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 — Thou, servant — and what happens in the verse to servant, house, God, heart, 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. כִּ֣י ׀ אַתָּ֣ה אֱלֹהַ֗י גָּלִ֙יתָ֙ אֶת־אֹ֣זֶן עַבְדְּךָ֔ לִבְנ֥וֹת ל֖וֹ בָּ֑יִת עַל־כֵּן֙ מָצָ֣א עַבְדְּךָ֔ לְהִתְפַּלֵּ֖ל לְפָנֶֽיךָ׃ [For Thou, O my God, hast revealed to Thy servant that Thou wilt build him a house; therefore hath Thy servant taken heart to pray before Thee.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/1CH.691/) ## 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:636 # text = כִּ֣י ׀ אַתָּ֣ה אֱלֹהַ֗י גָּלִ֙יתָ֙ אֶת־אֹ֣זֶן עַבְדְּךָ֔ לִבְנ֥וֹת ל֖וֹ בָּ֑יִת עַל־כֵּן֙ מָצָ֣א עַבְדְּךָ֔ לְהִתְפַּלֵּ֖ל לְפָנֶֽיךָ׃ # verse = 1CH.17.25 1 כִּ֣י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 6 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=1CH_17:25!1|MId=o130170250011|Strong=3588 2 ׀ ׀ PUNCT _ _ 1 punct _ Ref=1CH_17:25!1 3 אַתָּ֣ה אַתָּה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 6 nsubj _ Gloss=you|Ref=1CH_17:25!2|MId=o130170250021|Strong=0859|Type=personal 4-5 אֱלֹהַ֗י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 אֱלֹה אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 6 dislocated _ Gloss=my.God|Ref=1CH_17:25!3|MId=o130170250031|Strong=0430 5 ַ֗י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 4 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=1CH_17:25!3|MId=o130170250032|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 6 גָּלִ֙יתָ֙ גָּלָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=you.have.uncovered|Ref=1CH_17:25!4|MId=o130170250041|Strong=1540|Frame=A0:130170250021;A1:130170250061;|Type=qatal 7 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=1CH_17:25!5|MId=o130170250051|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 8 אֹ֣זֶן אֹזֶן NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 6 obj _ Gloss=the.ear|Ref=1CH_17:25!6|MId=o130170250061|Strong=0241 9-10 עַבְדְּךָ֔ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 עַבְדּ עֶבֶד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 compound:smixut _ Gloss=your.servant|Ref=1CH_17:25!7|MId=o130170250071|Strong=5650 10 ְךָ֔ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 9 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=1CH_17:25!7|MId=o130170250072|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 11-12 לִבְנ֥וֹת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=1CH_17:25!8|MId=o130170250081|Strong=3807a 12 בְנ֥וֹת בָּנָה VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 6 advcl _ Gloss=build|Ref=1CH_17:25!8|MId=o130170250082|Strong=1129|Frame=A0:130170250031;A1:130170250101;|Type=infinitive_construct 13-14 ל֖וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 ל לְ ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=1CH_17:25!9|MId=o130170250091|Strong=3807a 14 ֖וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 12 obl _ Gloss=him|Ref=1CH_17:25!9|MId=o130170250092|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 15 בָּ֑יִת בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 12 obj _ Gloss=a.house|Ref=1CH_17:25!10|MId=o130170250101|Strong=1004 16 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=therefore|Ref=1CH_17:25!11|MId=o130170250111|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 17 כֵּן֙ כֵּן ADV _ _ 6 conj _ Gloss=|Ref=1CH_17:25!12|MId=o130170250121|Strong=3651|Type=demonstrative 18 מָצָ֣א מָצָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 6 parataxis _ Gloss=he.has.found|Ref=1CH_17:25!13|MId=o130170250131|Strong=4672|Frame=A0:130170250141;|Type=qatal 19-20 עַבְדְּךָ֔ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 עַבְדּ עֶבֶד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 18 nsubj _ Gloss=servant|Ref=1CH_17:25!14|MId=o130170250141|Strong=5650 20 ְךָ֔ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 19 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=1CH_17:25!14|MId=o130170250142|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 21-22 לְהִתְפַּלֵּ֖ל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=1CH_17:25!15|MId=o130170250151|Strong=3807a 22 הִתְפַּלֵּ֖ל פָּלַל VERB _ HebBinyan=HITHPAEL 18 advcl _ Gloss=pray|Ref=1CH_17:25!15|MId=o130170250152|Strong=6419|Frame=A0:130170250141;|Type=infinitive_construct 23-25 לְפָנֶֽיךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 24 case _ Gloss=before|Ref=1CH_17:25!16|MId=o130170250161|Strong=3807a 24 פָנֶֽי פָּנֶה NOUN _ Number=Plur 22 obl _ Gloss=|Ref=1CH_17:25!16|MId=o130170250162|Strong=6440 25 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 24 nmod:poss _ Gloss=you|Ref=1CH_17:25!16|MId=o130170250163|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 26 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 25 punct _ Ref=1CH_17:25!16 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | גָּלִיתָ *you have uncovered* | qatal · qal | אַתָּה *you* | אֹזֶן *the ear* | | | | בְנוֹת *build* | infinitive construct · qal | אֱלֹה *my God* | בָּיִת *a house* | | | | מָצָא *he has found* | qatal · qal | עַבְדּ *servant* | | | | | הִתְפַּלֵּל *pray* | infinitive construct · hithpael | עַבְדּ *servant* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
