Daniel 2:37 in Biblical Aramaic with its dependency tree, JPS 1917 and the pragmatics of every clause. --- [Mova](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) · [this page in HTML](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/DAN.2.37/) [home](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) / [corpora](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/) / [Tanakh](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/tanakh/) / [Ketuvim](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/) / [Daniel](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/DAN/) / [chapter 2](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/DAN/2/) / 2:37 # Daniel 2:37 דָּנִיֵּאל **Who acts:** God · **What happens:** give · **To what, where:** kingdom This is Daniel 2:37 from Mova's open Bible corpus, the Tanakh in three languages (Ketuvim — the Writings). The page gives the verse in Biblical Aramaic as the Westminster Leningrad Codex has it, its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies, built from MACULA Aramaic — and its pragmatics: who acts — God — and what happens in the verse to kingdom, 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. אַ֣נְתְּהמַלְכָּ֔א מֶ֖לֶךְ מַלְכַיָּ֑א דִּ֚י אֱלָ֣הּ שְׁמַיָּ֔א מַלְכוּתָ֥א חִסְנָ֛א וְתָקְפָּ֥א וִֽיקָרָ֖א יְהַב־לָֽךְ׃ [Thou, O king, king of kings, unto whom the God of heaven hath given the kingdom, the power, and the strength, and the glory;](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/DAN.61/) ## The tree {#tree} This verse is in Biblical Aramaic, as the book has it here; its tree is MACULA's Aramaic tree. Right to left, as it 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-arc:DAN:33 # text = אַ֣נְתְּהמַלְכָּ֔א מֶ֖לֶךְ מַלְכַיָּ֑א דִּ֚י אֱלָ֣הּ שְׁמַיָּ֔א מַלְכוּתָ֥א חִסְנָ֛א וְתָקְפָּ֥א וִֽיקָרָ֖א יְהַב־לָֽךְ׃ # verse = DAN.2.37 1-3 אַ֣נְתְּהמַלְכָּ֔א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 אַ֣נְתְּה אַנְתָּה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 4 nsubj _ Gloss=you|Ref=DAN_2:37!1|MId=o270020370011|Strong=0607|Lang=arc|Type=personal 2 מַלְכּ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 4 dislocated _ Gloss=O|Ref=DAN_2:37!2|MId=o270020370021|Strong=4430|Lang=arc 3 ָ֔א א DET _ PronType=Art 2 det _ Gloss=king|Ref=DAN_2:37!2|MId=o270020370022|Strong=0001b|Lang=arc|Type=definite_article 4 מֶ֖לֶךְ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 0 root _ Gloss=[are].the.king|Ref=DAN_2:37!3|MId=o270020370031|Strong=4430|Lang=arc 5-6 מַלְכַיָּ֑א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 מַלְכַיּ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 4 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of|Ref=DAN_2:37!4|MId=o270020370041|Strong=4430|Lang=arc 6 ָ֑א א DET _ PronType=Art 5 det _ Gloss=the.kings|Ref=DAN_2:37!4|MId=o270020370042|Strong=0001b|Lang=arc|Type=definite_article 7 דִּ֚י דִּי SCONJ _ _ 21 mark _ Gloss=whom|Ref=DAN_2:37!5|MId=o270020370051|Strong=1768|Lang=arc|Type=relative 8 אֱלָ֣הּ אֱלָהּ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 21 nsubj _ Gloss=the.God|Ref=DAN_2:37!6|MId=o270020370061|Strong=0426|Lang=arc 9-10 שְׁמַיָּ֔א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 שְׁמַיּ שָׁמַיִן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 8 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of|Ref=DAN_2:37!7|MId=o270020370071|Strong=8065|Lang=arc 10 ָ֔א א DET _ PronType=Art 9 det _ Gloss=the.heavens|Ref=DAN_2:37!7|MId=o270020370072|Strong=0001b|Lang=arc|Type=definite_article 11-12 מַלְכוּתָ֥א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 מַלְכוּת מַלְכוּ NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 21 obj _ Gloss=the|Ref=DAN_2:37!8|MId=o270020370081|Strong=4437|Lang=arc 12 ָ֥א א DET _ PronType=Art 11 det _ Gloss=kingdom|Ref=DAN_2:37!8|MId=o270020370082|Strong=0001b|Lang=arc|Type=definite_article 13-14 חִסְנָ֛א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 חִסְנ חֵסֶן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 11 conj _ Gloss=the|Ref=DAN_2:37!9|MId=o270020370091|Strong=2632|Lang=arc 14 ָ֛א א DET _ PronType=Art 13 det _ Gloss=power|Ref=DAN_2:37!9|MId=o270020370092|Strong=0001b|Lang=arc|Type=definite_article 15-17 וְתָקְפָּ֥א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 16 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DAN_2:37!10|MId=o270020370101|Strong=2050d|Lang=arc 16 תָקְפּ תְּקֹף NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 11 conj _ Gloss=the|Ref=DAN_2:37!10|MId=o270020370102|Strong=8632|Lang=arc 17 ָ֥א א DET _ PronType=Art 16 det _ Gloss=strength|Ref=DAN_2:37!10|MId=o270020370103|Strong=0001b|Lang=arc|Type=definite_article 18-20 וִֽיקָרָ֖א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 וִֽ וְ CCONJ _ _ 19 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DAN_2:37!11|MId=o270020370111|Strong=2050d|Lang=arc 19 יקָר יְקָר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 11 conj _ Gloss=the|Ref=DAN_2:37!11|MId=o270020370112|Strong=3367|Lang=arc 20 ָ֖א א DET _ PronType=Art 19 det _ Gloss=honor|Ref=DAN_2:37!11|MId=o270020370113|Strong=0001b|Lang=arc|Type=definite_article 21 יְהַב־ יְהַב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PEAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 4 acl:relcl _ Gloss=he.has.given|Ref=DAN_2:37!12|MId=o270020370121|Strong=3052|Lang=arc|Frame=A0:270020370061;A1:270020370081;270020370091;270020370102;270020370112;|Type=qatal|SpaceAfter=No 22-23 לָֽךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 ל לְ ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DAN_2:37!13|MId=o270020370131|Strong=3807b|Lang=arc 23 ָֽךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 21 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=DAN_2:37!13|MId=o270020370132|Strong=3509e|Lang=arc|Type=pronominal 24 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 23 punct _ Ref=DAN_2:37!13 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} No stored speech act for this sentence. | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יְהַב־ *he has given* | qatal · peal | אֱלָהּ *the God* | מַלְכוּת *the* + חִסְנ *the* + תָקְפּ *the* + יקָר *the* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
