Who acts: you, I. Nehemiah 13:14 in Hebrew with its dependency tree, JPS 1917 and the pragmatics of every clause. --- [Mova](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) · [this page in HTML](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/NEH.13.14/) [home](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) / [corpora](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/) / [Tanakh](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/tanakh/) / [Ketuvim](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/) / [Nehemiah](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/NEH/) / [chapter 13](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/NEH/13/) / 13:14 # Nehemiah 13:14 נְחֶמְיָה **Who acts:** you, I · **What happens:** remember, not wipe out, do · **To what, where:** me, good deeds This is Nehemiah 13:14 from Mova's open Bible corpus, the Tanakh in three languages (Ketuvim — the Writings). 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, I — and what happens in the verse to me, good deeds, 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 13 chapters of Nehemiah on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. זָכְרָה־לִּ֥י אֱלֹהַ֖י עַל־זֹ֑את וְאַל־תֶּ֣מַח חֲסָדַ֗י אֲשֶׁ֥ר עָשִׂ֛יתִי בְּבֵ֥ית אֱלֹהַ֖י וּבְמִשְׁמָרָֽיו׃ [Remember me, O my God, concerning this, and wipe not out my good deeds that I have done for the house of my God, and for the wards thereof.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/NEH.420/) ## 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:NEH:387 # text = זָכְרָה־לִּ֥י אֱלֹהַ֖י עַל־זֹ֑את וְאַל־תֶּ֣מַח חֲסָדַ֗י אֲשֶׁ֥ר עָשִׂ֛יתִי בְּבֵ֥ית אֱלֹהַ֖י וּבְמִשְׁמָרָֽיו׃ # verse = NEH.13.14 1-2 זָכְרָה־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 זָכְר זָכַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=remember|Ref=NEH_13:14!1|MId=o160130140011|Strong=2142|Frame=A0:160130140031;|Type=imperative 2 ָה־ ה X _ _ 1 nmod _ Gloss=|Ref=NEH_13:14!1|MId=o160130140012|Strong=1886j|Type=paragogic_he 3-4 לִּ֥י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 לּ לְ ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=NEH_13:14!2|MId=o160130140021|Strong=3807a 4 ִ֥י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 1 obl _ Gloss=me|Ref=NEH_13:14!2|MId=o160130140022|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 5-6 אֱלֹהַ֖י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 אֱלֹה אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 1 parataxis _ Gloss=my.God|Ref=NEH_13:14!3|MId=o160130140031|Strong=0430 6 ַ֖י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 5 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=NEH_13:14!3|MId=o160130140032|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 7 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=NEH_13:14!4|MId=o160130140041|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 8 זֹ֑את זֹאת PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|PronType=Dem 1 obl _ Gloss=this|Ref=NEH_13:14!5|MId=o160130140051|Strong=2063|Type=demonstrative 9-10 וְאַל־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 11 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NEH_13:14!6|MId=o160130140061|Strong=2050b 10 אַל־ אַל ADV _ _ 11 advmod _ Gloss=do.not|Ref=NEH_13:14!6|MId=o160130140062|Strong=0408|Type=negative 11 תֶּ֣מַח מָחָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=2 1 conj _ Gloss=wipe.out|Ref=NEH_13:14!7|MId=o160130140071|Strong=4229|Frame=AA:160130140031;A0:160130140081;|Type=jussive 12-13 חֲסָדַ֗י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 חֲסָד חֶסֶד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 11 obj _ Gloss=loyalti(es)|Ref=NEH_13:14!8|MId=o160130140081|Strong=2617 13 ַ֗י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 12 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=NEH_13:14!8|MId=o160130140082|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 14 אֲשֶׁ֥ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 15 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=NEH_13:14!9|MId=o160130140091|Strong=0834|Type=relative 15 עָשִׂ֛יתִי עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 12 acl:relcl _ Gloss=I.have.done|Ref=NEH_13:14!10|MId=o160130140101|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:160120470061;A1:160130140081;|Type=qatal 16-17 בְּבֵ֥ית _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=NEH_13:14!11|MId=o160130140111|Strong=0871a 17 בֵ֥ית בַּיִת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 15 obl _ Gloss=the.house|Ref=NEH_13:14!11|MId=o160130140112|Strong=1004 18-19 אֱלֹהַ֖י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 אֱלֹה אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 17 compound:smixut _ Gloss=my.God|Ref=NEH_13:14!12|MId=o160130140121|Strong=0430 19 ַ֖י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 18 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=NEH_13:14!12|MId=o160130140122|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 20-23 וּבְמִשְׁמָרָֽיו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 22 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NEH_13:14!13|MId=o160130140131|Strong=2050b 21 בְ בְּ ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=NEH_13:14!13|MId=o160130140132|Strong=0871a 22 מִשְׁמָרָֽי מִשְׁמָר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 17 conj _ Gloss=services|Ref=NEH_13:14!13|MId=o160130140133|Strong=4929 23 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 22 nmod:poss _ Gloss=its|Ref=NEH_13:14!13|MId=o160130140134|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 24 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 23 punct _ Ref=NEH_13:14!13 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: command - act: request - 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | זָכְר *remember* | imperative · qal | אֱלֹה *my God* | | | | | **not** תֶּמַח *wipe out* | jussive · hiphil | חֲסָד *loyalti(es)* | | | אֱלֹה *my God* | | עָשִׂיתִי *I have done* | qatal · qal | | חֲסָד *loyalti(es)* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
