# Jeremiah 7:20 יִרְמְיָהוּ

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** Lord GOD, land, Mine, My · **What happens:** say, pour out, burn, not quench, anger, infuriate · **To what, where:** anger · **Speech:** someone speaks in this verse

<!-- .vabout -->
This is Jeremiah 7:20 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 — Lord GOD, land, Mine, My — and what happens in the verse to anger, 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.

[Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, Mine anger and My fury shall be poured out upon this place, upon man, and upon beast, and upon the trees of the field, and upon the fruit of the land; and it shall burn, and shall not be quenched.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JER.222/)

## The tree {#tree}

<!-- .note -->
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.
