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 — David — and what happens in the verse to houses, him, city, place, tent, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the English of the Jewish Publication Society's 1917 translation, each English sentence with a tree of its own. It is one of the 29 chapters of 1 Chronicles on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וַיַּֽעַשׂ־ל֥וֹ בָתִּ֖ים בְּעִ֣יר דָּוִ֑יד וַיָּ֤כֶן מָקוֹם֙ לַֽאֲר֣וֹן הָֽאֱלֹהִ֔ים וַיֶּט־ל֖וֹ אֹֽהֶל׃ [And David made him houses in the city of David; and he prepared a place for the ark of God, and pitched for it a tent.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/1CH.593/) ## 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:1CH:540 # text = וַיַּֽעַשׂ־ל֥וֹ בָתִּ֖ים בְּעִ֣יר דָּוִ֑יד וַיָּ֤כֶן מָקוֹם֙ לַֽאֲר֣וֹן הָֽאֱלֹהִ֔ים וַיֶּט־ל֖וֹ אֹֽהֶל׃ # verse = 1CH.15.1 1-2 וַיַּֽעַשׂ־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1CH_15:1!1|MId=o130150010011|Strong=2050b 2 יַּֽעַשׂ־ עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.made|Ref=1CH_15:1!1|MId=o130150010012|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:130140170031;A1:130150010031;|Type=wayyiqtol 3-4 ל֥וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 ל לְ ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=1CH_15:1!2|MId=o130150010021|Strong=3807a 4 ֥וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 2 obl _ Gloss=himself|Ref=1CH_15:1!2|MId=o130150010022|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 5 בָתִּ֖ים בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 2 obj _ Gloss=houses|Ref=1CH_15:1!3|MId=o130150010031|Strong=1004 6-7 בְּעִ֣יר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=1CH_15:1!4|MId=o130150010041|Strong=0871a 7 עִ֣יר עִיר NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=the.city|Ref=1CH_15:1!4|MId=o130150010042|Strong=5892 8 דָּוִ֑יד דָּוִד PROPN _ _ 7 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.David|Ref=1CH_15:1!5|MId=o130150010051|Strong=1732 9-10 וַיָּ֤כֶן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 10 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1CH_15:1!6|MId=o130150010061|Strong=2050b 10 יָּ֤כֶן כּוּן VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.prepared|Ref=1CH_15:1!6|MId=o130150010062|Strong=3559|Frame=AA:130150010051;A0:130150010071;|Type=wayyiqtol 11 מָקוֹם֙ מָקוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 10 obj _ Gloss=a.place|Ref=1CH_15:1!7|MId=o130150010071|Strong=4725 12-13 לַֽאֲר֣וֹן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 לַֽ לְ ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=1CH_15:1!8|MId=o130150010081|Strong=3807a 13 אֲר֣וֹן אֲרוֹן NOUN _ Number=Sing 10 obl _ Gloss=the.ark|Ref=1CH_15:1!8|MId=o130150010082|Strong=0727 14-15 הָֽאֱלֹהִ֔ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 הָֽ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 15 det _ Gloss=of.(the)|Ref=1CH_15:1!9|MId=o130150010091|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 15 אֱלֹהִ֔ים אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 13 compound:smixut _ Gloss=God|Ref=1CH_15:1!9|MId=o130150010092|Strong=0430 16-17 וַיֶּט־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 17 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1CH_15:1!10|MId=o130150010101|Strong=2050b 17 יֶּט־ נָטָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.pitched|Ref=1CH_15:1!10|MId=o130150010102|Strong=5186|Frame=A0:130150010051;A1:130150010121;|Type=wayyiqtol 18-19 ל֖וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 ל לְ ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=1CH_15:1!11|MId=o130150010111|Strong=3807a 19 ֖וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 17 obl _ Gloss=it|Ref=1CH_15:1!11|MId=o130150010112|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 20 אֹֽהֶל אֹהֶל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 17 obj _ Gloss=a.tent|Ref=1CH_15:1!12|MId=o130150010121|Strong=0168|SpaceAfter=No 21 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 20 punct _ Ref=1CH_15:1!12 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: narrate - voice: narrator - speech: narration - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יַּֽעַשׂ־ *he made* | wayyiqtol · qal | | בָתִּים *houses* | | | | יָּכֶן *he prepared* | wayyiqtol · hiphil | מָקוֹם *a place* | | | דָּוִיד *of David* | | יֶּט־ *he pitched* | wayyiqtol · qal | דָּוִיד *of David* | אֹֽהֶל *a tent* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
