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 — sand, I, Levites — and what happens in the verse to host, seed, 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. אֲשֶׁ֤ר לֹֽא־יִסָּפֵר֙ צְבָ֣א הַשָּׁמַ֔יִם וְלֹ֥א יִמַּ֖ד ח֣וֹל הַיָּ֑ם כֵּ֣ן אַרְבֶּ֗ה אֶת־זֶ֙רַע֙ דָּוִ֣ד עַבְדִּ֔י וְאֶת־הַלְוִיִּ֖ם מְשָׁרְתֵ֥י אֹתִֽי׃ס [As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured; so will I multiply the seed of David My servant, and the Levites that minister unto Me.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JER.942/) ## 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:849 # text = אֲשֶׁ֤ר לֹֽא־יִסָּפֵר֙ צְבָ֣א הַשָּׁמַ֔יִם וְלֹ֥א יִמַּ֖ד ח֣וֹל הַיָּ֑ם כֵּ֣ן אַרְבֶּ֗ה אֶת־זֶ֙רַע֙ דָּוִ֣ד עַבְדִּ֔י וְאֶת־הַלְוִיִּ֖ם מְשָׁרְתֵ֥י אֹתִֽי׃ס # verse = JER.33.22 1 אֲשֶׁ֤ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 3 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=JER_33:22!1|MId=o240330220011|Strong=0834|Type=relative 2 לֹֽא־ לֹא ADV _ _ 3 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=JER_33:22!2|MId=o240330220021|Strong=3808|Type=negative|SpaceAfter=No 3 יִסָּפֵר֙ סָפַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 14 parataxis _ Gloss=it.will.be.counted|Ref=JER_33:22!3|MId=o240330220031|Strong=5608|Frame=A1:240330220041;|Type=yiqtol 4 צְבָ֣א צָבָא NOUN _ Number=Sing 3 nsubj _ Gloss=the.host|Ref=JER_33:22!4|MId=o240330220041|Strong=6635 5-6 הַשָּׁמַ֔יִם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 6 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=JER_33:22!5|MId=o240330220051|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 6 שָּׁמַ֔יִם שָׁמַיִם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 4 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.heavens|Ref=JER_33:22!5|MId=o240330220052|Strong=8064 7-8 וְלֹ֥א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 9 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_33:22!6|MId=o240330220061|Strong=2050b 8 לֹ֥א לֹא ADV _ _ 9 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=JER_33:22!6|MId=o240330220062|Strong=3808|Type=negative 9 יִמַּ֖ד מָדַד VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 3 conj _ Gloss=it.will.be.measured|Ref=JER_33:22!7|MId=o240330220071|Strong=4058|Frame=A1:240330220081;|Type=yiqtol 10 ח֣וֹל חוֹל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 nsubj _ Gloss=the.sand|Ref=JER_33:22!8|MId=o240330220081|Strong=2344 11-12 הַיָּ֑ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 12 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=JER_33:22!9|MId=o240330220091|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 12 יָּ֑ם יָם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 10 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.sea|Ref=JER_33:22!9|MId=o240330220092|Strong=3220 13 כֵּ֣ן כֵּן ADV _ _ 14 advmod _ Gloss=so|Ref=JER_33:22!10|MId=o240330220101|Strong=3651|Type=demonstrative 14 אַרְבֶּ֗ה רָבָה VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=1 0 root _ Gloss=I.will.increase|Ref=JER_33:22!11|MId=o240330220111|Strong=7235|Frame=AA:240330190031;A0:240330220131;240330220172;|Type=yiqtol 15 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=JER_33:22!12|MId=o240330220121|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 16 זֶ֙רַע֙ זֶרַע NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 14 obj _ Gloss=the.offspring|Ref=JER_33:22!13|MId=o240330220131|Strong=2233 17 דָּוִ֣ד דָּוִד PROPN _ _ 16 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.David|Ref=JER_33:22!14|MId=o240330220141|Strong=1732 18-19 עַבְדִּ֔י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 עַבְדּ עֶבֶד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 17 appos _ Gloss=servant|Ref=JER_33:22!15|MId=o240330220151|Strong=5650 19 ִ֔י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 18 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=JER_33:22!15|MId=o240330220152|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 20-21 וְאֶת־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 23 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_33:22!16|MId=o240330220161|Strong=2050b 21 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=JER_33:22!16|MId=o240330220162|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 22-23 הַלְוִיִּ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 23 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JER_33:22!17|MId=o240330220171|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 23 לְוִיִּ֖ם לֵוִי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 16 conj _ Gloss=Levites|Ref=JER_33:22!17|MId=o240330220172|Strong=3881|Type=gentilic 24 מְשָׁרְתֵ֥י שָׁרַת VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Plur 23 appos _ Gloss=[who].serve|Ref=JER_33:22!18|MId=o240330220181|Strong=8334|Frame=A0:240330220172;A1:240330220192;|Type=participle_active 25-26 אֹתִֽי _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 אֹת אֵת ADP _ _ 26 case _ Gloss=(of)|Ref=JER_33:22!19|MId=o240330220191|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 26 ִֽי הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 24 obj _ Gloss=me|Ref=JER_33:22!19|MId=o240330220192|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 27 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=JER_33:22!19|SpaceAfter=No 28 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=JER_33:22!19 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: promise - 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | **not** יִסָּפֵר *it will be counted* | yiqtol · niphal | | צְבָא *the host* | | | | **not** יִמַּד *it will be measured* | yiqtol · niphal | | חוֹל *the sand* | | | | אַרְבֶּה *I will increase* | yiqtol · hiphil | זֶרַע *the offspring* + לְוִיִּם *Levites* | | | | | מְשָׁרְתֵי *\[who\] serve* | participle active · piel | לְוִיִּם *Levites* | ִֽי *me* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
