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 — and what happens in the verse, 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. וַיְדַבֵּ֤ר יְהוָה֙ אֶל־גָּ֔ד חֹזֵ֥ה דָוִ֖יד לֵאמֹֽר׃ [And the LORD spoke unto Gad, David's seer, saying:](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/1CH.760/) ## 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:691 # text = וַיְדַבֵּ֤ר יְהוָה֙ אֶל־גָּ֔ד חֹזֵ֥ה דָוִ֖יד לֵאמֹֽר׃ # verse = 1CH.21.9 1-2 וַיְדַבֵּ֤ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1CH_21:9!1|MId=o130210090011|Strong=2050b 2 יְדַבֵּ֤ר דָבַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.spoke|Ref=1CH_21:9!1|MId=o130210090012|Strong=1696|Frame=A0:130210090021;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 יְהוָה֙ יהוה PROPN _ _ 2 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=1CH_21:9!2|MId=o130210090021|Strong=3068 4 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=1CH_21:9!3|MId=o130210090031|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 5 גָּ֔ד גָּד PROPN _ _ 2 obl _ Gloss=Gad|Ref=1CH_21:9!4|MId=o130210090041|Strong=1410 6 חֹזֵ֥ה חֹזֶה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 5 appos _ Gloss=the.seer|Ref=1CH_21:9!5|MId=o130210090051|Strong=2374 7 דָוִ֖יד דָּוִד PROPN _ _ 6 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.David|Ref=1CH_21:9!6|MId=o130210090061|Strong=1732 8-9 לֵאמֹֽר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 לֵ לְ ADP _ ExtPos=SCONJ 2 ccomp _ Gloss=(cmp)|Ref=1CH_21:9!7|MId=o130210090071|Strong=3807a 9 אמֹֽר אָמַר VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 8 fixed _ Gloss=|Ref=1CH_21:9!7|MId=o130210090072|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:130210090021;|Type=infinitive_construct 10 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 8 punct _ Ref=1CH_21:9!7 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: narrate - voice: narrator - speech: a frame; the quote follows - negation: no - the frame alone: decl · narrate · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יְדַבֵּר *he spoke* | wayyiqtol · piel | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | | | | אמֹֽר | infinitive construct · qal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
