Jeremiah 51:26 in Hebrew with its dependency tree, Targum Jonathan, JPS 1917 and the pragmatics of every clause. --- [Mova](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) · [this page in HTML](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/JER.51.26/) [home](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) / [corpora](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/) / [Tanakh](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/tanakh/) / [Nevi'im](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/) / [Jeremiah](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/JER/) / [chapter 51](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/JER/51/) / 51:26 # Jeremiah 51:26 יִרְמְיָהוּ **Who acts:** rocks, thou, LORD · **What happens:** not take, be, say · **To what, where:** thee · **Speech:** someone speaks in this verse This is Jeremiah 51:26 from Mova's open Bible corpus, the Tanakh in three languages (Nevi'im — the Prophets). 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 — rocks, thou, LORD — and what happens in the verse to thee, 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. וְלֹֽא־יִקְח֤וּ מִמְּךָ֙ אֶ֣בֶן לְפִנָּ֔ה וְאֶ֖בֶן לְמֽוֹסָד֑וֹת כִּֽי־שִׁמְמ֥וֹת עוֹלָ֛ם תִּֽהְיֶ֖ה נְאֻם־יְהוָֽה׃ [And they shall not take of thee a stone for a corner, nor a stone for foundations; but thou shalt be desolate for ever, saith the LORD.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JER.1403/) ## 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:1290 # text = וְלֹֽא־יִקְח֤וּ מִמְּךָ֙ אֶ֣בֶן לְפִנָּ֔ה וְאֶ֖בֶן לְמֽוֹסָד֑וֹת כִּֽי־שִׁמְמ֥וֹת עוֹלָ֛ם תִּֽהְיֶ֖ה נְאֻם־יְהוָֽה׃ # verse = JER.51.26 1-2 וְלֹֽא־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 3 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_51:26!1|MId=o240510260011|Strong=2050b 2 לֹֽא־ לֹא ADV _ _ 3 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=JER_51:26!1|MId=o240510260012|Strong=3808|Type=negative 3 יִקְח֤וּ לָקַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=people.will.take|Ref=JER_51:26!2|MId=o240510260021|Strong=3947|Frame=A0:;A1:240510260041;240510260062;|Type=yiqtol 4-5 מִמְּךָ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 מִמּ מִן ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=JER_51:26!3|MId=o240510260031|Strong=4480 5 ְךָ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 3 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=JER_51:26!3|MId=o240510260032|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 6 אֶ֣בֶן אֶבֶן NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 3 obj _ Gloss=stone|Ref=JER_51:26!4|MId=o240510260041|Strong=0068 7-8 לְפִנָּ֔ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=JER_51:26!5|MId=o240510260051|Strong=3807a 8 פִנָּ֔ה פִּנָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 6 nmod _ Gloss=a.corner|Ref=JER_51:26!5|MId=o240510260052|Strong=6438 9-10 וְאֶ֖בֶן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 10 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_51:26!6|MId=o240510260061|Strong=2050b 10 אֶ֖בֶן אֶבֶן NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 6 conj _ Gloss=stone|Ref=JER_51:26!6|MId=o240510260062|Strong=0068 11-12 לְמֽוֹסָד֑וֹת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=JER_51:26!7|MId=o240510260071|Strong=3807a 12 מֽוֹסָד֑וֹת מוֹסָדָה NOUN _ Number=Plur 10 nmod _ Gloss=foundations|Ref=JER_51:26!7|MId=o240510260072|Strong=4146 13 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 14 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=JER_51:26!8|MId=o240510260081|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 14 שִׁמְמ֥וֹת שְׁמָמָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 3 advcl _ Gloss=wastes|Ref=JER_51:26!9|MId=o240510260091|Strong=8077 15 עוֹלָ֛ם עוֹלָם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 14 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.perpetuity|Ref=JER_51:26!10|MId=o240510260101|Strong=5769 16 תִּֽהְיֶ֖ה הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 14 cop _ Gloss=you.will.be|Ref=JER_51:26!11|MId=o240510260111|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:240510250031;|Type=yiqtol 17 נְאֻם־ נְאֻם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 parataxis _ Gloss=the.utterance|Ref=JER_51:26!12|MId=o240510260121|Strong=5002|SpaceAfter=No 18 יְהוָֽה יהוה PROPN _ _ 17 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=JER_51:26!13|MId=o240510260131|Strong=3068|SpaceAfter=No 19 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 18 punct _ Ref=JER_51:26!13 ``` ## 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** יִקְחוּ *people will take* | yiqtol · qal | | אֶבֶן *stone* + אֶבֶן *stone* | | | | תִּֽהְיֶה *you will be* | yiqtol · qal | | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
