240290110192;|Type=infinitive_construct 22-23 לָכֶ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 ל לְ ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JER_29:11!17|MId=o240290110171|Strong=3807a 23 ָכֶ֖ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 21 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=JER_29:11!17|MId=o240290110172|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 24 אַחֲרִ֥ית אַחֲרִית NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 21 obj _ Gloss=a.future|Ref=JER_29:11!18|MId=o240290110181|Strong=0319 25-26 וְתִקְוָֽה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 26 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_29:11!19|MId=o240290110191|Strong=2050b 26 תִקְוָֽה תִּקְוָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 24 conj _ Gloss=a.hope|Ref=JER_29:11!19|MId=o240290110192|Strong=8615 27 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=JER_29:11!19 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יָדַעְתִּי *I know* | qatal · qal | אָנֹכִי *I* | מַּחֲשָׁבֹת *plans* | | | | חֹשֵׁב *\[am\] planning* | participle active · qal | אָנֹכִי *I* | מַּחֲשָׁבֹת *plans* | | | | תֵת *give* | infinitive construct · qal | יְהוָה *of Yahweh* | אַחֲרִית *a future* + תִקְוָֽה *a hope* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
