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 — daughter, you, spoiler, thy — and what happens in the verse to Dibon, glory, thirst, thee, strongholds, 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. רְדִ֤י מִכָּבוֹד֙ וּשְׁבִ֣י בַצָּמָ֔א יֹשֶׁ֖בֶת בַּת־דִּיב֑וֹן כִּֽי־שֹׁדֵ֤ד מוֹאָב֙ עָ֣לָה בָ֔ךְ שִׁחֵ֖ת מִבְצָרָֽיִךְ׃ [O thou daughter that dwellest in Dibon, come down from thy glory, and sit in thirst; for the spoiler of Moab is come up against thee, he hath destroyed thy strongholds.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JER.1252/) ## 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:1150 # text = רְדִ֤י מִכָּבוֹד֙ וּשְׁבִ֣י בַצָּמָ֔א יֹשֶׁ֖בֶת בַּת־דִּיב֑וֹן כִּֽי־שֹׁדֵ֤ד מוֹאָב֙ עָ֣לָה בָ֔ךְ שִׁחֵ֖ת מִבְצָרָֽיִךְ׃ # verse = JER.48.18 1 רְדִ֤י יָרַד VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=come.down|Ref=JER_48:18!1|MId=o240480180011|Strong=3381|Frame=A0:240480180061;|Type=imperative 2-3 מִכָּבוֹד֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 2 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 3 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=JER_48:18!2|MId=o240480180021|Strong=4480 3 כָּבוֹד֙ כָּבוֹד NOUN _ Number=Sing 1 obl _ Gloss=honor|Ref=JER_48:18!2|MId=o240480180022|Strong=3519 4-5 וּשְׁבִ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 5 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_48:18!4|MId=o240480180041|Strong=2050b 5 שְׁבִ֣י יָשַׁב VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 1 conj _ Gloss=sit|Ref=JER_48:18!4|MId=o240480180042|Strong=3427|Frame=A0:240480180061;|Type=imperative 6-8 בַצָּמָ֔א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 בַ בְּ ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=JER_48:18!5|MId=o240480180051|Strong=0871a 7 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 8 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=JER_48:18!5|MId=o240480180051ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 8 צָּמָ֔א צָמָא NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 5 obl _ Gloss=thirst|Ref=JER_48:18!5|MId=o240480180052|Strong=6772 9 יֹשֶׁ֖בֶת יָשַׁב VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 1 parataxis _ Gloss=O.inhabitant[s]|Ref=JER_48:18!6|MId=o240480180061|Strong=3427|Type=participle_active 10 בַּת־ בַּת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 9 appos _ Gloss=of.the.daughter|Ref=JER_48:18!7|MId=o240480180071|Strong=1323|SpaceAfter=No 11 דִּיב֑וֹן דִּיבֹן PROPN _ _ 10 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Dibon|Ref=JER_48:18!8|MId=o240480180081|Strong=1769 12 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 15 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=JER_48:18!9|MId=o240480180091|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 13 שֹׁדֵ֤ד שָׁדַד VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 15 nsubj _ Gloss=the.destroyer|Ref=JER_48:18!10|MId=o240480180101|Strong=7703|Frame=A1:240480180111;|Type=participle_active 14 מוֹאָב֙ מוֹאָב PROPN _ _ 13 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Moab|Ref=JER_48:18!11|MId=o240480180111|Strong=4124 15 עָ֣לָה עָלָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 1 advcl _ Gloss=he.will.come.up|Ref=JER_48:18!12|MId=o240480180121|Strong=5927|Frame=A0:240480180101;|Type=qatal 16-17 בָ֔ךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 ב בְּ ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=JER_48:18!13|MId=o240480180131|Strong=0871a 17 ָ֔ךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 15 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=JER_48:18!13|MId=o240480180132|Strong=3509c|Type=pronominal 18 שִׁחֵ֖ת שָׁחַת VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=3 1 parataxis _ Gloss=he.will.ruin|Ref=JER_48:18!14|MId=o240480180141|Strong=7843|Frame=A0:240480180101;A1:240480180151;|Type=qatal 19-20 מִבְצָרָֽיִךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 מִבְצָרָֽי מִבְצָר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 18 obj _ Gloss=strongholds|Ref=JER_48:18!15|MId=o240480180151|Strong=4013 20 ִךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 19 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=JER_48:18!15|MId=o240480180152|Strong=3509c|Type=pronominal 21 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 20 punct _ Ref=JER_48:18!15 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: command - act: request - 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | רְדִי *come down* | imperative · qal | יֹשֶׁבֶת *O inhabitant\[s\]* | | | | | שְׁבִי *sit* | imperative · qal | יֹשֶׁבֶת *O inhabitant\[s\]* | | | | | שֹׁדֵד *the destroyer* | participle active · qal | | מוֹאָב *of Moab* | | | | עָלָה *he will come up* | qatal · qal | שֹׁדֵד *the destroyer* | | | | | שִׁחֵת *he will ruin* | qatal · piel | שֹׁדֵד *the destroyer* | מִבְצָרָֽי *strongholds* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
