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 — Ishmael, great waters — and what happens in the verse to men, Nethaniah, Gibeon, 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. וַיִּקְחוּ֙ אֶת־כָּל־הָ֣אֲנָשִׁ֔ים וַיֵּ֣לְכ֔וּ לְהִלָּחֵ֖ם עִם־יִשְׁמָעֵ֣אל בֶּן־נְתַנְיָ֑ה וַיִּמְצְא֣וּ אֹת֔וֹ אֶל־מַ֥יִם רַבִּ֖ים אֲשֶׁ֥ר בְּגִבְעֽוֹן׃ [then they took all the men, and went to fight with Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and found him by the great waters that are in Gibeon.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JER.1121/) ## 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:1021 # text = וַיִּקְחוּ֙ אֶת־כָּל־הָ֣אֲנָשִׁ֔ים וַיֵּ֣לְכ֔וּ לְהִלָּחֵ֖ם עִם־יִשְׁמָעֵ֣אל בֶּן־נְתַנְיָ֑ה וַיִּמְצְא֣וּ אֹת֔וֹ אֶל־מַ֥יִם רַבִּ֖ים אֲשֶׁ֥ר בְּגִבְעֽוֹן׃ # verse = JER.41.12 1-2 וַיִּקְחוּ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_41:12!1|MId=o240410120011|Strong=2050b 2 יִּקְחוּ֙ לָקַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.took|Ref=JER_41:12!1|MId=o240410120012|Strong=3947|Frame=A0:240410110021;240410110061;A1:240410120042;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=JER_41:12!2|MId=o240410120021|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 4 כָּל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obj _ Gloss=all|Ref=JER_41:12!3|MId=o240410120031|Strong=3605|SpaceAfter=No 5-6 הָ֣אֲנָשִׁ֔ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 הָ֣ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 6 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JER_41:12!4|MId=o240410120041|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 6 אֲנָשִׁ֔ים אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 4 compound:smixut _ Gloss=men|Ref=JER_41:12!4|MId=o240410120042|Strong=0376 7-8 וַיֵּ֣לְכ֔וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 8 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_41:12!5|MId=o240410120051|Strong=2050b 8 יֵּ֣לְכ֔וּ הלך VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=they.went|Ref=JER_41:12!5|MId=o240410120052|Strong=1980|Frame=A0:240410110021;240410110061;240410120042;|Type=wayyiqtol 9-10 לְהִלָּחֵ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JER_41:12!6|MId=o240410120061|Strong=3807a 10 הִלָּחֵ֖ם לָחַם VERB _ HebBinyan=NIPHAL 8 advcl _ Gloss=do.battle|Ref=JER_41:12!6|MId=o240410120062|Strong=3898|Frame=A0:240410110021;240410110061;240410120042;|Type=infinitive_construct 11 עִם־ עִם ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=JER_41:12!7|MId=o240410120071|Strong=5973|SpaceAfter=No 12 יִשְׁמָעֵ֣אל יִשְׁמָעֵאל PROPN _ _ 10 obl _ Gloss=Ishmael|Ref=JER_41:12!8|MId=o240410120081|Strong=3458 13 בֶּן־ בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 12 appos _ Gloss=the.son|Ref=JER_41:12!9|MId=o240410120091|Strong=1121|SpaceAfter=No 14 נְתַנְיָ֑ה נְתַנְיָה PROPN _ _ 13 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Nethaniah|Ref=JER_41:12!10|MId=o240410120101|Strong=5418 15-16 וַיִּמְצְא֣וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 16 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_41:12!11|MId=o240410120111|Strong=2050b 16 יִּמְצְא֣וּ מָצָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=they.found|Ref=JER_41:12!11|MId=o240410120112|Strong=4672|Frame=A0:240410110021;240410110061;240410120042;A1:240410120122;|Type=wayyiqtol 17-18 אֹת֔וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 אֹת אֵת ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=|Ref=JER_41:12!12|MId=o240410120121|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 18 ֔וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 16 obj _ Gloss=him|Ref=JER_41:12!12|MId=o240410120122|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 19 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JER_41:12!13|MId=o240410120131|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 20 מַ֥יִם מַיִם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 16 obl _ Gloss=water|Ref=JER_41:12!14|MId=o240410120141|Strong=4325 21 רַבִּ֖ים רַב ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 20 amod _ Gloss=great|Ref=JER_41:12!15|MId=o240410120151|Strong=7227|Type=adjective 22 אֲשֶׁ֥ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 24 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=JER_41:12!16|MId=o240410120161|Strong=0834|Type=relative 23-24 בְּגִבְעֽוֹן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 24 case _ Gloss=[is].in|Ref=JER_41:12!17|MId=o240410120171|Strong=0871a 24 גִבְעֽוֹן גִּבְעוֹן PROPN _ _ 20 acl:relcl _ Gloss=Gibeon|Ref=JER_41:12!17|MId=o240410120172|Strong=1391 25 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 24 punct _ Ref=JER_41:12!17 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: narrate - voice: narrator - speech: narration - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יִּקְחוּ *they took* | wayyiqtol · qal | | אֲנָשִׁים *men* | | | | יֵּלְכוּ *they went* | wayyiqtol · qal | אֲנָשִׁים *men* | | | | | הִלָּחֵם *do battle* | infinitive construct · niphal | אֲנָשִׁים *men* | | | | | יִּמְצְאוּ *they found* | wayyiqtol · qal | אֲנָשִׁים *men* | וֹ *him* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
