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, city — and what happens in the verse to eyes, 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. כֹּ֤ה אָמַר֙ יְהוָ֣ה צְבָא֔וֹת כִּ֣י יִפָּלֵ֗א בְּעֵינֵי֙ שְׁאֵרִית֙ הָעָ֣ם הַזֶּ֔ה בַּיָּמִ֖ים הָהֵ֑ם גַּם־בְּעֵינַי֙ יִפָּלֵ֔א נְאֻ֖ם יְהוָ֥ה צְבָאֽוֹת׃פ [Thus saith the LORD of hosts: If it be marvellous in the eyes of the remnant of this people in those days, should it also be marvellous in Mine eyes? saith the LORD of hosts.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ZEC.106/) ## 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:103 # text = כֹּ֤ה אָמַר֙ יְהוָ֣ה צְבָא֔וֹת כִּ֣י יִפָּלֵ֗א בְּעֵינֵי֙ שְׁאֵרִית֙ הָעָ֣ם הַזֶּ֔ה בַּיָּמִ֖ים הָהֵ֑ם גַּם־בְּעֵינַי֙ יִפָּלֵ֔א נְאֻ֖ם יְהוָ֥ה צְבָאֽוֹת׃פ # verse = ZEC.8.6 1 כֹּ֤ה כֹּה ADV _ _ 2 advmod _ Gloss=thus|Ref=ZEC_8:6!1|MId=o380080060011|Strong=3541 2 אָמַר֙ אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.says|Ref=ZEC_8:6!2|MId=o380080060021|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:380080060031;|Type=qatal 3 יְהוָ֣ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 2 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=ZEC_8:6!3|MId=o380080060031|Strong=3068 4 צְבָא֔וֹת צָבָא NOUN _ Number=Plur 3 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.hosts|Ref=ZEC_8:6!4|MId=o380080060041|Strong=6635 5 כִּ֣י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 6 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=ZEC_8:6!5|MId=o380080060051|Strong=3588 6 יִפָּלֵ֗א פָּלָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 advcl _ Gloss=it.will.be.difficult|Ref=ZEC_8:6!6|MId=o380080060061|Strong=6381|Type=yiqtol 7-8 בְּעֵינֵי֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=ZEC_8:6!7|MId=o380080060071|Strong=0871a 8 עֵינֵי֙ עַיִן NOUN _ Number=Dual 6 obl _ Gloss=the.eyes|Ref=ZEC_8:6!7|MId=o380080060072|Strong=5869 9 שְׁאֵרִית֙ שְׁאֵרִית NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 8 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.the.remnant|Ref=ZEC_8:6!8|MId=o380080060081|Strong=7611 10-11 הָעָ֣ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 11 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=ZEC_8:6!9|MId=o380080060091|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 11 עָ֣ם עַם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.people|Ref=ZEC_8:6!9|MId=o380080060092|Strong=5971 12-13 הַזֶּ֔ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 13 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=ZEC_8:6!10|MId=o380080060101|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 13 זֶּ֔ה זֶה DET _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|PronType=Dem 11 det _ Gloss=this|Ref=ZEC_8:6!10|MId=o380080060102|Strong=2088|Type=demonstrative 14-16 בַּיָּמִ֖ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=ZEC_8:6!11|MId=o380080060111|Strong=0871a 15 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 16 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=ZEC_8:6!11|MId=o380080060111ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 16 יָּמִ֖ים יוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 6 obl _ Gloss=days|Ref=ZEC_8:6!11|MId=o380080060112|Strong=3117 17-18 הָהֵ֑ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 18 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=ZEC_8:6!12|MId=o380080060121|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 18 הֵ֑ם הֵם PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 16 det _ Gloss=those|Ref=ZEC_8:6!12|MId=o380080060122|Strong=1992|Type=personal 19 גַּם־ גַּם ADV _ _ 21 advmod _ Gloss=also|Ref=ZEC_8:6!13|MId=o380080060131|Strong=1571|Type=affirmation|SpaceAfter=No 20-22 בְּעֵינַי֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 21 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=ZEC_8:6!14|MId=o380080060141|Strong=0871a 21 עֵינ עַיִן NOUN _ Number=Dual 23 obl _ Gloss=eyes|Ref=ZEC_8:6!14|MId=o380080060142|Strong=5869 22 ַי֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 21 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=ZEC_8:6!14|MId=o380080060143|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 23 יִפָּלֵ֔א פָּלָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 parataxis _ Gloss=will.it.be.difficult?|Ref=ZEC_8:6!15|MId=o380080060151|Strong=6381|Type=yiqtol 24 נְאֻ֖ם נְאֻם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 parataxis _ Gloss=the.utterance|Ref=ZEC_8:6!16|MId=o380080060161|Strong=5002 25 יְהוָ֥ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 24 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=ZEC_8:6!17|MId=o380080060171|Strong=3068 26 צְבָאֽוֹת צָבָא NOUN _ Number=Plur 25 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.hosts|Ref=ZEC_8:6!18|MId=o380080060181|Strong=6635|SpaceAfter=No 27 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=ZEC_8:6!18|SpaceAfter=No 28 פ פ PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=ZEC_8:6!18 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | אָמַר *he says* | qatal · qal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
