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 — I, widow, land, man — and what happens in the verse to widow, nations, pleasant land, 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. וְאֵ֣סָעֲרֵ֗ם עַ֤ל כָּל־הַגּוֹיִם֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר לֹֽא־יְדָע֔וּם וְהָאָ֙רֶץ֙ נָשַׁ֣מָּה אַֽחֲרֵיהֶ֔ם מֵֽעֹבֵ֖ר וּמִשָּׁ֑ב וַיָּשִׂ֥ימוּ אֶֽרֶץ־חֶמְדָּ֖ה לְשַׁמָּֽה׃פ [but I will scatter them with a whirlwind among all the nations whom they have not known.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ZEC.99/) [Thus the land was desolate after them, so that no man passed through nor returned; for they laid the pleasant land desolate.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ZEC.100/) ## 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:97 # text = וְאֵ֣סָעֲרֵ֗ם עַ֤ל כָּל־הַגּוֹיִם֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר לֹֽא־יְדָע֔וּם וְהָאָ֙רֶץ֙ נָשַׁ֣מָּה אַֽחֲרֵיהֶ֔ם מֵֽעֹבֵ֖ר וּמִשָּׁ֑ב וַיָּשִׂ֥ימוּ אֶֽרֶץ־חֶמְדָּ֖ה לְשַׁמָּֽה׃פ # verse = ZEC.7.14 1-3 וְאֵ֣סָעֲרֵ֗ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ZEC_7:14!1|MId=o380070140011|Strong=2050b 2 אֵ֣סָעֲר סָעַר VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=1 0 root _ Gloss=I|Ref=ZEC_7:14!1|MId=o380070140012|Strong=5590|Frame=A0:380070130111;A1:380070140013;|Type=yiqtol 3 ֵ֗ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 2 obj _ Gloss=will.storm.them.away|Ref=ZEC_7:14!1|MId=o380070140013|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 4 עַ֤ל עַל ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=ZEC_7:14!2|MId=o380070140021|Strong=5921 5 כָּל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=all|Ref=ZEC_7:14!3|MId=o380070140031|Strong=3605|SpaceAfter=No 6-7 הַגּוֹיִם֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 7 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=ZEC_7:14!4|MId=o380070140041|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 7 גּוֹיִם֙ גּוֹי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 5 compound:smixut _ Gloss=nations|Ref=ZEC_7:14!4|MId=o380070140042|Strong=1471 8 אֲשֶׁ֣ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 10 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=ZEC_7:14!5|MId=o380070140051|Strong=0834|Type=relative 9 לֹֽא־ לֹא ADV _ _ 10 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=ZEC_7:14!6|MId=o380070140061|Strong=3808|Type=negative|SpaceAfter=No 10-11 יְדָע֔וּם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 יְדָע֔וּ יָדַע VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 5 acl:relcl _ Gloss=they|Ref=ZEC_7:14!7|MId=o380070140071|Strong=3045|Frame=A0:380070050041;380070050072;A1:380070140072;|Type=qatal 11 ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 10 obj _ Gloss=have.known.them|Ref=ZEC_7:14!7|MId=o380070140072|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 12-14 וְהָאָ֙רֶץ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 15 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ZEC_7:14!8|MId=o380070140081|Strong=2050b 13 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 14 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=ZEC_7:14!8|MId=o380070140082|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 14 אָ֙רֶץ֙ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 15 nsubj _ Gloss=land|Ref=ZEC_7:14!8|MId=o380070140083|Strong=0776 15 נָשַׁ֣מָּה שׁמם VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=it.was.desolate|Ref=ZEC_7:14!9|MId=o380070140091|Strong=8074|Frame=A1:380070140083;|Type=qatal 16-17 אַֽחֲרֵיהֶ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 אַֽחֲרֵי אַחַר ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=behind|Ref=ZEC_7:14!10|MId=o380070140101|Strong=0310 17 הֶ֔ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 15 obl _ Gloss=them|Ref=ZEC_7:14!10|MId=o380070140102|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 18-19 מֵֽעֹבֵ֖ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 מֵֽ מִן ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=ZEC_7:14!11|MId=o380070140111|Strong=4480 19 עֹבֵ֖ר עָבַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 15 advcl _ Gloss=[one.who].passes.through|Ref=ZEC_7:14!11|MId=o380070140112|Strong=5674|Type=participle_active 20-22 וּמִשָּׁ֑ב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 22 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ZEC_7:14!12|MId=o380070140121|Strong=2050b 21 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=ZEC_7:14!12|MId=o380070140122|Strong=4480 22 שָּׁ֑ב שׁוּב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 19 conj _ Gloss=[one.who].returns|Ref=ZEC_7:14!12|MId=o380070140123|Strong=7725|Type=participle_active 23-24 וַיָּשִׂ֥ימוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 24 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ZEC_7:14!13|MId=o380070140131|Strong=2050b 24 יָּשִׂ֥ימוּ שׂים VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=they.made|Ref=ZEC_7:14!13|MId=o380070140132|Strong=7760|Frame=A0:380070050041;380070050072;A1:380070140141;|Type=wayyiqtol 25 אֶֽרֶץ־ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 24 obj _ Gloss=a.land|Ref=ZEC_7:14!14|MId=o380070140141|Strong=0776|SpaceAfter=No 26 חֶמְדָּ֖ה חֶמְדָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 25 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.desire|Ref=ZEC_7:14!15|MId=o380070140151|Strong=2532 27-28 לְשַׁמָּֽה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 28 case _ Gloss=into|Ref=ZEC_7:14!16|MId=o380070140161|Strong=3807a 28 שַׁמָּֽה שַׁמָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 24 obl _ Gloss=a.waste|Ref=ZEC_7:14!16|MId=o380070140162|Strong=8047 29 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 28 punct _ Ref=ZEC_7:14!16|SpaceAfter=No 30 פ פ PUNCT _ _ 28 punct _ Ref=ZEC_7:14!16 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: promise - 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | אֵסָעֲר *I* | yiqtol · piel | | ֵם *will storm them away* | | | | **not** יְדָעוּ *they* | qatal · qal | | ם *have known them* | | | | נָשַׁמָּה *it was desolate* | qatal · niphal | | אָרֶץ *land* | | | | יָּשִׂימוּ *they made* | wayyiqtol · qal | | אֶֽרֶץ־ *a land* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
