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 — you, none, houses, people — and what happens in the verse to none, house, charge, LORD, 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. וְאַל־יָב֣וֹא בֵית־יְהוָ֗ה כִּ֤י אִם־הַכֹּֽהֲנִים֙ וְהַמְשָׁרְתִ֣ים לַלְוִיִּ֔ם הֵ֥מָּה יָבֹ֖אוּ כִּי־קֹ֣דֶשׁ הֵ֑מָּה וְכָל־הָעָ֔ם יִשְׁמְר֖וּ מִשְׁמֶ֥רֶת יְהוָֽה׃ [But let none come into the house of the LORD, save the priests, and they that minister of the Levites; they shall come in, for they are holy; but all the people shall keep the charge of the LORD.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/2CH.498/) ## 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:467 # text = וְאַל־יָב֣וֹא בֵית־יְהוָ֗ה כִּ֤י אִם־הַכֹּֽהֲנִים֙ וְהַמְשָׁרְתִ֣ים לַלְוִיִּ֔ם הֵ֥מָּה יָבֹ֖אוּ כִּי־קֹ֣דֶשׁ הֵ֑מָּה וְכָל־הָעָ֔ם יִשְׁמְר֖וּ מִשְׁמֶ֥רֶת יְהוָֽה׃ # verse = 2CH.23.6 1-2 וְאַל־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 3 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2CH_23:6!1|MId=o140230060011|Strong=2050b 2 אַל־ אַל ADV _ _ 3 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=2CH_23:6!1|MId=o140230060012|Strong=0408|Type=negative 3 יָב֣וֹא בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=let.anyone.go|Ref=2CH_23:6!2|MId=o140230060021|Strong=0935|Frame=A0:;|Type=jussive 4 בֵית־ בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 obl _ Gloss=the.house|Ref=2CH_23:6!3|MId=o140230060031|Strong=1004|SpaceAfter=No 5 יְהוָ֗ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 4 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=2CH_23:6!4|MId=o140230060041|Strong=3068 6 כִּ֤י כִּי SCONJ _ ExtPos=SCONJ 9 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=2CH_23:6!5|MId=o140230060051|Strong=3588 7 אִם־ אִם SCONJ _ _ 6 fixed _ Gloss=(if)|Ref=2CH_23:6!6|MId=o140230060061|Strong=0518|SpaceAfter=No 8-9 הַכֹּֽהֲנִים֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 9 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2CH_23:6!7|MId=o140230060071|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 9 כֹּֽהֲנִים֙ כֹּהֵן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 3 parataxis _ Gloss=priests|Ref=2CH_23:6!7|MId=o140230060072|Strong=3548 10-12 וְהַמְשָׁרְתִ֣ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 12 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2CH_23:6!8|MId=o140230060081|Strong=2050b 11 הַ הַ SCONJ _ _ 12 mark _ Gloss=[those|Ref=2CH_23:6!8|MId=o140230060082|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 12 מְשָׁרְתִ֣ים שָׁרַת VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Plur 9 conj _ Gloss=who.are].serving|Ref=2CH_23:6!8|MId=o140230060083|Strong=8334|Type=participle_active 13-15 לַלְוִיִּ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 לַ לְ ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=of|Ref=2CH_23:6!9|MId=o140230060091|Strong=3807a 14 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 15 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2CH_23:6!9|MId=o140230060091ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 15 לְוִיִּ֔ם לֵוִי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 12 obl _ Gloss=Levites|Ref=2CH_23:6!9|MId=o140230060092|Strong=3881|Type=gentilic 16 הֵ֥מָּה הֵמָּה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 17 nsubj _ Gloss=they|Ref=2CH_23:6!10|MId=o140230060101|Strong=1992|Type=personal 17 יָבֹ֖אוּ בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 3 parataxis _ Gloss=they.will.go|Ref=2CH_23:6!11|MId=o140230060111|Strong=0935|Frame=A0:140230060101;|Type=jussive 18 כִּי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 19 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=2CH_23:6!12|MId=o140230060121|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 19 קֹ֣דֶשׁ קֹדֶשׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 advcl _ Gloss=[are].holiness|Ref=2CH_23:6!13|MId=o140230060131|Strong=6944 20 הֵ֑מָּה הֵמָּה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 19 nsubj _ Gloss=they|Ref=2CH_23:6!14|MId=o140230060141|Strong=1992|Type=personal 21-22 וְכָל־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 25 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2CH_23:6!15|MId=o140230060151|Strong=2050b 22 כָל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 25 nsubj _ Gloss=all|Ref=2CH_23:6!15|MId=o140230060152|Strong=3605 23-24 הָעָ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 24 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2CH_23:6!16|MId=o140230060161|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 24 עָ֔ם עַם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 22 compound:smixut _ Gloss=people|Ref=2CH_23:6!16|MId=o140230060162|Strong=5971 25 יִשְׁמְר֖וּ שָׁמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 3 conj _ Gloss=they.will.keep|Ref=2CH_23:6!17|MId=o140230060171|Strong=8104|Frame=A0:140230060162;A1:140230060181;|Type=yiqtol 26 מִשְׁמֶ֥רֶת מִשְׁמֶרֶת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 25 obj _ Gloss=the.duty|Ref=2CH_23:6!18|MId=o140230060181|Strong=4931 27 יְהוָֽה יהוה PROPN _ _ 26 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=2CH_23:6!19|MId=o140230060191|Strong=3068|SpaceAfter=No 28 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 27 punct _ Ref=2CH_23:6!19 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: command - act: request - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: yes | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | **not** יָבוֹא *let anyone go* | jussive · qal | | | | | | יָבֹאוּ *they will go* | jussive · qal | הֵמָּה *they* | | | | | יִשְׁמְרוּ *they will keep* | yiqtol · qal | עָם *people* | מִשְׁמֶרֶת *the duty* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
