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 — My — and what happens in the verse to clean hands, name, vain, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the Aramaic of the Targum and the English of the Jewish Publication Society's 1917 translation, each English sentence with a tree of its own. It is one of the 150 chapters of Psalms on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. נְקִ֥י כַפַּ֗יִם וּֽבַר־לֵ֫בָ֥ב אֲשֶׁ֤ר ׀ לֹא־נָשָׂ֣א לַשָּׁ֣וְא נַפְשִׁ֑י וְלֹ֖א נִשְׁבַּ֣ע לְמִרְמָֽה׃ [He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not taken My name in vain, and hath not sworn deceitfully.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/PSA.351/) ## 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:PSA:318 # text = נְקִ֥י כַפַּ֗יִם וּֽבַר־לֵ֫בָ֥ב אֲשֶׁ֤ר ׀ לֹא־נָשָׂ֣א לַשָּׁ֣וְא נַפְשִׁ֑י וְלֹ֖א נִשְׁבַּ֣ע לְמִרְמָֽה׃ # verse = PSA.24.4 1 נְקִ֥י נָקִי ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 0 root _ Gloss=a.[person].innocent|Ref=PSA_24:4!1|MId=o190240040011|Strong=5355|Type=adjective 2 כַפַּ֗יִם כַּף NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Dual 1 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.palms|Ref=PSA_24:4!2|MId=o190240040021|Strong=3709 3-4 וּֽבַר־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 וּֽ וְ CCONJ _ _ 4 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=PSA_24:4!3|MId=o190240040031|Strong=2050b 4 בַר־ בַּר ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 1 conj _ Gloss=a.[person].pure|Ref=PSA_24:4!3|MId=o190240040032|Strong=1249|Type=adjective 5 לֵ֫בָ֥ב לֵבָב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 4 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.heart|Ref=PSA_24:4!4|MId=o190240040041|Strong=3824 6 אֲשֶׁ֤ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 9 mark _ Gloss=who|Ref=PSA_24:4!5|MId=o190240040051|Strong=0834|Type=relative 7 ׀ ׀ PUNCT _ _ 6 punct _ Ref=PSA_24:4!5 8 לֹא־ לֹא ADV _ _ 9 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=PSA_24:4!6|MId=o190240040061|Strong=3808|Type=negative|SpaceAfter=No 9 נָשָׂ֣א נָשָׂא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 1 acl:relcl _ Gloss=he.has.lifted.up|Ref=PSA_24:4!7|MId=o190240040071|Strong=5375|Frame=A0:190240040011;A1:190240040091;|Type=qatal 10-12 לַשָּׁ֣וְא _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 לַ לְ ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=PSA_24:4!8|MId=o190240040081|Strong=3807a 11 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 12 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=PSA_24:4!8|MId=o190240040081ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 12 שָּׁ֣וְא שָׁוְא NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 obl _ Gloss=falsehood|Ref=PSA_24:4!8|MId=o190240040082|Strong=7723 13-14 נַפְשִׁ֑י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 נַפְשׁ נֶפֶשׁ NOUN _ Number=Sing 9 obj _ Gloss=desire|Ref=PSA_24:4!9|MId=o190240040091|Strong=5315 14 ִ֑י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 13 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=PSA_24:4!9|MId=o190240040092|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 15-16 וְלֹ֖א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 17 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=PSA_24:4!10|MId=o190240040101|Strong=2050b 16 לֹ֖א לֹא ADV _ _ 17 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=PSA_24:4!10|MId=o190240040102|Strong=3808|Type=negative 17 נִשְׁבַּ֣ע שָׁבַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 9 conj _ Gloss=he.has.sworn.an.oath|Ref=PSA_24:4!11|MId=o190240040111|Strong=7650|Frame=A0:190240040011;|Type=qatal 18-19 לְמִרְמָֽה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=PSA_24:4!12|MId=o190240040121|Strong=3807a 19 מִרְמָֽה מִרְמָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 17 obl _ Gloss=deceit|Ref=PSA_24:4!12|MId=o190240040122|Strong=4820 20 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 19 punct _ Ref=PSA_24:4!12 ``` ## 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** נָשָׂא *he has lifted up* | qatal · qal | נְקִי *a \[person\] innocent* | נַפְשׁ *desire* | | | | **not** נִשְׁבַּע *he has sworn an oath* | qatal · niphal | נְקִי *a \[person\] innocent* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
