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 — Amaziah, we, I, man, LORD — and what happens in the verse to hundred talents, army, more, thee, 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. וַיֹּ֤אמֶר אֲמַצְיָ֙הוּ֙ לְאִ֣ישׁ הָאֱלֹהִ֔ים וּמַֽה־לַּעֲשׂוֹת֙ לִמְאַ֣ת הַכִּכָּ֔ר אֲשֶׁ֥ר נָתַ֖תִּי לִגְד֣וּד יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל וַיֹּ֙אמֶר֙ אִ֣ישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִ֔ים יֵ֚שׁ לַֽיהוָ֔ה לָ֥תֶת לְךָ֖ הַרְבֵּ֥ה מִזֶּֽה׃ [And Amaziah said to the man of God: 'But what shall we do for the hundred talents which I have given to the army of Israel?'

Under each word its part of speech and MACULA's English gloss. ```conllu rtl gloss # sent_id = wlc:2CH:518 # text = וַיֹּ֤אמֶר אֲמַצְיָ֙הוּ֙ לְאִ֣ישׁ הָאֱלֹהִ֔ים וּמַֽה־לַּעֲשׂוֹת֙ לִמְאַ֣ת הַכִּכָּ֔ר אֲשֶׁ֥ר נָתַ֖תִּי לִגְד֣וּד יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל וַיֹּ֙אמֶר֙ אִ֣ישׁ הָֽאֱלֹהִ֔ים יֵ֚שׁ לַֽיהוָ֔ה לָ֥תֶת לְךָ֖ הַרְבֵּ֥ה מִזֶּֽה׃ # verse = 2CH.25.9 1-2 וַיֹּ֤אמֶר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2CH_25:9!1|MId=o140250090011|Strong=2050b 2 יֹּ֤אמֶר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.said|Ref=2CH_25:9!1|MId=o140250090012|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:140250090021;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 אֲמַצְיָ֙הוּ֙ אֲמַצְיָהוּ PROPN _ _ 2 nsubj _ Gloss=Amaziah|Ref=2CH_25:9!2|MId=o140250090021|Strong=0558a 4-5 לְאִ֣ישׁ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=2CH_25:9!3|MId=o140250090031|Strong=3807a 5 אִ֣ישׁ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=the.man|Ref=2CH_25:9!3|MId=o140250090032|Strong=0376 6-7 הָאֱלֹהִ֔ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 7 det _ Gloss=of.(the)|Ref=2CH_25:9!4|MId=o140250090041|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 7 אֱלֹהִ֔ים אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 5 compound:smixut _ Gloss=God|Ref=2CH_25:9!4|MId=o140250090042|Strong=0430 8-9 וּמַֽה־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 9 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2CH_25:9!5|MId=o140250090051|Strong=2050b 9 מַֽה־ מָה PRON _ PronType=Int 2 conj _ Gloss=what?|Ref=2CH_25:9!5|MId=o140250090052|Strong=4100|Type=interrogative 10-11 לַּעֲשׂוֹת֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 לַּ לְ ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=[is].to|Ref=2CH_25:9!6|MId=o140250090061|Strong=3807a 11 עֲשׂוֹת֙ עָשָׂה VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 9 nsubj _ Gloss=do|Ref=2CH_25:9!6|MId=o140250090062|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:140250090021;|Type=infinitive_construct 12-13 לִמְאַ֣ת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=2CH_25:9!7|MId=o140250090071|Strong=3807a 13 מְאַ֣ת מֵאָה NUM _ Number=Sing 15 nummod _ Gloss=the.one.hundred|Ref=2CH_25:9!7|MId=o140250090072|Strong=3967|Type=cardinal_number 14-15 הַכִּכָּ֔ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 15 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2CH_25:9!8|MId=o140250090081|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 15 כִּכָּ֔ר כִּכָּר NOUN _ Number=Sing 11 obl _ Gloss=talent[s]|Ref=2CH_25:9!8|MId=o140250090082|Strong=3603 16 אֲשֶׁ֥ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 17 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=2CH_25:9!9|MId=o140250090091|Strong=0834|Type=relative 17 נָתַ֖תִּי נָתַן VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 15 acl:relcl _ Gloss=I.paid|Ref=2CH_25:9!10|MId=o140250090101|Strong=5414|Frame=A0:140250090021;A1:140250090082;|Type=qatal 18-19 לִגְד֣וּד _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=2CH_25:9!11|MId=o140250090111|Strong=3807a 19 גְד֣וּד גְּדוּד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 17 obl _ Gloss=the.troop[s]|Ref=2CH_25:9!11|MId=o140250090112|Strong=1416 20 יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל יִשְׂרָאֵל PROPN _ _ 19 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Israel|Ref=2CH_25:9!12|MId=o140250090121|Strong=3478 21-22 וַיֹּ֙אמֶר֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 22 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2CH_25:9!13|MId=o140250090131|Strong=2050b 22 יֹּ֙אמֶר֙ אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.said|Ref=2CH_25:9!13|MId=o140250090132|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:140250090141;|Type=wayyiqtol 23 אִ֣ישׁ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 22 nsubj _ Gloss=the.man|Ref=2CH_25:9!14|MId=o140250090141|Strong=0376 24-25 הָֽאֱלֹהִ֔ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 הָֽ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 25 det _ Gloss=of.(the)|Ref=2CH_25:9!15|MId=o140250090151|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 25 אֱלֹהִ֔ים אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 23 compound:smixut _ Gloss=God|Ref=2CH_25:9!15|MId=o140250090152|Strong=0430 26 יֵ֚שׁ יֵשׁ ADV _ _ 22 ccomp _ Gloss=there.[is]|Ref=2CH_25:9!16|MId=o140250090161|Strong=3426|Type=demonstrative 27-28 לַֽיהוָ֔ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 לַֽ לְ ADP _ _ 28 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=2CH_25:9!17|MId=o140250090171|Strong=3807a 28 יהוָ֔ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 26 obl _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=2CH_25:9!17|MId=o140250090172|Strong=3068 29-30 לָ֥תֶת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 29 לָ֥ לְ ADP _ _ 30 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=2CH_25:9!18|MId=o140250090181|Strong=3807a 30 תֶת נָתַן VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 26 nsubj _ Gloss=give|Ref=2CH_25:9!18|MId=o140250090182|Strong=5414|Frame=A0:140250090172;A1:140250090201;|Type=infinitive_construct 31-32 לְךָ֖ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 31 ל לְ ADP _ _ 32 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=2CH_25:9!19|MId=o140250090191|Strong=3807a 32 ְךָ֖ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 30 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=2CH_25:9!19|MId=o140250090192|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 33 הַרְבֵּ֥ה רָבָה ADV _ HebBinyan=HIPHIL 30 obj _ Gloss=much|Ref=2CH_25:9!20|MId=o140250090201|Strong=7235b|Type=infinitive_absolute 34-35 מִזֶּֽה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 34 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 35 case _ Gloss=more|Ref=2CH_25:9!21|MId=o140250090211|Strong=4480 35 זֶּֽה זֶה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|PronType=Dem 33 nmod _ Gloss=than.this|Ref=2CH_25:9!21|MId=o140250090212|Strong=2088|Type=demonstrative 36 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 35 punct _ Ref=2CH_25:9!21 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
