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 — you, LORD, Thou — and what happens in the verse to word, LORD, 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. אַ֚ךְ שְׁמַ֣ע דְּבַר־יְהוָ֔ה צִדְקִיָּ֖הוּ מֶ֣לֶךְ יְהוּדָ֑ה כֹּֽה־אָמַ֤ר יְהוָה֙ עָלֶ֔יךָ לֹ֥א תָמ֖וּת בֶּחָֽרֶב׃ [Yet hear the word of the LORD, O Zedekiah king of Judah: Thus saith the LORD concerning thee: Thou shalt not die by the sword;](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JER.950/) ## 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:857 # text = אַ֚ךְ שְׁמַ֣ע דְּבַר־יְהוָ֔ה צִדְקִיָּ֖הוּ מֶ֣לֶךְ יְהוּדָ֑ה כֹּֽה־אָמַ֤ר יְהוָה֙ עָלֶ֔יךָ לֹ֥א תָמ֖וּת בֶּחָֽרֶב׃ # verse = JER.34.4 1 אַ֚ךְ אַךְ ADV _ _ 2 advmod _ Gloss=nevertheless|Ref=JER_34:4!1|MId=o240340040011|Strong=0389|Type=affirmation 2 שְׁמַ֣ע שָׁמַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=hear|Ref=JER_34:4!2|MId=o240340040021|Strong=8085|Frame=A0:240340040051;A1:240340040031;|Type=imperative 3 דְּבַר־ דָּבָר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obj _ Gloss=the.word|Ref=JER_34:4!3|MId=o240340040031|Strong=1697|SpaceAfter=No 4 יְהוָ֔ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 3 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=JER_34:4!4|MId=o240340040041|Strong=3068 5 צִדְקִיָּ֖הוּ צִדְקִיָּהוּ PROPN _ _ 2 parataxis _ Gloss=O.Zedekiah|Ref=JER_34:4!5|MId=o240340040051|Strong=6667a 6 מֶ֣לֶךְ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 5 appos _ Gloss=the.king|Ref=JER_34:4!6|MId=o240340040061|Strong=4428 7 יְהוּדָ֑ה יְהוּדָה PROPN _ _ 6 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Judah|Ref=JER_34:4!7|MId=o240340040071|Strong=3063 8 כֹּֽה־ כֹּה ADV _ _ 9 advmod _ Gloss=thus|Ref=JER_34:4!8|MId=o240340040081|Strong=3541|SpaceAfter=No 9 אָמַ֤ר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 parataxis _ Gloss=he.says|Ref=JER_34:4!9|MId=o240340040091|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:240340040101;|Type=qatal 10 יְהוָה֙ יהוה PROPN _ _ 9 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=JER_34:4!10|MId=o240340040101|Strong=3068 11-12 עָלֶ֔יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 עָלֶ֔י עַל ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=JER_34:4!11|MId=o240340040111|Strong=5921 12 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 9 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=JER_34:4!11|MId=o240340040112|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 13 לֹ֥א לֹא ADV _ _ 14 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=JER_34:4!12|MId=o240340040121|Strong=3808|Type=negative 14 תָמ֖וּת מוּת VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 9 ccomp _ Gloss=you.will.die|Ref=JER_34:4!13|MId=o240340040131|Strong=4191|Frame=A0:240340040051;|Type=yiqtol 15-17 בֶּחָֽרֶב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 בֶּ בְּ ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=by|Ref=JER_34:4!14|MId=o240340040141|Strong=0871a 16 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 17 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JER_34:4!14|MId=o240340040141ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 17 חָֽרֶב חֶרֶב NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 14 obl _ Gloss=sword|Ref=JER_34:4!14|MId=o240340040142|Strong=2719 18 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 17 punct _ Ref=JER_34:4!14 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: request - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: yes - indirect: yes - the frame alone: decl · assert · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | שְׁמַע *hear* | imperative · qal | צִדְקִיָּהוּ *O Zedekiah* | דְּבַר־ *the word* | | | | אָמַר *he says* | qatal · qal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | | | | **not** תָמוּת *you will die* | yiqtol · qal | צִדְקִיָּהוּ *O Zedekiah* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
