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 — Judah, land, LORD — and what happens in the verse to fortified cities, Judah, war, rest, 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. וַיִּ֛בֶן עָרֵ֥י מְצוּרָ֖ה בִּיהוּדָ֑ה כִּֽי־שָׁקְטָ֣ה הָאָ֗רֶץ וְאֵין־עִמּ֤וֹ מִלְחָמָה֙ בַּשָּׁנִ֣ים הָאֵ֔לֶּה כִּֽי־הֵנִ֥יחַ יְהוָ֖ה לֽוֹ׃ [And he built fortified cities in Judah; for the land was quiet, and he had no war in those years; because the LORD had given him rest.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/2CH.303/) ## 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:286 # text = וַיִּ֛בֶן עָרֵ֥י מְצוּרָ֖ה בִּיהוּדָ֑ה כִּֽי־שָׁקְטָ֣ה הָאָ֗רֶץ וְאֵין־עִמּ֤וֹ מִלְחָמָה֙ בַּשָּׁנִ֣ים הָאֵ֔לֶּה כִּֽי־הֵנִ֥יחַ יְהוָ֖ה לֽוֹ׃ # verse = 2CH.14.5 1-2 וַיִּ֛בֶן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2CH_14:5!1|MId=o140140050011|Strong=2050b 2 יִּ֛בֶן בָּנָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.built|Ref=2CH_14:5!1|MId=o140140050012|Strong=1129|Frame=A0:140140010021;A1:140140050021;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 עָרֵ֥י עִיר NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 2 obj _ Gloss=cities|Ref=2CH_14:5!2|MId=o140140050021|Strong=5892 4 מְצוּרָ֖ה מְצוּרָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 3 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.fortification|Ref=2CH_14:5!3|MId=o140140050031|Strong=4694 5-6 בִּיהוּדָ֑ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 בִּ בְּ ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=2CH_14:5!4|MId=o140140050041|Strong=0871a 6 יהוּדָ֑ה יְהוּדָה PROPN _ _ 2 obl _ Gloss=Judah|Ref=2CH_14:5!4|MId=o140140050042|Strong=3063 7 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 8 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=2CH_14:5!5|MId=o140140050051|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 8 שָׁקְטָ֣ה שָׁקַט VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 advcl _ Gloss=it.was.at.peace|Ref=2CH_14:5!6|MId=o140140050061|Strong=8252|Frame=A0:140140050072;|Type=qatal 9-10 הָאָ֗רֶץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 10 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2CH_14:5!7|MId=o140140050071|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 10 אָ֗רֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 8 nsubj _ Gloss=land|Ref=2CH_14:5!7|MId=o140140050072|Strong=0776 11-12 וְאֵין־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 12 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2CH_14:5!8|MId=o140140050081|Strong=2050b 12 אֵין־ אַיִן ADV _ _ 2 conj _ Gloss=there.[was].not|Ref=2CH_14:5!8|MId=o140140050082|Strong=0369|Type=negative 13-14 עִמּ֤וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 עִמּ עִם ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=2CH_14:5!9|MId=o140140050091|Strong=5973 14 ֤וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 12 obl _ Gloss=him|Ref=2CH_14:5!9|MId=o140140050092|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 15 מִלְחָמָה֙ מִלְחָמָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 12 nsubj _ Gloss=war|Ref=2CH_14:5!10|MId=o140140050101|Strong=4421 16-18 בַּשָּׁנִ֣ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=2CH_14:5!11|MId=o140140050111|Strong=0871a 17 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 18 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2CH_14:5!11|MId=o140140050111ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 18 שָּׁנִ֣ים שָׁנָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 12 obl _ Gloss=years|Ref=2CH_14:5!11|MId=o140140050112|Strong=8141 19-20 הָאֵ֔לֶּה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 20 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=2CH_14:5!12|MId=o140140050121|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 20 אֵ֔לֶּה אֵלֶּה DET _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|PronType=Dem 18 det _ Gloss=these|Ref=2CH_14:5!12|MId=o140140050122|Strong=0428|Type=demonstrative 21 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 22 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=2CH_14:5!13|MId=o140140050131|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 22 הֵנִ֥יחַ נוּחַ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 advcl _ Gloss=he.had.given.rest|Ref=2CH_14:5!14|MId=o140140050141|Strong=5117|Frame=A0:140140050151;|Type=qatal 23 יְהוָ֖ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 22 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=2CH_14:5!15|MId=o140140050151|Strong=3068 24-25 לֽוֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 ל לְ ADP _ _ 25 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=2CH_14:5!16|MId=o140140050161|Strong=3807a 25 ֽוֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 22 obl _ Gloss=him|Ref=2CH_14:5!16|MId=o140140050162|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 26 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 25 punct _ Ref=2CH_14:5!16 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: narrate - voice: narrator - speech: narration - negation: yes | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | **not** יִּבֶן *he built* | wayyiqtol · qal | | עָרֵי *cities* | | | | שָׁקְטָה *it was at peace* | qatal · qal | אָרֶץ *land* | | | | | הֵנִיחַ *he had given rest* | qatal · hiphil | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
