# Malachi 3:19 מַלְאָכִי

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** day, proud, wicked · **What happens:** come, burn, work, be, set, say · **To what, where:** wickedness, stubble, sons, root · **Speech:** someone speaks in this verse

<!-- .vabout -->
This is Malachi 3:19 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 — day, proud, wicked — and what happens in the verse to wickedness, stubble, sons, root, 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 3 chapters of Malachi on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

[For, behold, the day cometh, it burneth as a furnace; and all the proud, and all that work wickedness, shall be stubble; and the day that cometh shall set them ablaze, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/MAL.67/)

## 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.
