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 — men, these — and what happens in the verse to thee, wisdom, 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. אַשְׁרֵ֣י אֲנָשֶׁ֔יךָ וְאַשְׁרֵ֖י עֲבָדֶ֣יךָ אֵ֑לֶּה הָעֹמְדִ֤ים לְפָנֶ֙יךָ֙ תָּמִ֔יד וְשֹׁמְעִ֖ים אֶת־חָכְמָתֶֽךָ׃ [Happy are thy men, and happy are these thy servants, that stand continually before thee, and hear thy wisdom.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/2CH.186/) ## 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:176 # text = אַשְׁרֵ֣י אֲנָשֶׁ֔יךָ וְאַשְׁרֵ֖י עֲבָדֶ֣יךָ אֵ֑לֶּה הָעֹמְדִ֤ים לְפָנֶ֙יךָ֙ תָּמִ֔יד וְשֹׁמְעִ֖ים אֶת־חָכְמָתֶֽךָ׃ # verse = 2CH.9.7 1 אַשְׁרֵ֣י אֶשֶׁר INTJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 0 root _ Gloss=how.blessed!|Ref=2CH_9:7!1|MId=o140090070011|Strong=0835a 2-3 אֲנָשֶׁ֔יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 2 אֲנָשֶׁ֔י אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 1 nsubj _ Gloss=people|Ref=2CH_9:7!2|MId=o140090070021|Strong=0376 3 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 2 nmod:poss _ Gloss=[are].your|Ref=2CH_9:7!2|MId=o140090070022|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 4-5 וְאַשְׁרֵ֖י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 5 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2CH_9:7!3|MId=o140090070031|Strong=2050b 5 אַשְׁרֵ֖י אֶשֶׁר INTJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 1 conj _ Gloss=how.blessed!|Ref=2CH_9:7!3|MId=o140090070032|Strong=0835a 6-7 עֲבָדֶ֣יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 עֲבָדֶ֣י עֶבֶד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 5 nsubj _ Gloss=servants|Ref=2CH_9:7!4|MId=o140090070041|Strong=5650 7 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 6 nmod:poss _ Gloss=[are].your|Ref=2CH_9:7!4|MId=o140090070042|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 8 אֵ֑לֶּה אֵלֶּה DET _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|PronType=Dem 6 det _ Gloss=these|Ref=2CH_9:7!5|MId=o140090070051|Strong=0428|Type=demonstrative 9-10 הָעֹמְדִ֤ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 הָ הַ SCONJ _ _ 10 mark _ Gloss=[who]|Ref=2CH_9:7!6|MId=o140090070061|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 10 עֹמְדִ֤ים עָמַד VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur 6 appos _ Gloss=stand|Ref=2CH_9:7!6|MId=o140090070062|Strong=5975|Frame=A0:140090070041;|Type=participle_active 11-13 לְפָנֶ֙יךָ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=before|Ref=2CH_9:7!7|MId=o140090070071|Strong=3807a 12 פָנֶ֙י פָּנֶה NOUN _ Number=Plur 10 obl _ Gloss=|Ref=2CH_9:7!7|MId=o140090070072|Strong=6440 13 ךָ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 12 nmod:poss _ Gloss=you|Ref=2CH_9:7!7|MId=o140090070073|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 14 תָּמִ֔יד תָּמִיד ADV _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 10 advmod _ Gloss=continually|Ref=2CH_9:7!8|MId=o140090070081|Strong=8548 15-16 וְשֹׁמְעִ֖ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 16 cc _ Gloss=and.[who]|Ref=2CH_9:7!9|MId=o140090070091|Strong=2050b 16 שֹׁמְעִ֖ים שָׁמַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur 10 conj _ Gloss=hear|Ref=2CH_9:7!9|MId=o140090070092|Strong=8085|Frame=A0:140090070041;A1:140090070111;|Type=participle_active 17 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=2CH_9:7!10|MId=o140090070101|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 18-19 חָכְמָתֶֽךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 חָכְמָת חׇכְמָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 16 obj _ Gloss=wisdom|Ref=2CH_9:7!11|MId=o140090070111|Strong=2451 19 ֶֽךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 18 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=2CH_9:7!11|MId=o140090070112|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 20 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 19 punct _ Ref=2CH_9:7!11 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | עֹמְדִים *stand* | participle active · qal | עֲבָדֶי *servants* | | | | | שֹׁמְעִים *hear* | participle active · qal | עֲבָדֶי *servants* | חָכְמָת *wisdom* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
