Zechariah 13:5 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/ZEC.13.5/) [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/) / [Zechariah](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/ZEC/) / [chapter 13](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/ZEC/13/) / 13:5 # Zechariah 13:5 זְכַרְיָה **Who acts:** LORD, I · **What happens:** say, be, make · **To what, where:** prophet, tiller, I, youth · **Speech:** someone speaks in this verse This is Zechariah 13:5 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, I — and what happens in the verse to prophet, tiller, I, youth, 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 14 chapters of Zechariah on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וְאָמַ֕ר לֹ֥א נָבִ֖יא אָנֹ֑כִי אִישׁ־עֹבֵ֤ד אֲדָמָה֙ אָנֹ֔כִי כִּ֥י אָדָ֖ם הִקְנַ֥נִי מִנְּעוּרָֽי׃ [but he shall say: 'I am no prophet, I am a tiller of the ground; for I have been made a bondman from my youth.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ZEC.193/) ## 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:ZEC:185 # text = וְאָמַ֕ר לֹ֥א נָבִ֖יא אָנֹ֑כִי אִישׁ־עֹבֵ֤ד אֲדָמָה֙ אָנֹ֔כִי כִּ֥י אָדָ֖ם הִקְנַ֥נִי מִנְּעוּרָֽי׃ # verse = ZEC.13.5 1-2 וְאָמַ֕ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ZEC_13:5!1|MId=o380130050011|Strong=2050b 2 אָמַ֕ר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.will.say|Ref=ZEC_13:5!1|MId=o380130050012|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:380130040052;|Type=weqatal 3 לֹ֥א לֹא ADV _ _ 4 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=ZEC_13:5!2|MId=o380130050021|Strong=3808|Type=negative 4 נָבִ֖יא נָבִיא NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 ccomp _ Gloss=[am].a.prophet|Ref=ZEC_13:5!3|MId=o380130050031|Strong=5030 5 אָנֹ֑כִי אָנֹכִי PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 4 nsubj _ Gloss=I|Ref=ZEC_13:5!4|MId=o380130050041|Strong=0595|Type=personal 6 אִישׁ־ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 4 parataxis _ Gloss=[am].a.man|Ref=ZEC_13:5!5|MId=o380130050051|Strong=0376|SpaceAfter=No 7 עֹבֵ֤ד עָבַד VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 6 acl:relcl _ Gloss=[who].tills|Ref=ZEC_13:5!6|MId=o380130050061|Strong=5647|Frame=A0:380130050051;A1:380130050071;|Type=participle_active 8 אֲדָמָה֙ אֲדָמָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 7 obj _ Gloss=ground|Ref=ZEC_13:5!7|MId=o380130050071|Strong=0127 9 אָנֹ֔כִי אָנֹכִי PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 6 nsubj _ Gloss=I|Ref=ZEC_13:5!8|MId=o380130050081|Strong=0595|Type=personal 10 כִּ֥י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 12 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=ZEC_13:5!9|MId=o380130050091|Strong=3588 11 אָדָ֖ם אָדָם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 12 nsubj _ Gloss=someone|Ref=ZEC_13:5!10|MId=o380130050101|Strong=0120 12-13 הִקְנַ֥נִי _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 הִקְנ קָנָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 4 advcl _ Gloss=he|Ref=ZEC_13:5!11|MId=o380130050111|Strong=7069|Frame=AA:380130050101;A0:380130050112;|Type=qatal 13 ַ֥נִי הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 12 obj _ Gloss=sold.me|Ref=ZEC_13:5!11|MId=o380130050112|Strong=5204a|Type=pronominal 14-16 מִנְּעוּרָֽי _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=since|Ref=ZEC_13:5!12|MId=o380130050121|Strong=4480 15 נְּעוּר נְעוּרִים NOUN _ Number=Plur 12 obl _ Gloss=youth(s)|Ref=ZEC_13:5!12|MId=o380130050122|Strong=5271 16 ָֽי הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 15 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=ZEC_13:5!12|MId=o380130050123|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 17 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 16 punct _ Ref=ZEC_13:5!12 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: yes - the frame alone: decl · assert · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | אָמַר *he will say* | weqatal · qal | | | | | | עֹבֵד *\[who\] tills* | participle active · qal | אִישׁ־ *\[am\] a man* | אֲדָמָה *ground* | | | | הִקְנ *he* | qatal · hiphil | ַנִי *sold me* | | | אָדָם *someone* | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
