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 — king, guard — and what happens in the verse to house, shields, guard chamber, 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 36 chapters of 2 Chronicles on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וַיְהִ֛י מִדֵּי־ב֥וֹא הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ בֵּ֣ית יְהוָ֑ה בָּ֤אוּ הָרָצִים֙ וּנְשָׂא֔וּם וֶהֱשִׁב֖וּם אֶל־תָּ֥א הָרָצִֽים׃ [And it was so, that as oft as the king entered into the house of the LORD, the guard came and bore them, and brought them back into the guard-chamber.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/2CH.267/) ## 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:2CH:253 # text = וַיְהִ֛י מִדֵּי־ב֥וֹא הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ בֵּ֣ית יְהוָ֑ה בָּ֤אוּ הָרָצִים֙ וּנְשָׂא֔וּם וֶהֱשִׁב֖וּם אֶל־תָּ֥א הָרָצִֽים׃ # verse = 2CH.12.11 1-2 וַיְהִ֛י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2CH_12:11!1|MId=o140120110011|Strong=2050b 2 יְהִ֛י הָיָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=it.was|Ref=2CH_12:11!1|MId=o140120110012|Strong=1961|Type=wayyiqtol 3-4 מִדֵּי־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=as|Ref=2CH_12:11!2|MId=o140120110021|Strong=4480 4 דֵּי־ דַּי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=often.as|Ref=2CH_12:11!2|MId=o140120110022|Strong=1767 5 ב֥וֹא בּוֹא VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 4 acl _ Gloss=went|Ref=2CH_12:11!3|MId=o140120110031|Strong=0935|Frame=A0:140120110042;|Type=infinitive_construct 6-7 הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 7 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2CH_12:11!4|MId=o140120110041|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 7 מֶּ֖לֶךְ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 5 nsubj _ Gloss=king|Ref=2CH_12:11!4|MId=o140120110042|Strong=4428 8 בֵּ֣ית בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 5 obl _ Gloss=the.house|Ref=2CH_12:11!5|MId=o140120110051|Strong=1004 9 יְהוָ֑ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 8 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=2CH_12:11!6|MId=o140120110061|Strong=3068 10 בָּ֤אוּ בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 parataxis _ Gloss=they.came|Ref=2CH_12:11!7|MId=o140120110071|Strong=0935|Frame=A0:140120110082;|Type=qatal 11-12 הָרָצִים֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 12 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2CH_12:11!8|MId=o140120110081|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 12 רָצִים֙ רוּץ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur 10 nsubj _ Gloss=runners|Ref=2CH_12:11!8|MId=o140120110082|Strong=7323|Type=participle_active 13-15 וּנְשָׂא֔וּם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 14 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2CH_12:11!9|MId=o140120110091|Strong=2050b 14 נְשָׂא֔וּ נָשָׂא VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=they|Ref=2CH_12:11!9|MId=o140120110092|Strong=5375|Frame=A0:140120110082;A1:140120110093;|Type=weqatal 15 ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 14 obj _ Gloss=carried.them|Ref=2CH_12:11!9|MId=o140120110093|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 16-18 וֶהֱשִׁב֖וּם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 וֶ וְ CCONJ _ _ 17 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2CH_12:11!10|MId=o140120110101|Strong=2050b 17 הֱשִׁב֖וּ שׁוּב VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=they|Ref=2CH_12:11!10|MId=o140120110102|Strong=7725|Frame=AA:140120110082;A0:140120110103;|Type=weqatal 18 ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 17 obj _ Gloss=returned.them|Ref=2CH_12:11!10|MId=o140120110103|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 19 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=2CH_12:11!11|MId=o140120110111|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 20 תָּ֥א תָּא NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 17 obl _ Gloss=the.guardroom|Ref=2CH_12:11!12|MId=o140120110121|Strong=8372 21-22 הָרָצִֽים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 22 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=2CH_12:11!13|MId=o140120110131|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 22 רָצִֽים רוּץ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur 20 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.runners|Ref=2CH_12:11!13|MId=o140120110132|Strong=7323|Type=participle_active 23 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 22 punct _ Ref=2CH_12:11!13 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | בוֹא *went* | infinitive construct · qal | מֶּלֶךְ *king* | | | | | בָּאוּ *they came* | qatal · qal | רָצִים *runners* | | | | | נְשָׂאוּ *they* | weqatal · qal | רָצִים *runners* | ם *carried them* | | | | הֱשִׁבוּ *they* | weqatal · hiphil | ם *returned them* | | | רָצִים *runners* | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
