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 — bones, Israel — and what happens in the verse to bones, face, evil, doings, 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 7 chapters of Micah on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. אָ֚ז יִזְעֲק֣וּ אֶל־יְהוָ֔ה וְלֹ֥א יַעֲנֶ֖ה אוֹתָ֑ם וְיַסְתֵּ֨ר פָּנָ֤יו מֵהֶם֙ בָּעֵ֣ת הַהִ֔יא כַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר הֵרֵ֖עוּ מַעַלְלֵיהֶֽם׃פ [Then shall they cry unto the LORD, but He will not answer them; yea, He will hide His face from them at that time, according as they have wrought evil in their doings.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/MIC.39/) ## 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:MIC:32 # text = אָ֚ז יִזְעֲק֣וּ אֶל־יְהוָ֔ה וְלֹ֥א יַעֲנֶ֖ה אוֹתָ֑ם וְיַסְתֵּ֨ר פָּנָ֤יו מֵהֶם֙ בָּעֵ֣ת הַהִ֔יא כַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר הֵרֵ֖עוּ מַעַלְלֵיהֶֽם׃פ # verse = MIC.3.4 1 אָ֚ז אָז ADV _ _ 2 advmod _ Gloss=then|Ref=MIC_3:4!1|MId=o330030040011|Strong=0227 2 יִזְעֲק֣וּ זָעַק VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.will.cry.out|Ref=MIC_3:4!2|MId=o330030040021|Strong=2199|Frame=A0:330030010041;|Type=yiqtol 3 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=MIC_3:4!3|MId=o330030040031|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 4 יְהוָ֔ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 2 obl _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=MIC_3:4!4|MId=o330030040041|Strong=3068 5-6 וְלֹ֥א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 7 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=MIC_3:4!5|MId=o330030040051|Strong=2050b 6 לֹ֥א לֹא ADV _ _ 7 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=MIC_3:4!5|MId=o330030040052|Strong=3808|Type=negative 7 יַעֲנֶ֖ה עָנָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.will.answer|Ref=MIC_3:4!6|MId=o330030040061|Strong=6030|Frame=A0:330030040041;A1:330030040072;|Type=yiqtol 8-9 אוֹתָ֑ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 אוֹת אֵת ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=|Ref=MIC_3:4!7|MId=o330030040071|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 9 ָ֑ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 7 obj _ Gloss=them|Ref=MIC_3:4!7|MId=o330030040072|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 10-11 וְיַסְתֵּ֨ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 11 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=MIC_3:4!8|MId=o330030040081|Strong=2050b 11 יַסְתֵּ֨ר סָתַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.will.hide|Ref=MIC_3:4!8|MId=o330030040082|Strong=5641|Frame=AA:330030040041;A0:330030040091;|Type=yiqtol 12-13 פָּנָ֤יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 פָּנָ֤י פָּנֶה NOUN _ Number=Plur 11 obj _ Gloss=face|Ref=MIC_3:4!9|MId=o330030040091|Strong=6440 13 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 12 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=MIC_3:4!9|MId=o330030040092|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 14-15 מֵהֶם֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 מֵ מִן ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=MIC_3:4!10|MId=o330030040101|Strong=4480 15 הֶם֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 11 obl _ Gloss=them|Ref=MIC_3:4!10|MId=o330030040102|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 16-18 בָּעֵ֣ת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 בָּ בְּ ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=at|Ref=MIC_3:4!11|MId=o330030040111|Strong=0871a 17 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 18 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=MIC_3:4!11|MId=o330030040111ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 18 עֵ֣ת עֵת NOUN _ Number=Sing 11 obl _ Gloss=time|Ref=MIC_3:4!11|MId=o330030040112|Strong=6256 19-20 הַהִ֔יא _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 20 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=MIC_3:4!12|MId=o330030040121|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 20 הִ֔יא הִיא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 18 det _ Gloss=that|Ref=MIC_3:4!12|MId=o330030040122|Strong=1931a|Type=personal 21-22 כַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 כַּ כְּ ADP _ _ 11 obl _ Gloss=since|Ref=MIC_3:4!13|MId=o330030040131|Strong=3509a 22 אֲשֶׁ֥ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 23 mark _ Gloss=|Ref=MIC_3:4!13|MId=o330030040132|Strong=0834|Type=relative 23 הֵרֵ֖עוּ רָעַע VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Plur|Person=3 21 acl:relcl _ Gloss=they.have.made.evil|Ref=MIC_3:4!14|MId=o330030040141|Strong=7489|Frame=AA:330030010041;A0:330030040151;|Type=qatal 24-25 מַעַלְלֵיהֶֽם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 מַעַלְלֵי מַעֲלָל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 23 obj _ Gloss=deeds|Ref=MIC_3:4!15|MId=o330030040151|Strong=4611 25 הֶֽם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 24 nmod:poss _ Gloss=their|Ref=MIC_3:4!15|MId=o330030040152|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 26 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 25 punct _ Ref=MIC_3:4!15|SpaceAfter=No 27 פ פ PUNCT _ _ 25 punct _ Ref=MIC_3:4!15 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יִזְעֲקוּ *they will cry out* | yiqtol · qal | | | | | | **not** יַעֲנֶה *he will answer* | yiqtol · qal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | ָם *them* | | | | יַסְתֵּר *he will hide* | yiqtol · hiphil | פָּנָי *face* | | | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | הֵרֵעוּ *they have made evil* | qatal · hiphil | מַעַלְלֵי *deeds* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
