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 — you, face, sanctuary, servant, God — and what happens in the verse to face, sanctuary, 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. וְעַתָּ֣ה ׀ שְׁמַ֣ע אֱלֹהֵ֗ינוּ אֶל־תְּפִלַּ֤ת עַבְדְּךָ֙ וְאֶל־תַּ֣חֲנוּנָ֔יו וְהָאֵ֣ר פָּנֶ֔יךָ עַל־מִקְדָּשְׁךָ֖ הַשָּׁמֵ֑ם לְמַ֖עַן אֲדֹנָֽי׃ [Now therefore, O our God, hearken unto the prayer of Thy servant, and to his supplications, and cause Thy face to shine upon Thy sanctuary that is desolate, for the Lord's sake.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/DAN.281/) ## 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:67 # text = וְעַתָּ֣ה ׀ שְׁמַ֣ע אֱלֹהֵ֗ינוּ אֶל־תְּפִלַּ֤ת עַבְדְּךָ֙ וְאֶל־תַּ֣חֲנוּנָ֔יו וְהָאֵ֣ר פָּנֶ֔יךָ עַל־מִקְדָּשְׁךָ֖ הַשָּׁמֵ֑ם לְמַ֖עַן אֲדֹנָֽי׃ # verse = DAN.9.17 1-2 וְעַתָּ֣ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DAN_9:17!1|MId=o270090170011|Strong=2050b 2 עַתָּ֣ה עַתָּה ADV _ _ 0 root _ Gloss=therefore|Ref=DAN_9:17!1|MId=o270090170012|Strong=6258 3 ׀ ׀ PUNCT _ _ 2 punct _ Ref=DAN_9:17!1 4 שְׁמַ֣ע שָׁמַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 2 parataxis _ Gloss=listen|Ref=DAN_9:17!2|MId=o270090170021|Strong=8085|Frame=A0:270090170031;|Type=imperative 5-6 אֱלֹהֵ֗ינוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 אֱלֹהֵ֗י אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 4 dislocated _ Gloss=our.God|Ref=DAN_9:17!3|MId=o270090170031|Strong=0430 6 נוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 5 nmod:poss _ Gloss=O|Ref=DAN_9:17!3|MId=o270090170032|Strong=5105a|Type=pronominal 7 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DAN_9:17!4|MId=o270090170041|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 8 תְּפִלַּ֤ת תְּפִלָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 4 obl _ Gloss=the.prayer|Ref=DAN_9:17!5|MId=o270090170051|Strong=8605 9-10 עַבְדְּךָ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 עַבְדּ עֶבֶד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 compound:smixut _ Gloss=your.servant|Ref=DAN_9:17!6|MId=o270090170061|Strong=5650 10 ְךָ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 9 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=DAN_9:17!6|MId=o270090170062|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 11-12 וְאֶל־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 13 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DAN_9:17!7|MId=o270090170071|Strong=2050b 12 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DAN_9:17!7|MId=o270090170072|Strong=0413 13-14 תַּ֣חֲנוּנָ֔יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 תַּ֣חֲנוּנָ֔י תַּחֲנוּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 8 conj _ Gloss=supplications|Ref=DAN_9:17!8|MId=o270090170081|Strong=8469 14 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 13 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=DAN_9:17!8|MId=o270090170082|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 15-16 וְהָאֵ֣ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 16 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DAN_9:17!9|MId=o270090170091|Strong=2050b 16 הָאֵ֣ר אוֹר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=2 2 conj _ Gloss=make.shine|Ref=DAN_9:17!9|MId=o270090170092|Strong=0215|Frame=AA:270090170031;A0:270090170101;|Type=imperative 17-18 פָּנֶ֔יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 פָּנֶ֔י פָּנֶה NOUN _ Number=Plur 16 obj _ Gloss=face|Ref=DAN_9:17!10|MId=o270090170101|Strong=6440 18 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 17 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=DAN_9:17!10|MId=o270090170102|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 19 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=DAN_9:17!11|MId=o270090170111|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 20-21 מִקְדָּשְׁךָ֖ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 מִקְדָּשׁ מִקְדָּשׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 16 obl _ Gloss=sanctuary|Ref=DAN_9:17!12|MId=o270090170121|Strong=4720 21 ְךָ֖ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 20 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=DAN_9:17!12|MId=o270090170122|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 22-23 הַשָּׁמֵ֑ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 23 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=DAN_9:17!13|MId=o270090170131|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 23 שָּׁמֵ֑ם שָׁמֵם ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 20 amod _ Gloss=desolate|Ref=DAN_9:17!13|MId=o270090170132|Strong=8076|Type=adjective 24 לְמַ֖עַן לְמַעַן ADP _ _ 25 case _ Gloss=for.the.sake.of|Ref=DAN_9:17!14|MId=o270090170141|Strong=4616 25-26 אֲדֹנָֽי _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 אֲדֹנ אֲדֹנָי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 16 obl _ Gloss=Lord|Ref=DAN_9:17!15|MId=o270090170151|Strong=0136 26 ָֽי הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 25 nmod:poss _ Gloss=[the]|Ref=DAN_9:17!15|MId=o270090170152|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 27 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=DAN_9:17!15 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: request - 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | שְׁמַע *listen* | imperative · qal | אֱלֹהֵי *our God* | | | | | הָאֵר *make shine* | imperative · hiphil | פָּנֶי *face* | | | אֱלֹהֵי *our God* | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
