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 — sound, mercenaries — and what happens in the verse, 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. קוֹלָ֖הּ כַּנָּחָ֣שׁ יֵלֵ֑ךְ כִּֽי־בְחַ֣יִל יֵלֵ֔כוּ וּבְקַרְדֻּמּוֹת֙ בָּ֣אוּ לָ֔הּ כְּחֹטְבֵ֖י עֵצִֽים׃ [The sound thereof shall go like the serpent's; for they march with an army, and come against her with axes, as hewers of wood.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JER.1220/) ## 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:1119 # text = קוֹלָ֖הּ כַּנָּחָ֣שׁ יֵלֵ֑ךְ כִּֽי־בְחַ֣יִל יֵלֵ֔כוּ וּבְקַרְדֻּמּוֹת֙ בָּ֣אוּ לָ֔הּ כְּחֹטְבֵ֖י עֵצִֽים׃ # verse = JER.46.22 1-2 קוֹלָ֖הּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 קוֹל קוֹל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 nsubj _ Gloss=sound|Ref=JER_46:22!1|MId=o240460220011|Strong=6963 2 ָ֖הּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 1 nmod:poss _ Gloss=its|Ref=JER_46:22!1|MId=o240460220012|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 3-5 כַּנָּחָ֣שׁ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 כַּ כְּ ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=[is].like|Ref=JER_46:22!2|MId=o240460220021|Strong=3509a 4 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 5 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=JER_46:22!2|MId=o240460220021ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 5 נָּחָ֣שׁ נָחָשׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 obl _ Gloss=snake|Ref=JER_46:22!2|MId=o240460220022|Strong=5175 6 יֵלֵ֑ךְ הלך VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=[which].it.goes|Ref=JER_46:22!3|MId=o240460220031|Strong=1980|Frame=A0:240460220011;|Type=yiqtol 7 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 10 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=JER_46:22!4|MId=o240460220041|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 8-9 בְחַ֣יִל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 בְ בְּ ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=JER_46:22!5|MId=o240460220051|Strong=0871a 9 חַ֣יִל חַיִל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 10 obl _ Gloss=strength|Ref=JER_46:22!5|MId=o240460220052|Strong=2428 10 יֵלֵ֔כוּ הלך VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 6 advcl _ Gloss=they.will.come|Ref=JER_46:22!6|MId=o240460220061|Strong=1980|Frame=A0:240460200041;|Type=yiqtol 11-13 וּבְקַרְדֻּמּוֹת֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 14 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_46:22!7|MId=o240460220071|Strong=2050b 12 בְ בְּ ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=JER_46:22!7|MId=o240460220072|Strong=0871a 13 קַרְדֻּמּוֹת֙ קַרְדֹּם NOUN _ Number=Plur 14 obl _ Gloss=axes|Ref=JER_46:22!7|MId=o240460220073|Strong=7134 14 בָּ֣אוּ בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 6 conj _ Gloss=they.will.come|Ref=JER_46:22!8|MId=o240460220081|Strong=0935|Frame=A0:240460200041;|Type=qatal 15-16 לָ֔הּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 ל לְ ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JER_46:22!9|MId=o240460220091|Strong=3807a 16 ָ֔הּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 14 obl _ Gloss=it|Ref=JER_46:22!9|MId=o240460220092|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 17-18 כְּחֹטְבֵ֖י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 כְּ כְּ ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=like|Ref=JER_46:22!10|MId=o240460220101|Strong=3509a 18 חֹטְבֵ֖י חָטַב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur 14 advcl _ Gloss=cutters|Ref=JER_46:22!10|MId=o240460220102|Strong=2404|Frame=A1:240460220111;|Type=participle_active 19 עֵצִֽים עֵץ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 18 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.wood(s)|Ref=JER_46:22!11|MId=o240460220111|Strong=6086|SpaceAfter=No 20 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 19 punct _ Ref=JER_46:22!11 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יֵלֵךְ *\[which\] it goes* | yiqtol · qal | קוֹל *sound* | | | | | יֵלֵכוּ *they will come* | yiqtol · qal | | | | | | בָּאוּ *they will come* | qatal · qal | | | | | | חֹטְבֵי *cutters* | participle active · qal | | עֵצִֽים *of wood(s)* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
