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 — Abishag, thou, Solomon, king — and what happens in the verse to throne, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the Aramaic of Targum Jonathan 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 22 chapters of 1 Kings on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וַתֹּ֣אמֶר ל֗וֹ אֲדֹנִי֙ אַתָּ֨ה נִשְׁבַּ֜עְתָּ בַּֽיהוָ֤ה אֱלֹהֶ֙יךָ֙ לַֽאֲמָתֶ֔ךָ כִּֽי־שְׁלֹמֹ֥ה בְנֵ֖ךְ יִמְלֹ֣ךְ אַחֲרָ֑י וְה֖וּא יֵשֵׁ֥ב עַל־כִּסְאִֽי׃ [And she said unto him: 'My lord, thou didst swear by the LORD thy God unto thy handmaid: Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/1KI.17/) ## 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:1KI:16 # text = וַתֹּ֣אמֶר ל֗וֹ אֲדֹנִי֙ אַתָּ֨ה נִשְׁבַּ֜עְתָּ בַּֽיהוָ֤ה אֱלֹהֶ֙יךָ֙ לַֽאֲמָתֶ֔ךָ כִּֽי־שְׁלֹמֹ֥ה בְנֵ֖ךְ יִמְלֹ֣ךְ אַחֲרָ֑י וְה֖וּא יֵשֵׁ֥ב עַל־כִּסְאִֽי׃ # verse = 1KI.1.17 1-2 וַתֹּ֣אמֶר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1KI_1:17!1|MId=o110010170011|Strong=2050b 2 תֹּ֣אמֶר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=she.said|Ref=1KI_1:17!1|MId=o110010170012|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:110010160021;|Type=wayyiqtol 3-4 ל֗וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 ל לְ ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=1KI_1:17!2|MId=o110010170021|Strong=3807a 4 ֗וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 2 obl _ Gloss=him|Ref=1KI_1:17!2|MId=o110010170022|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 5-6 אֲדֹנִי֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 אֲדֹנ אָדוֹן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 dislocated _ Gloss=my.lord|Ref=1KI_1:17!3|MId=o110010170031|Strong=0113 6 ִי֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 5 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=1KI_1:17!3|MId=o110010170032|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 7 אַתָּ֨ה אַתָּה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 8 nsubj _ Gloss=you|Ref=1KI_1:17!4|MId=o110010170041|Strong=0859|Type=personal 8 נִשְׁבַּ֜עְתָּ שָׁבַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 2 ccomp _ Gloss=you.swore.an.oath|Ref=1KI_1:17!5|MId=o110010170051|Strong=7650|Frame=A0:110010170041;A1:110010170121;110010170151;|Type=qatal 9-10 בַּֽיהוָ֤ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 בַּֽ בְּ ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=by|Ref=1KI_1:17!6|MId=o110010170061|Strong=0871a 10 יהוָ֤ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 8 obl _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=1KI_1:17!6|MId=o110010170062|Strong=3068 11-12 אֱלֹהֶ֙יךָ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 אֱלֹהֶ֙י אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 10 appos _ Gloss=God|Ref=1KI_1:17!7|MId=o110010170071|Strong=0430 12 ךָ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 11 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=1KI_1:17!7|MId=o110010170072|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 13-15 לַֽאֲמָתֶ֔ךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 לַֽ לְ ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=1KI_1:17!8|MId=o110010170081|Strong=3807a 14 אֲמָת אָמָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 8 obl _ Gloss=maidservant|Ref=1KI_1:17!8|MId=o110010170082|Strong=0519 15 ֶ֔ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 14 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=1KI_1:17!8|MId=o110010170083|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 16 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 20 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=1KI_1:17!9|MId=o110010170091|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 17 שְׁלֹמֹ֥ה שְׁלֹמֹה PROPN _ _ 20 nsubj _ Gloss=Solomon|Ref=1KI_1:17!10|MId=o110010170101|Strong=8010 18-19 בְנֵ֖ךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 בְנ בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 17 appos _ Gloss=son|Ref=1KI_1:17!11|MId=o110010170111|Strong=1121 19 ֵ֖ךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 18 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=1KI_1:17!11|MId=o110010170112|Strong=3509c|Type=pronominal 20 יִמְלֹ֣ךְ מָלַךְ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 8 ccomp _ Gloss=he.will.reign|Ref=1KI_1:17!12|MId=o110010170121|Strong=4427|Frame=A0:110010170101;|Type=yiqtol 21-22 אַחֲרָ֑י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 אַחֲר אַחַר ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=after|Ref=1KI_1:17!13|MId=o110010170131|Strong=0310 22 ָ֑י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 20 obl _ Gloss=me|Ref=1KI_1:17!13|MId=o110010170132|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 23-24 וְה֖וּא _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 25 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1KI_1:17!14|MId=o110010170141|Strong=2050b 24 ה֖וּא הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 25 nsubj _ Gloss=he|Ref=1KI_1:17!14|MId=o110010170142|Strong=1931|Type=personal 25 יֵשֵׁ֥ב יָשַׁב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 20 conj _ Gloss=he.will.sit|Ref=1KI_1:17!15|MId=o110010170151|Strong=3427|Frame=A0:110010170142;|Type=yiqtol 26 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 27 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=1KI_1:17!16|MId=o110010170161|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 27-28 כִּסְאִֽי _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 כִּסְא כִּסֵּא NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 25 obl _ Gloss=throne|Ref=1KI_1:17!17|MId=o110010170171|Strong=3678 28 ִֽי הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 27 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=1KI_1:17!17|MId=o110010170172|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 29 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 28 punct _ Ref=1KI_1:17!17 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: no - the frame alone: decl · narrate · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | תֹּאמֶר *she said* | wayyiqtol · qal | | | | | | נִשְׁבַּעְתָּ *you swore an oath* | qatal · niphal | אַתָּה *you* | יִמְלֹךְ *he will reign* + יֵשֵׁב *he will sit* | | | | יִמְלֹךְ *he will reign* | yiqtol · qal | שְׁלֹמֹה *Solomon* | | | | | יֵשֵׁב *he will sit* | yiqtol · qal | הוּא *he* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
