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, Thy — and what happens in the verse to wisdom, regard, rod, ye, born, 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. ק֤וֹל יְהוָה֙ לָעִ֣יר יִקְרָ֔א וְתוּשִׁיָּ֖ה יִרְאֶ֣ה שְׁמֶ֑ךָ שִׁמְע֥וּ מַטֶּ֖ה וּמִ֥י יְעָדָֽהּ׃ [Hark! the LORD crieth unto the city — and it is wisdom to have regard for Thy name — hear ye the rod, and who hath appointed it.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/MIC.90/) ## 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:77 # text = ק֤וֹל יְהוָה֙ לָעִ֣יר יִקְרָ֔א וְתוּשִׁיָּ֖ה יִרְאֶ֣ה שְׁמֶ֑ךָ שִׁמְע֥וּ מַטֶּ֖ה וּמִ֥י יְעָדָֽהּ׃ # verse = MIC.6.9 1 ק֤וֹל קוֹל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 nsubj _ Gloss=the.voice|Ref=MIC_6:9!1|MId=o330060090011|Strong=6963 2 יְהוָה֙ יהוה PROPN _ _ 1 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=MIC_6:9!2|MId=o330060090021|Strong=3068 3-5 לָעִ֣יר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 לָ לְ ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=MIC_6:9!3|MId=o330060090031|Strong=3807a 4 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 5 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=MIC_6:9!3|MId=o330060090031ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 5 עִ֣יר עִיר NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 6 obl _ Gloss=city|Ref=MIC_6:9!3|MId=o330060090032|Strong=5892 6 יִקְרָ֔א קָרָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=it.calls.out|Ref=MIC_6:9!4|MId=o330060090041|Strong=7121|Frame=A0:330060090011;|Type=yiqtol 7-8 וְתוּשִׁיָּ֖ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 9 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=MIC_6:9!5|MId=o330060090051|Strong=2050b 8 תוּשִׁיָּ֖ה תּוּשִׁיָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 9 nsubj _ Gloss=success|Ref=MIC_6:9!5|MId=o330060090052|Strong=8454 9 יִרְאֶ֣ה ראה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 6 conj _ Gloss=it.will.see|Ref=MIC_6:9!6|MId=o330060090061|Strong=7200|Frame=A0:330060090052;A1:330060090071;|Type=yiqtol 10-11 שְׁמֶ֑ךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 שְׁמ שֵׁם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 obj _ Gloss=name|Ref=MIC_6:9!7|MId=o330060090071|Strong=8034 11 ֶ֑ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 10 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=MIC_6:9!7|MId=o330060090072|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 12 שִׁמְע֥וּ שָׁמַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 6 parataxis _ Gloss=hear|Ref=MIC_6:9!8|MId=o330060090081|Strong=8085|Frame=A0:330060090033;A1:330060090091;330060090102;|Type=imperative 13 מַטֶּ֖ה מַטֶּה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 12 obj _ Gloss=O.tribe|Ref=MIC_6:9!9|MId=o330060090091|Strong=4294 14-15 וּמִ֥י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 15 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=MIC_6:9!10|MId=o330060090101|Strong=2050b 15 מִ֥י מִי PRON _ PronType=Int 13 conj _ Gloss=whoever|Ref=MIC_6:9!10|MId=o330060090102|Strong=4310|Type=interrogative 16-17 יְעָדָֽהּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 יְעָד יָעַד VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 15 acl _ Gloss=he|Ref=MIC_6:9!11|MId=o330060090111|Strong=3259|Frame=A0:330060090102;A1:330060090112;|Type=qatal 17 ָֽהּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 16 obj _ Gloss=appointed.it|Ref=MIC_6:9!11|MId=o330060090112|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 18 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 17 punct _ Ref=MIC_6:9!11 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יִקְרָא *it calls out* | yiqtol · qal | קוֹל *the voice* | | | | | יִרְאֶה *it will see* | yiqtol · qal | תוּשִׁיָּה *success* | שְׁמ *name* | | | | שִׁמְעוּ *hear* | imperative · qal | | מַטֶּה *O tribe* + מִי *whoever* | | | | יְעָד *he* | qatal · qal | מִי *whoever* | ָֽהּ *appointed it* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
