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 — I — and what happens in the verse to hundred talents, hand, 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 10 chapters of Ezra on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וָאֶשְׁקֲלָ֨ה עַל־יָדָ֜ם כֶּ֗סֶף כִּכָּרִים֙ שֵֽׁשׁ־מֵא֣וֹת וַחֲמִשִּׁ֔ים וּכְלֵי־כֶ֥סֶף מֵאָ֖ה לְכִכָּרִ֑ים זָהָ֖ב מֵאָ֥ה כִכָּֽר׃ [I even weighed into their hand six hundred and fifty talents of silver, and silver vessels a hundred talents; of gold a hundred talents;](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/EZR.215/) ## 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:EZR:143 # text = וָאֶשְׁקֲלָ֨ה עַל־יָדָ֜ם כֶּ֗סֶף כִּכָּרִים֙ שֵֽׁשׁ־מֵא֣וֹת וַחֲמִשִּׁ֔ים וּכְלֵי־כֶ֥סֶף מֵאָ֖ה לְכִכָּרִ֑ים זָהָ֖ב מֵאָ֥ה כִכָּֽר׃ # verse = EZR.8.26 1-3 וָאֶשְׁקֲלָ֨ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וָ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZR_8:26!1|MId=o150080260011|Strong=2050b 2 אֶשְׁקֲל שָׁקַל VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 0 root _ Gloss=I|Ref=EZR_8:26!1|MId=o150080260012|Strong=8254|Frame=A0:150070250021;A1:150080260041;150080260092;150080260131;150080270012;150080270062;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 ָ֨ה ה X _ _ 2 nmod _ Gloss=weighed.out|Ref=EZR_8:26!1|MId=o150080260013|Strong=1886j|Type=paragogic_he 4 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=EZR_8:26!2|MId=o150080260021|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 5-6 יָדָ֜ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 יָד יָד NOUN _ Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=hand|Ref=EZR_8:26!3|MId=o150080260031|Strong=3027 6 ָ֜ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 5 nmod:poss _ Gloss=their|Ref=EZR_8:26!3|MId=o150080260032|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 7 כֶּ֗סֶף כֶּסֶף NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obj _ Gloss=silver|Ref=EZR_8:26!4|MId=o150080260041|Strong=3701 8 כִּכָּרִים֙ כִּכָּר NOUN _ Number=Plur 7 compound:smixut _ Gloss=talents|Ref=EZR_8:26!5|MId=o150080260051|Strong=3603 9 שֵֽׁשׁ־ שֵׁשׁ NUM _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 8 nummod _ Gloss=six|Ref=EZR_8:26!6|MId=o150080260061|Strong=8337|Type=cardinal_number|SpaceAfter=No 10 מֵא֣וֹת מֵאָה NUM _ Number=Plur 9 flat _ Gloss=hundred(s)|Ref=EZR_8:26!7|MId=o150080260071|Strong=3967|Type=cardinal_number 11-12 וַחֲמִשִּׁ֔ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 12 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZR_8:26!8|MId=o150080260081|Strong=2050b 12 חֲמִשִּׁ֔ים חָמֵשׁ NUM _ Number=Plur 9 conj _ Gloss=fifty|Ref=EZR_8:26!8|MId=o150080260082|Strong=2572|Type=cardinal_number 13-14 וּכְלֵי־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 14 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZR_8:26!9|MId=o150080260091|Strong=2050b 14 כְלֵי־ כְּלִי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 7 conj _ Gloss=vessels|Ref=EZR_8:26!9|MId=o150080260092|Strong=3627 15 כֶ֥סֶף כֶּסֶף NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 14 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.silver|Ref=EZR_8:26!10|MId=o150080260101|Strong=3701 16 מֵאָ֖ה מֵאָה NUM _ Number=Sing 14 nummod _ Gloss=one.hundred|Ref=EZR_8:26!11|MId=o150080260111|Strong=3967|Type=cardinal_number 17-18 לְכִכָּרִ֑ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=of|Ref=EZR_8:26!12|MId=o150080260121|Strong=3807a 18 כִכָּרִ֑ים כִּכָּר NOUN _ Number=Plur 16 nmod _ Gloss=talents|Ref=EZR_8:26!12|MId=o150080260122|Strong=3603 19 זָהָ֖ב זָהָב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 7 conj _ Gloss=gold|Ref=EZR_8:26!13|MId=o150080260131|Strong=2091 20 מֵאָ֥ה מֵאָה NUM _ Number=Sing 21 nummod _ Gloss=one.hundred|Ref=EZR_8:26!14|MId=o150080260141|Strong=3967|Type=cardinal_number 21 כִכָּֽר כִּכָּר NOUN _ Number=Sing 19 appos _ Gloss=talent[s]|Ref=EZR_8:26!15|MId=o150080260151|Strong=3603|SpaceAfter=No 22 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 21 punct _ Ref=EZR_8:26!15 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | אֶשְׁקֲל *I* | wayyiqtol · qal | | כֶּסֶף *silver* + כְלֵי־ *vessels* + זָהָב *gold* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
