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 — certain men, fourscore men, beards — and what happens in the verse to beards, clothes, men, house, 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. וַיָּבֹ֣אוּ אֲ֠נָשִׁים מִשְּׁכֶ֞ם מִשִּׁל֤וֹ וּמִשֹּֽׁמְרוֹן֙ שְׁמֹנִ֣ים אִ֔ישׁ מְגֻלְּחֵ֥י זָקָ֛ן וּקְרֻעֵ֥י בְגָדִ֖ים וּמִתְגֹּֽדְדִ֑ים וּמִנְחָ֤ה וּלְבוֹנָה֙ בְּיָדָ֔ם לְהָבִ֖יא בֵּ֥ית יְהוָֽה׃ [that there came certain men from Shechem, from Shiloh, and from Samaria, even fourscore men, having their beards shaven and their clothes rent, and having cut themselves, with meal-offerings and frankincense in their hand to bring them to the house of the LORD.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JER.1114/) ## 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:1014 # text = וַיָּבֹ֣אוּ אֲ֠נָשִׁים מִשְּׁכֶ֞ם מִשִּׁל֤וֹ וּמִשֹּֽׁמְרוֹן֙ שְׁמֹנִ֣ים אִ֔ישׁ מְגֻלְּחֵ֥י זָקָ֛ן וּקְרֻעֵ֥י בְגָדִ֖ים וּמִתְגֹּֽדְדִ֑ים וּמִנְחָ֤ה וּלְבוֹנָה֙ בְּיָדָ֔ם לְהָבִ֖יא בֵּ֥ית יְהוָֽה׃ # verse = JER.41.5 1-2 וַיָּבֹ֣אוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_41:5!1|MId=o240410050011|Strong=2050b 2 יָּבֹ֣אוּ בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.came|Ref=JER_41:5!1|MId=o240410050012|Strong=0935|Frame=A0:240410050021;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 אֲ֠נָשִׁים אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 2 nsubj _ Gloss=men|Ref=JER_41:5!2|MId=o240410050021|Strong=0376 4-5 מִשְּׁכֶ֞ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=JER_41:5!3|MId=o240410050031|Strong=4480 5 שְּׁכֶ֞ם שְׁכֶם PROPN _ _ 2 obl _ Gloss=Shechem|Ref=JER_41:5!3|MId=o240410050032|Strong=7927a 6-7 מִשִּׁל֤וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=JER_41:5!4|MId=o240410050041|Strong=4480 7 שִּׁל֤וֹ שִׁלוֹ PROPN _ _ 5 conj _ Gloss=Shiloh|Ref=JER_41:5!4|MId=o240410050042|Strong=7887 8-10 וּמִשֹּֽׁמְרוֹן֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 10 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_41:5!5|MId=o240410050051|Strong=2050b 9 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=JER_41:5!5|MId=o240410050052|Strong=4480 10 שֹּֽׁמְרוֹן֙ שֹׁמְרוֹן PROPN _ _ 5 conj _ Gloss=Samaria|Ref=JER_41:5!5|MId=o240410050053|Strong=8111 11 שְׁמֹנִ֣ים שְׁמֹנֶה NUM _ Number=Plur 12 nummod _ Gloss=eighty|Ref=JER_41:5!6|MId=o240410050061|Strong=8084|Type=cardinal_number 12 אִ֔ישׁ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 appos _ Gloss=man|Ref=JER_41:5!7|MId=o240410050071|Strong=0376 13 מְגֻלְּחֵ֥י גָּלַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PUAL|Number=Plur 3 appos _ Gloss=shaven|Ref=JER_41:5!8|MId=o240410050081|Strong=1548|Frame=A1:240410050021;|Type=participle_passive 14 זָקָ֛ן זָקָן NOUN _ Number=Sing 13 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.beard|Ref=JER_41:5!9|MId=o240410050091|Strong=2206 15-16 וּקְרֻעֵ֥י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 16 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_41:5!10|MId=o240410050101|Strong=2050b 16 קְרֻעֵ֥י קָרַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur 13 conj _ Gloss=torn|Ref=JER_41:5!10|MId=o240410050102|Strong=7167|Frame=A1:240410050021;|Type=participle_passive 17 בְגָדִ֖ים בֶּגֶד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 16 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.clothes|Ref=JER_41:5!11|MId=o240410050111|Strong=0899 18-19 וּמִתְגֹּֽדְדִ֑ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 19 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_41:5!12|MId=o240410050121|Strong=2050b 19 מִתְגֹּֽדְדִ֑ים גָּדַד VERB _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 13 conj _ Gloss=having.cut.themselves|Ref=JER_41:5!12|MId=o240410050122|Strong=1413a|Frame=A0:240410050021;|Type=participle_active 20-21 וּמִנְחָ֤ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 25 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_41:5!13|MId=o240410050131|Strong=2050b 21 מִנְחָ֤ה מִנְחָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 25 nsubj _ Gloss=an.offering|Ref=JER_41:5!13|MId=o240410050132|Strong=4503 22-23 וּלְבוֹנָה֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 23 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_41:5!14|MId=o240410050141|Strong=2050b 23 לְבוֹנָה֙ לְבֹנָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 21 conj _ Gloss=frankincense|Ref=JER_41:5!14|MId=o240410050142|Strong=3828 24-26 בְּיָדָ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 25 case _ Gloss=[was].in|Ref=JER_41:5!15|MId=o240410050151|Strong=0871a 25 יָד יָד NOUN _ Number=Sing 2 conj _ Gloss=hand|Ref=JER_41:5!15|MId=o240410050152|Strong=3027 26 ָ֔ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 25 nmod:poss _ Gloss=their|Ref=JER_41:5!15|MId=o240410050153|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 27-28 לְהָבִ֖יא _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 28 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JER_41:5!16|MId=o240410050161|Strong=3807a 28 הָבִ֖יא בּוֹא VERB _ HebBinyan=HIPHIL 25 advcl _ Gloss=bring.[them]|Ref=JER_41:5!16|MId=o240410050162|Strong=0935|Frame=AA:240410050021;A0:240410050132;240410050142;|Type=infinitive_construct 29 בֵּ֥ית בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 28 obl _ Gloss=the.house|Ref=JER_41:5!17|MId=o240410050171|Strong=1004 30 יְהוָֽה יהוה PROPN _ _ 29 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=JER_41:5!18|MId=o240410050181|Strong=3068|SpaceAfter=No 31 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 30 punct _ Ref=JER_41:5!18 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יָּבֹאוּ *they came* | wayyiqtol · qal | אֲנָשִׁים *men* | | | | | מְגֻלְּחֵי *shaven* | participle passive · pual | | אֲנָשִׁים *men* | | | | קְרֻעֵי *torn* | participle passive · qal | | אֲנָשִׁים *men* | | | | מִתְגֹּֽדְדִים *having cut themselves* | participle active | אֲנָשִׁים *men* | | | | | הָבִיא *bring \[them\]* | infinitive construct · hiphil | מִנְחָה *an offering* + לְבוֹנָה *frankincense* | | | אֲנָשִׁים *men* | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
