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, I — and what happens in the verse to standard, yourselves, covert, evil, north, 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. שְׂאוּ־נֵ֣ס צִיּ֔וֹנָה הָעִ֖יזוּ אַֽל־תַּעֲמֹ֑דוּ כִּ֣י רָעָ֗ה אָנֹכִ֛י מֵבִ֥יא מִצָּפ֖וֹן וְשֶׁ֥בֶר גָּדֽוֹל׃ [Set up a standard toward Zion; put yourselves under covert, stay not; for I will bring evil from the north, and a great destruction.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JER.103/) ## 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:86 # text = שְׂאוּ־נֵ֣ס צִיּ֔וֹנָה הָעִ֖יזוּ אַֽל־תַּעֲמֹ֑דוּ כִּ֣י רָעָ֗ה אָנֹכִ֛י מֵבִ֥יא מִצָּפ֖וֹן וְשֶׁ֥בֶר גָּדֽוֹל׃ # verse = JER.4.6 1 שְׂאוּ־ נָשָׂא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=lift.up|Ref=JER_4:6!1|MId=o240040060011|Strong=5375|Frame=A0:;A1:240040060021;|Type=imperative|SpaceAfter=No 2 נֵ֣ס נֵס NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 1 obj _ Gloss=a.standard|Ref=JER_4:6!2|MId=o240040060021|Strong=5251 3-4 צִיּ֔וֹנָה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 צִיּ֔וֹנ צִיּוֹן PROPN _ _ 1 obl _ Gloss=to|Ref=JER_4:6!3|MId=o240040060031|Strong=6726 4 ָה ה X _ _ 3 nmod _ Gloss=Zion|Ref=JER_4:6!3|MId=o240040060032|Strong=1886c|Type=directional_he 5 הָעִ֖יזוּ עוּז VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Plur|Person=2 1 parataxis _ Gloss=bring.to.safety|Ref=JER_4:6!4|MId=o240040060041|Strong=5756|Frame=A0:240040050022;240040050033;|Type=imperative 6 אַֽל־ אַל ADV _ _ 7 advmod _ Gloss=do.not|Ref=JER_4:6!5|MId=o240040060051|Strong=0408|Type=negative|SpaceAfter=No 7 תַּעֲמֹ֑דוּ עָמַד VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 1 parataxis _ Gloss=stand.still|Ref=JER_4:6!6|MId=o240040060061|Strong=5975|Frame=A0:240040050022;240040050033;|Type=jussive 8 כִּ֣י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 11 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=JER_4:6!7|MId=o240040060071|Strong=3588 9 רָעָ֗ה רָעָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 11 obj _ Gloss=calamity|Ref=JER_4:6!8|MId=o240040060081|Strong=7451b 10 אָנֹכִ֛י אָנֹכִי PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 11 nsubj _ Gloss=I|Ref=JER_4:6!9|MId=o240040060091|Strong=0595|Type=personal 11 מֵבִ֥יא בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing 1 advcl _ Gloss=[am].about.to.bring|Ref=JER_4:6!10|MId=o240040060101|Strong=0935|Frame=AA:240040060091;A0:240040060081;240040060122;|Type=participle_active 12-13 מִצָּפ֖וֹן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=from.[the]|Ref=JER_4:6!11|MId=o240040060111|Strong=4480 13 צָּפ֖וֹן צָפוֹן NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 11 obl _ Gloss=north|Ref=JER_4:6!11|MId=o240040060112|Strong=6828 14-15 וְשֶׁ֥בֶר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 15 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_4:6!12|MId=o240040060121|Strong=2050b 15 שֶׁ֥בֶר שֶׁבֶר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 conj _ Gloss=destruction|Ref=JER_4:6!12|MId=o240040060122|Strong=7667 16 גָּדֽוֹל גָּדוֹל ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 15 amod _ Gloss=great|Ref=JER_4:6!13|MId=o240040060131|Strong=1419|Type=adjective|SpaceAfter=No 17 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 16 punct _ Ref=JER_4:6!13 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: command - act: request - 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | שְׂאוּ־ *lift up* | imperative · qal | | נֵס *a standard* | | | | הָעִיזוּ *bring to safety* | imperative · hiphil | | | | | | **not** תַּעֲמֹדוּ *stand still* | jussive · qal | | | | | | מֵבִיא *\[am\] about to bring* | participle active · hiphil | רָעָה *calamity* + שֶׁבֶר *destruction* | | | אָנֹכִי *I* | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
