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 — we, prophets, Thy — and what happens in the verse to name, 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. וְלֹ֤א שָׁמַ֙עְנוּ֙ אֶל־עֲבָדֶ֣יךָ הַנְּבִיאִ֔ים אֲשֶׁ֤ר דִּבְּרוּ֙ בְּשִׁמְךָ֔ אֶל־מְלָכֵ֥ינוּ שָׂרֵ֖ינוּ וַאֲבֹתֵ֑ינוּ וְאֶ֖ל כָּל־עַ֥ם הָאָֽרֶץ׃ [neither have we hearkened unto Thy servants the prophets, that spoke in Thy name to our kings, our princes, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/DAN.270/) ## 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:56 # text = וְלֹ֤א שָׁמַ֙עְנוּ֙ אֶל־עֲבָדֶ֣יךָ הַנְּבִיאִ֔ים אֲשֶׁ֤ר דִּבְּרוּ֙ בְּשִׁמְךָ֔ אֶל־מְלָכֵ֥ינוּ שָׂרֵ֖ינוּ וַאֲבֹתֵ֑ינוּ וְאֶ֖ל כָּל־עַ֥ם הָאָֽרֶץ׃ # verse = DAN.9.6 1-2 וְלֹ֤א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 3 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DAN_9:6!1|MId=o270090060011|Strong=2050b 2 לֹ֤א לֹא ADV _ _ 3 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=DAN_9:6!1|MId=o270090060012|Strong=3808|Type=negative 3 שָׁמַ֙עְנוּ֙ שָׁמַע VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=1 0 root _ Gloss=we.have.listened|Ref=DAN_9:6!2|MId=o270090060021|Strong=8085|Frame=A0:270060140101;270090020051;|Type=qatal 4 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DAN_9:6!3|MId=o270090060031|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 5-6 עֲבָדֶ֣יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 עֲבָדֶ֣י עֶבֶד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 3 obl _ Gloss=servants|Ref=DAN_9:6!4|MId=o270090060041|Strong=5650 6 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 5 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=DAN_9:6!4|MId=o270090060042|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 7-8 הַנְּבִיאִ֔ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 8 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=DAN_9:6!5|MId=o270090060051|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 8 נְּבִיאִ֔ים נָבִיא NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 5 appos _ Gloss=prophets|Ref=DAN_9:6!5|MId=o270090060052|Strong=5030 9 אֲשֶׁ֤ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 10 mark _ Gloss=who|Ref=DAN_9:6!6|MId=o270090060061|Strong=0834|Type=relative 10 דִּבְּרוּ֙ דָבַר VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Plur|Person=3 5 acl:relcl _ Gloss=they.spoke|Ref=DAN_9:6!7|MId=o270090060071|Strong=1696|Frame=A0:270090060041;|Type=qatal 11-13 בְּשִׁמְךָ֔ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=DAN_9:6!8|MId=o270090060081|Strong=0871a 12 שִׁמ שֵׁם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 10 obl _ Gloss=name|Ref=DAN_9:6!8|MId=o270090060082|Strong=8034 13 ְךָ֔ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 12 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=DAN_9:6!8|MId=o270090060083|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 14 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DAN_9:6!9|MId=o270090060091|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 15-16 מְלָכֵ֥ינוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 מְלָכֵ֥י מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 10 obl _ Gloss=kings|Ref=DAN_9:6!10|MId=o270090060101|Strong=4428 16 נוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 15 nmod:poss _ Gloss=our|Ref=DAN_9:6!10|MId=o270090060102|Strong=5105a|Type=pronominal 17-18 שָׂרֵ֖ינוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 שָׂרֵ֖י שַׂר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 15 conj _ Gloss=leaders|Ref=DAN_9:6!11|MId=o270090060111|Strong=8269 18 נוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 17 nmod:poss _ Gloss=our|Ref=DAN_9:6!11|MId=o270090060112|Strong=5105a|Type=pronominal 19-21 וַאֲבֹתֵ֑ינוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 20 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DAN_9:6!12|MId=o270090060121|Strong=2050b 20 אֲבֹתֵ֑י אָב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 15 conj _ Gloss=ancestors|Ref=DAN_9:6!12|MId=o270090060122|Strong=0001 21 נוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 20 nmod:poss _ Gloss=our|Ref=DAN_9:6!12|MId=o270090060123|Strong=5105a|Type=pronominal 22-23 וְאֶ֖ל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 24 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DAN_9:6!13|MId=o270090060131|Strong=2050b 23 אֶ֖ל אֶל ADP _ _ 24 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DAN_9:6!13|MId=o270090060132|Strong=0413 24 כָּל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 15 conj _ Gloss=all|Ref=DAN_9:6!14|MId=o270090060141|Strong=3605|SpaceAfter=No 25 עַ֥ם עַם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 24 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.people|Ref=DAN_9:6!15|MId=o270090060151|Strong=5971 26-27 הָאָֽרֶץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 27 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=DAN_9:6!16|MId=o270090060161|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 27 אָֽרֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 25 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.land|Ref=DAN_9:6!16|MId=o270090060162|Strong=0776 28 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 27 punct _ Ref=DAN_9:6!16 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | **not** שָׁמַעְנוּ *we have listened* | qatal · qal | | | | | | דִּבְּרוּ *they spoke* | qatal · piel | עֲבָדֶי *servants* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
