# Daniel 4:22 דָּנִיֵּאל

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** dwelling, thou, seven times, Most High · **What happens:** drive, be, make, eat, wet, pass · **To what, where:** thou, grass, thee, kingdom, High, whomsoever · **Speech:** someone speaks in this verse

<!-- .vabout -->
This is Daniel 4:22 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 — dwelling, thou, seven times, Most High — and what happens in the verse to thou, grass, thee, kingdom, High, whomsoever, 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.

## The tree {#tree}

<!-- .note -->
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.
