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 — Baldness, thou, you — and what happens in the verse to thyself, scabbard, 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. ה֗וֹי חֶ֚רֶב לַֽיהוָ֔ה עַד־אָ֖נָה לֹ֣א תִשְׁקֹ֑טִי הֵאָֽסְפִי֙ אַל־תַּעְרֵ֔ךְ הֵרָגְעִ֖י וָדֹֽמִּי׃ [O thou sword of the LORD, how long will it be ere thou be quiet?](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JER.1232/) [Put up thyself into thy scabbard, rest, and be still.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JER.1233/) ## 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:1131 # text = ה֗וֹי חֶ֚רֶב לַֽיהוָ֔ה עַד־אָ֖נָה לֹ֣א תִשְׁקֹ֑טִי הֵאָֽסְפִי֙ אַל־תַּעְרֵ֔ךְ הֵרָגְעִ֖י וָדֹֽמִּי׃ # verse = JER.47.6 1 ה֗וֹי הוֹי INTJ _ _ 0 root _ Gloss=alas!|Ref=JER_47:6!1|MId=o240470060011|Strong=1945|Type=interjection 2 חֶ֚רֶב חֶרֶב NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 1 parataxis _ Gloss=O.sword|Ref=JER_47:6!2|MId=o240470060021|Strong=2719 3-4 לַֽיהוָ֔ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 לַֽ לְ ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=of|Ref=JER_47:6!3|MId=o240470060031|Strong=3807a 4 יהוָ֔ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 2 nmod _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=JER_47:6!3|MId=o240470060032|Strong=3068 5 עַד־ עַד ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=until|Ref=JER_47:6!4|MId=o240470060041|Strong=5704|SpaceAfter=No 6 אָ֖נָה אָן PRON _ PronType=Prs 8 obl _ Gloss=when?|Ref=JER_47:6!5|MId=o240470060051|Strong=0575 7 לֹ֣א לֹא ADV _ _ 8 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=JER_47:6!6|MId=o240470060061|Strong=3808|Type=negative 8 תִשְׁקֹ֑טִי שָׁקַט VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 1 parataxis _ Gloss=you.will.be.inactive|Ref=JER_47:6!7|MId=o240470060071|Strong=8252|Frame=A0:240470060021;|Type=yiqtol 9 הֵאָֽסְפִי֙ אָסַף VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 1 parataxis _ Gloss=gather.yourself|Ref=JER_47:6!8|MId=o240470060081|Strong=0622|Frame=A1:240470060021;|Type=imperative 10 אַל־ אֶל ADV _ _ 9 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=JER_47:6!9|MId=o240470060091|Strong=0413|Type=negative|SpaceAfter=No 11-12 תַּעְרֵ֔ךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 תַּעְר תַּעַר NOUN _ Number=Sing 10 nmod _ Gloss=sheath|Ref=JER_47:6!10|MId=o240470060101|Strong=8593 12 ֵ֔ךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 11 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=JER_47:6!10|MId=o240470060102|Strong=3509c|Type=pronominal 13 הֵרָגְעִ֖י רָגַע VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 1 parataxis _ Gloss=rest|Ref=JER_47:6!11|MId=o240470060111|Strong=7280|Frame=A0:240470060021;|Type=imperative 14-15 וָדֹֽמִּי _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 וָ וְ CCONJ _ _ 15 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_47:6!12|MId=o240470060121|Strong=2050b 15 דֹֽמִּי דָּמַם VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 1 conj _ Gloss=be.still|Ref=JER_47:6!12|MId=o240470060122|Strong=1826|Frame=A0:240470060021;|Type=imperative 16 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 15 punct _ Ref=JER_47:6!12 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | **not** תִשְׁקֹטִי *you will be inactive* | yiqtol · qal | חֶרֶב *O sword* | | | | | הֵאָֽסְפִי *gather yourself* | imperative · niphal | | חֶרֶב *O sword* | | | | הֵרָגְעִי *rest* | imperative · niphal | חֶרֶב *O sword* | | | | | דֹֽמִּי *be still* | imperative · qal | חֶרֶב *O sword* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
