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 — inhabitants, us, I — and what happens in the verse to another, us, favour, LORD, 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. וְֽהָלְכ֡וּ יֹשְׁבֵי֩ אַחַ֨ת אֶל־אַחַ֜ת לֵאמֹ֗ר נֵלְכָ֤ה הָלוֹךְ֙ לְחַלּוֹת֙ אֶת־פְּנֵ֣י יְהוָ֔ה וּלְבַקֵּ֖שׁ אֶת־יְהוָ֣ה צְבָא֑וֹת אֵלְכָ֖ה גַּם־אָֽנִי׃ [and the inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying: Let us go speedily to entreat the favour of the LORD, and to seek the LORD of hosts; I will go also.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ZEC.121/) ## 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:118 # text = וְֽהָלְכ֡וּ יֹשְׁבֵי֩ אַחַ֨ת אֶל־אַחַ֜ת לֵאמֹ֗ר נֵלְכָ֤ה הָלוֹךְ֙ לְחַלּוֹת֙ אֶת־פְּנֵ֣י יְהוָ֔ה וּלְבַקֵּ֖שׁ אֶת־יְהוָ֣ה צְבָא֑וֹת אֵלְכָ֖ה גַּם־אָֽנִי׃ # verse = ZEC.8.21 1-2 וְֽהָלְכ֡וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְֽ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ZEC_8:21!1|MId=o380080210011|Strong=2050b 2 הָלְכ֡וּ הָלַךְ VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.will.go|Ref=ZEC_8:21!1|MId=o380080210012|Strong=1980|Frame=A0:380080210021;|Type=qatal 3 יֹשְׁבֵי֩ יָשַׁב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur 2 nsubj _ Gloss=[the].inhabitants|Ref=ZEC_8:21!2|MId=o380080210021|Strong=3427|Type=participle_active 4 אַחַ֨ת אֶחָד NUM _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 3 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.one.[city]|Ref=ZEC_8:21!3|MId=o380080210031|Strong=0259|Type=cardinal_number 5 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=ZEC_8:21!4|MId=o380080210041|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 6 אַחַ֜ת אֶחָד NUM _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=one.[city]|Ref=ZEC_8:21!5|MId=o380080210051|Strong=0259|Type=cardinal_number 7-8 לֵאמֹ֗ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 לֵ לְ ADP _ ExtPos=SCONJ 9 mark _ Gloss=(cmp)|Ref=ZEC_8:21!6|MId=o380080210061|Strong=3807a 8 אמֹ֗ר אָמַר VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 7 fixed _ Gloss=|Ref=ZEC_8:21!6|MId=o380080210062|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:380080210021;|Type=infinitive_construct 9 נֵלְכָ֤ה הלך VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=1 2 advcl _ Gloss=let.us.go|Ref=ZEC_8:21!7|MId=o380080210071|Strong=1980|Frame=A0:380080210021;380080210051;|Type=cohortative 10 הָלוֹךְ֙ הָלַךְ VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 9 obl:npmod _ Gloss=indeed.(go)|Ref=ZEC_8:21!8|MId=o380080210081|Strong=1980|Type=infinitive_absolute 11-12 לְחַלּוֹת֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=ZEC_8:21!9|MId=o380080210091|Strong=3807a 12 חַלּוֹת֙ חָלָה VERB _ HebBinyan=PIEL 9 advcl _ Gloss=entreat|Ref=ZEC_8:21!9|MId=o380080210092|Strong=2470a|Frame=A0:380080210021;380080210051;|Type=infinitive_construct 13 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=ZEC_8:21!10|MId=o380080210101|Strong=0854|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 14 פְּנֵ֣י פָּנֶה NOUN _ Number=Plur 12 obl _ Gloss=the.face|Ref=ZEC_8:21!11|MId=o380080210111|Strong=6440 15 יְהוָ֔ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 14 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=ZEC_8:21!12|MId=o380080210121|Strong=3068 16-18 וּלְבַקֵּ֖שׁ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 18 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ZEC_8:21!13|MId=o380080210131|Strong=2050b 17 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=ZEC_8:21!13|MId=o380080210132|Strong=3807a 18 בַקֵּ֖שׁ בָּקַשׁ VERB _ HebBinyan=PIEL 12 conj _ Gloss=seek|Ref=ZEC_8:21!13|MId=o380080210133|Strong=1245|Frame=A0:380080210021;380080210051;A1:380080210151;|Type=infinitive_construct 19 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=ZEC_8:21!14|MId=o380080210141|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 20 יְהוָ֣ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 18 obj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=ZEC_8:21!15|MId=o380080210151|Strong=3068 21 צְבָא֑וֹת צָבָא NOUN _ Number=Plur 20 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.hosts|Ref=ZEC_8:21!16|MId=o380080210161|Strong=6635 22 אֵלְכָ֖ה הלך VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 2 parataxis _ Gloss=I.will.go|Ref=ZEC_8:21!17|MId=o380080210171|Strong=1980|Frame=A0:380080210191;|Type=yiqtol 23 גַּם־ גַּם ADV _ _ 24 advmod _ Gloss=also|Ref=ZEC_8:21!18|MId=o380080210181|Strong=1571|Type=affirmation|SpaceAfter=No 24 אָֽנִי אֲנִי PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 22 nsubj _ Gloss=I|Ref=ZEC_8:21!19|MId=o380080210191|Strong=0589|Type=personal|SpaceAfter=No 25 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 24 punct _ Ref=ZEC_8:21!19 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: command - act: request - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: no - the frame alone: decl · assert · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | הָלְכוּ *they will go* | qatal · qal | יֹשְׁבֵי *\[the\] inhabitants* | | | | | אמֹר | infinitive construct · qal | יֹשְׁבֵי *\[the\] inhabitants* | | | | | נֵלְכָה *let us go* | cohortative · qal | יֹשְׁבֵי *\[the\] inhabitants* + אַחַת *one \[city\]* | | | | | חַלּוֹת *entreat* | infinitive construct · piel | יֹשְׁבֵי *\[the\] inhabitants* + אַחַת *one \[city\]* | | | | | בַקֵּשׁ *seek* | infinitive construct · piel | יֹשְׁבֵי *\[the\] inhabitants* + אַחַת *one \[city\]* | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | | | אֵלְכָה *I will go* | yiqtol · qal | אָֽנִי *I* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
