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 — servant, strength, breath — and what happens in the verse to lord, breath, 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 12 chapters of Daniel on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וְהֵ֣יךְ יוּכַ֗ל עֶ֤בֶד אֲדֹנִי֙ זֶ֔ה לְדַבֵּ֖ר עִם־אֲדֹ֣נִי זֶ֑ה וַאֲנִ֤י מֵעַ֙תָּה֙ לֹֽא־יַעֲמָד־בִּ֣י כֹ֔חַ וּנְשָׁמָ֖ה לֹ֥א נִשְׁאֲרָה־בִֽי׃ [For how can this servant of my lord talk with this my lord? for as for me, straightway there remained no strength in me, neither was there breath left in me.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/DAN.308/) ## 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:DAN:94 # text = וְהֵ֣יךְ יוּכַ֗ל עֶ֤בֶד אֲדֹנִי֙ זֶ֔ה לְדַבֵּ֖ר עִם־אֲדֹ֣נִי זֶ֑ה וַאֲנִ֤י מֵעַ֙תָּה֙ לֹֽא־יַעֲמָד־בִּ֣י כֹ֔חַ וּנְשָׁמָ֖ה לֹ֥א נִשְׁאֲרָה־בִֽי׃ # verse = DAN.10.17 1-2 וְהֵ֣יךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 3 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DAN_10:17!1|MId=o270100170011|Strong=2050b 2 הֵ֣יךְ הֵיךְ PART _ _ 3 advmod _ Gloss=how?|Ref=DAN_10:17!1|MId=o270100170012|Strong=1963|Type=interrogative 3 יוּכַ֗ל יָכֹל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=is.he.able|Ref=DAN_10:17!2|MId=o270100170021|Strong=3201|Frame=A0:270100170031;|Type=yiqtol 4 עֶ֤בֶד עֶבֶד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 nsubj _ Gloss=the.servant|Ref=DAN_10:17!3|MId=o270100170031|Strong=5650 5-6 אֲדֹנִי֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 אֲדֹנ אָדוֹן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 4 compound:smixut _ Gloss=my.lord|Ref=DAN_10:17!4|MId=o270100170041|Strong=0113 6 ִי֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 5 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=DAN_10:17!4|MId=o270100170042|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 7 זֶ֔ה זֶה DET _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|PronType=Dem 5 det _ Gloss=this|Ref=DAN_10:17!5|MId=o270100170051|Strong=2088|Type=demonstrative 8-9 לְדַבֵּ֖ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DAN_10:17!6|MId=o270100170061|Strong=3807a 9 דַבֵּ֖ר דָבַר VERB _ HebBinyan=PIEL 3 xcomp _ Gloss=speak|Ref=DAN_10:17!6|MId=o270100170062|Strong=1696|Frame=A0:270100170031;|Type=infinitive_construct 10 עִם־ עִם ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=DAN_10:17!7|MId=o270100170071|Strong=5973|SpaceAfter=No 11-12 אֲדֹ֣נִי _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 אֲדֹ֣נ אָדוֹן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 obl _ Gloss=lord|Ref=DAN_10:17!8|MId=o270100170081|Strong=0113 12 ִי הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 11 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=DAN_10:17!8|MId=o270100170082|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 13 זֶ֑ה זֶה DET _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|PronType=Dem 11 det _ Gloss=this|Ref=DAN_10:17!9|MId=o270100170091|Strong=2088|Type=demonstrative 14-15 וַאֲנִ֤י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 19 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DAN_10:17!10|MId=o270100170101|Strong=2050b 15 אֲנִ֤י אֲנִי PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 19 dislocated _ Gloss=I|Ref=DAN_10:17!10|MId=o270100170102|Strong=0589|Type=personal 16-17 מֵעַ֙תָּה֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 מֵ מִן ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=DAN_10:17!11|MId=o270100170111|Strong=4480 17 עַ֙תָּה֙ עַתָּה ADV _ _ 19 obl _ Gloss=now|Ref=DAN_10:17!11|MId=o270100170112|Strong=6258 18 לֹֽא־ לֹא ADV _ _ 19 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=DAN_10:17!12|MId=o270100170121|Strong=3808|Type=negative|SpaceAfter=No 19 יַעֲמָד־ עָמַד VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 3 conj _ Gloss=it.remains|Ref=DAN_10:17!13|MId=o270100170131|Strong=5975|Frame=A0:270100170151;|Type=yiqtol|SpaceAfter=No 20-21 בִּ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 בּ בְּ ADP _ _ 21 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=DAN_10:17!14|MId=o270100170141|Strong=0871a 21 ִ֣י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 19 obl _ Gloss=me|Ref=DAN_10:17!14|MId=o270100170142|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 22 כֹ֔חַ כֹּחַ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 19 nsubj _ Gloss=strength|Ref=DAN_10:17!15|MId=o270100170151|Strong=3581 23-24 וּנְשָׁמָ֖ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 26 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DAN_10:17!16|MId=o270100170161|Strong=2050b 24 נְשָׁמָ֖ה נְשָׁמָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 26 nsubj _ Gloss=breath|Ref=DAN_10:17!16|MId=o270100170162|Strong=5397 25 לֹ֥א לֹא ADV _ _ 26 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=DAN_10:17!17|MId=o270100170171|Strong=3808|Type=negative 26 נִשְׁאֲרָה־ שָׁאַר VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 19 conj _ Gloss=it.is.left|Ref=DAN_10:17!18|MId=o270100170181|Strong=7604|Frame=A1:270100170162;|Type=qatal|SpaceAfter=No 27-28 בִֽי _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 ב בְּ ADP _ _ 28 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=DAN_10:17!19|MId=o270100170191|Strong=0871a 28 ִֽי הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 26 obl _ Gloss=me|Ref=DAN_10:17!19|MId=o270100170192|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 29 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 28 punct _ Ref=DAN_10:17!19 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: wh-question - act: ask - 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יוּכַל *is he able* | yiqtol · qal | עֶבֶד *the servant* | | | | | דַבֵּר *speak* | infinitive construct · piel | עֶבֶד *the servant* | | | | | **not** יַעֲמָד־ *it remains* | yiqtol · qal | כֹחַ *strength* | | | | | **not** נִשְׁאֲרָה־ *it is left* | qatal · niphal | | נְשָׁמָה *breath* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
