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 — I, men, sword, end — and what happens in the verse to land, men, 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. הִנְנִ֨י שֹׁקֵ֧ד עֲלֵיהֶ֛ם לְרָעָ֖ה וְלֹ֣א לְטוֹבָ֑ה וְתַמּוּ֩ כָל־אִ֨ישׁ יְהוּדָ֜ה אֲשֶׁ֧ר בְּאֶֽרֶץ־מִצְרַ֛יִם בַּחֶ֥רֶב וּבָרָעָ֖ב עַד־כְּלוֹתָֽם׃ [Behold, I watch over them for evil, and not for good; and all the men of Judah that are in the land of Egypt shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine, until there be an end of them.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JER.1189/) ## 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:1089 # text = הִנְנִ֨י שֹׁקֵ֧ד עֲלֵיהֶ֛ם לְרָעָ֖ה וְלֹ֣א לְטוֹבָ֑ה וְתַמּוּ֩ כָל־אִ֨ישׁ יְהוּדָ֜ה אֲשֶׁ֧ר בְּאֶֽרֶץ־מִצְרַ֛יִם בַּחֶ֥רֶב וּבָרָעָ֖ב עַד־כְּלוֹתָֽם׃ # verse = JER.44.27 1-2 הִנְנִ֨י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 הִנ הִנֵּה INTJ _ _ 3 nsubj _ Gloss=here|Ref=JER_44:27!1|MId=o240440270011|Strong=2009|Type=demonstrative 2 ְנִ֨י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 1 nsubj _ Gloss=I|Ref=JER_44:27!1|MId=o240440270012|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 3 שֹׁקֵ֧ד שָׁקַד VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 0 root _ Gloss=[am].keeping.watch|Ref=JER_44:27!2|MId=o240440270021|Strong=8245|Frame=A0:240440270012;|Type=participle_active 4-5 עֲלֵיהֶ֛ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 עֲלֵי עַל ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=over|Ref=JER_44:27!3|MId=o240440270031|Strong=5921 5 הֶ֛ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 3 obl _ Gloss=them|Ref=JER_44:27!3|MId=o240440270032|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 6-7 לְרָעָ֖ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=JER_44:27!4|MId=o240440270041|Strong=3807a 7 רָעָ֖ה רָעָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 3 obl _ Gloss=harm|Ref=JER_44:27!4|MId=o240440270042|Strong=7451b 8-9 וְלֹ֣א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 9 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_44:27!5|MId=o240440270051|Strong=2050b 9 לֹ֣א לֹא ADV _ _ 3 conj _ Gloss=not|Ref=JER_44:27!5|MId=o240440270052|Strong=3808|Type=negative 10-11 לְטוֹבָ֑ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=JER_44:27!6|MId=o240440270061|Strong=3807a 11 טוֹבָ֑ה טוֹבָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 9 obl _ Gloss=good|Ref=JER_44:27!6|MId=o240440270062|Strong=2896b|Type=adjective 12-13 וְתַמּוּ֩ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 13 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_44:27!7|MId=o240440270071|Strong=2050b 13 תַמּוּ֩ תָּמַם VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 3 conj _ Gloss=they.will.meet.their.end|Ref=JER_44:27!7|MId=o240440270072|Strong=8552|Frame=A0:240440270091;|Type=weqatal 14 כָל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 13 nsubj _ Gloss=every|Ref=JER_44:27!8|MId=o240440270081|Strong=3605|SpaceAfter=No 15 אִ֨ישׁ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 14 compound:smixut _ Gloss=person|Ref=JER_44:27!9|MId=o240440270091|Strong=0376 16 יְהוּדָ֜ה יְהוּדָה PROPN _ _ 15 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Judah|Ref=JER_44:27!10|MId=o240440270101|Strong=3063 17 אֲשֶׁ֧ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 19 mark _ Gloss=who|Ref=JER_44:27!11|MId=o240440270111|Strong=0834|Type=relative 18-19 בְּאֶֽרֶץ־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=[is].in|Ref=JER_44:27!12|MId=o240440270121|Strong=0871a 19 אֶֽרֶץ־ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 14 acl:relcl _ Gloss=the.land|Ref=JER_44:27!12|MId=o240440270122|Strong=0776 20 מִצְרַ֛יִם מִצְרַיִם PROPN _ _ 19 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Egypt|Ref=JER_44:27!13|MId=o240440270131|Strong=4714 21-23 בַּחֶ֥רֶב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=by|Ref=JER_44:27!14|MId=o240440270141|Strong=0871a 22 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 23 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JER_44:27!14|MId=o240440270141ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 23 חֶ֥רֶב חֶרֶב NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 13 obl _ Gloss=sword|Ref=JER_44:27!14|MId=o240440270142|Strong=2719 24-27 וּבָרָעָ֖ב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 27 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_44:27!15|MId=o240440270151|Strong=2050b 25 בָ בְּ ADP _ _ 27 case _ Gloss=by|Ref=JER_44:27!15|MId=o240440270152|Strong=0871a 26 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 27 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=JER_44:27!15|MId=o240440270152ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 27 רָעָ֖ב רָעָב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 23 conj _ Gloss=famine|Ref=JER_44:27!15|MId=o240440270153|Strong=7458 28 עַד־ עַד ADP _ _ 29 case _ Gloss=until|Ref=JER_44:27!16|MId=o240440270161|Strong=5704|SpaceAfter=No 29-30 כְּלוֹתָֽם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 29 כְּלוֹת כָּלָה VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 13 advcl _ Gloss=they|Ref=JER_44:27!17|MId=o240440270171|Strong=3615|Frame=A0:240440270172;|Type=infinitive_construct 30 ָֽם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 29 nsubj _ Gloss=come.to.an.end|Ref=JER_44:27!17|MId=o240440270172|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 31 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 30 punct _ Ref=JER_44:27!17 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - 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** שֹׁקֵד *\[am\] keeping watch* | participle active · qal | ְנִי *I* | | | | | תַמּוּ *they will meet their end* | weqatal · qal | אִישׁ *person* | | | | | כְּלוֹת *they* | infinitive construct · qal | ָֽם *come to an end* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
