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 — priests — and what happens in the verse to weight, vessels, Jerusalem, 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. וְקִבְּלוּ֙ הַכֹּהֲנִ֣ים וְהַלְוִיִּ֔ם מִשְׁקַ֛ל הַכֶּ֥סֶף וְהַזָּהָ֖ב וְהַכֵּלִ֑ים לְהָבִ֥יא לִירוּשָׁלִַ֖ם לְבֵ֥ית אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ׃פ [So the priests and the Levites received the weight of the silver and the gold, and the vessels, to bring them to Jerusalem unto the house of our God.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/EZR.219/) ## 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:147 # text = וְקִבְּלוּ֙ הַכֹּהֲנִ֣ים וְהַלְוִיִּ֔ם מִשְׁקַ֛ל הַכֶּ֥סֶף וְהַזָּהָ֖ב וְהַכֵּלִ֑ים לְהָבִ֥יא לִירוּשָׁלִַ֖ם לְבֵ֥ית אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ׃פ # verse = EZR.8.30 1-2 וְקִבְּלוּ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZR_8:30!1|MId=o150080300011|Strong=2050b 2 קִבְּלוּ֙ קָבַל VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.took|Ref=EZR_8:30!1|MId=o150080300012|Strong=6901|Frame=A0:150080300022;150080300033;A1:150080300041;|Type=qatal 3-4 הַכֹּהֲנִ֣ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 4 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EZR_8:30!2|MId=o150080300021|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 4 כֹּהֲנִ֣ים כֹּהֵן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 2 nsubj _ Gloss=priests|Ref=EZR_8:30!2|MId=o150080300022|Strong=3548 5-7 וְהַלְוִיִּ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 7 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZR_8:30!3|MId=o150080300031|Strong=2050b 6 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 7 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EZR_8:30!3|MId=o150080300032|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 7 לְוִיִּ֔ם לֵוִי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 4 conj _ Gloss=Levites|Ref=EZR_8:30!3|MId=o150080300033|Strong=3881|Type=gentilic 8 מִשְׁקַ֛ל מִשְׁקָל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obj _ Gloss=the.weight|Ref=EZR_8:30!4|MId=o150080300041|Strong=4948 9-10 הַכֶּ֥סֶף _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 10 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=EZR_8:30!5|MId=o150080300051|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 10 כֶּ֥סֶף כֶּסֶף NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.silver|Ref=EZR_8:30!5|MId=o150080300052|Strong=3701 11-13 וְהַזָּהָ֖ב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 13 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZR_8:30!6|MId=o150080300061|Strong=2050b 12 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 13 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EZR_8:30!6|MId=o150080300062|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 13 זָּהָ֖ב זָהָב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 10 conj _ Gloss=gold|Ref=EZR_8:30!6|MId=o150080300063|Strong=2091 14-16 וְהַכֵּלִ֑ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 16 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EZR_8:30!7|MId=o150080300071|Strong=2050b 15 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 16 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EZR_8:30!7|MId=o150080300072|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 16 כֵּלִ֑ים כְּלִי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 10 conj _ Gloss=vessels|Ref=EZR_8:30!7|MId=o150080300073|Strong=3627 17-18 לְהָבִ֥יא _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EZR_8:30!8|MId=o150080300081|Strong=3807a 18 הָבִ֥יא בּוֹא VERB _ HebBinyan=HIPHIL 2 advcl _ Gloss=bring.[them]|Ref=EZR_8:30!8|MId=o150080300082|Strong=0935|Frame=AA:150080300022;150080300033;A0:150080300052;150080300063;150080300073;|Type=infinitive_construct 19-20 לִירוּשָׁלִַ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EZR_8:30!9|MId=o150080300091|Strong=3807a 20 ירוּשָׁלִַ֖ם יְרוּשָׁלִַ͏ם PROPN _ _ 18 obl _ Gloss=Jerusalem|Ref=EZR_8:30!9|MId=o150080300092|Strong=3389 21-22 לְבֵ֥ית _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EZR_8:30!10|MId=o150080300101|Strong=3807a 22 בֵ֥ית בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 18 obl _ Gloss=the.house|Ref=EZR_8:30!10|MId=o150080300102|Strong=1004 23-24 אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 אֱלֹהֵֽי אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 22 compound:smixut _ Gloss=our.God|Ref=EZR_8:30!11|MId=o150080300111|Strong=0430 24 נוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 23 nmod:poss _ Gloss=our|Ref=EZR_8:30!11|MId=o150080300112|Strong=5105a|Type=pronominal 25 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 24 punct _ Ref=EZR_8:30!11|SpaceAfter=No 26 פ פ PUNCT _ _ 24 punct _ Ref=EZR_8:30!11 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | קִבְּלוּ *they took* | qatal · piel | כֹּהֲנִים *priests* + לְוִיִּם *Levites* | מִשְׁקַל *the weight* | | | | הָבִיא *bring \[them\]* | infinitive construct · hiphil | כֶּסֶף *the silver* + זָּהָב *gold* + כֵּלִים *vessels* | | | כֹּהֲנִים *priests* + לְוִיִּם *Levites* | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
