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 — it, Jeroboam — and what happens in the verse to Egypt, presence, 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. וַיְהִ֞י כִּשְׁמֹ֣עַ ׀ יָרָבְעָ֣ם בֶּן־נְבָ֗ט וְהוּא֙ עוֹדֶ֣נּוּ בְמִצְרַ֔יִם אֲשֶׁ֣ר בָּרַ֔ח מִפְּנֵ֖י הַמֶּ֣לֶךְ שְׁלֹמֹ֑ה וַיֵּ֥שֶׁב יָרָבְעָ֖ם בְּמִצְרָֽיִם׃ [And it came to pass, when Jeroboam the son of Nebat heard of it — for he was yet in Egypt, whither he had fled from the presence of king Solomon, and Jeroboam dwelt in Egypt,](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/1KI.453/) ## 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:435 # text = וַיְהִ֞י כִּשְׁמֹ֣עַ ׀ יָרָבְעָ֣ם בֶּן־נְבָ֗ט וְהוּא֙ עוֹדֶ֣נּוּ בְמִצְרַ֔יִם אֲשֶׁ֣ר בָּרַ֔ח מִפְּנֵ֖י הַמֶּ֣לֶךְ שְׁלֹמֹ֑ה וַיֵּ֥שֶׁב יָרָבְעָ֖ם בְּמִצְרָֽיִם׃ # verse = 1KI.12.2 1-2 וַיְהִ֞י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1KI_12:2!1|MId=o110120020011|Strong=2050b 2 יְהִ֞י הָיָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=it.was|Ref=1KI_12:2!1|MId=o110120020012|Strong=1961|Type=wayyiqtol 3-4 כִּשְׁמֹ֣עַ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 כִּ כְּ ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=just|Ref=1KI_12:2!2|MId=o110120020021|Strong=3509a 4 שְׁמֹ֣עַ שָׁמַע VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 2 advcl _ Gloss=as.heard|Ref=1KI_12:2!2|MId=o110120020022|Strong=8085|Frame=A0:110120020031;|Type=infinitive_construct 5 ׀ ׀ PUNCT _ _ 4 punct _ Ref=1KI_12:2!2 6 יָרָבְעָ֣ם יָרָבְעָם PROPN _ _ 4 nsubj _ Gloss=Jeroboam|Ref=1KI_12:2!3|MId=o110120020031|Strong=3379 7 בֶּן־ בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 appos _ Gloss=the.son|Ref=1KI_12:2!4|MId=o110120020041|Strong=1121|SpaceAfter=No 8 נְבָ֗ט נְבָט PROPN _ _ 7 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Nebat|Ref=1KI_12:2!5|MId=o110120020051|Strong=5028 9-10 וְהוּא֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 14 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1KI_12:2!6|MId=o110120020061|Strong=2050b 10 הוּא֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 14 dislocated _ Gloss=he|Ref=1KI_12:2!6|MId=o110120020062|Strong=1931|Type=personal 11-12 עוֹדֶ֣נּוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 עוֹד עוֹד ADV _ _ 14 advmod _ Gloss=still|Ref=1KI_12:2!7|MId=o110120020071|Strong=5750 12 ֶ֣נּוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 14 nsubj _ Gloss=he|Ref=1KI_12:2!7|MId=o110120020072|Strong=5105b|Type=pronominal 13-14 בְמִצְרַ֔יִם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 בְ בְּ ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=[was].in|Ref=1KI_12:2!8|MId=o110120020081|Strong=0871a 14 מִצְרַ֔יִם מִצְרַיִם PROPN _ _ 2 conj _ Gloss=Egypt|Ref=1KI_12:2!8|MId=o110120020082|Strong=4714 15 אֲשֶׁ֣ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 16 mark _ Gloss=where|Ref=1KI_12:2!9|MId=o110120020091|Strong=0834|Type=relative 16 בָּרַ֔ח בָּרַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 14 acl:relcl _ Gloss=he.had.fled|Ref=1KI_12:2!10|MId=o110120020101|Strong=1272|Frame=A0:110120020031;|Type=qatal 17-18 מִפְּנֵ֖י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=1KI_12:2!11|MId=o110120020111|Strong=4480 18 פְּנֵ֖י פָּנֶה NOUN _ Number=Plur 16 obl _ Gloss=before|Ref=1KI_12:2!11|MId=o110120020112|Strong=6440 19-20 הַמֶּ֣לֶךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 20 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=1KI_12:2!12|MId=o110120020121|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 20 מֶּ֣לֶךְ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 18 compound:smixut _ Gloss=king|Ref=1KI_12:2!12|MId=o110120020122|Strong=4428 21 שְׁלֹמֹ֑ה שְׁלֹמֹה PROPN _ _ 20 appos _ Gloss=Solomon|Ref=1KI_12:2!13|MId=o110120020131|Strong=8010 22-23 וַיֵּ֥שֶׁב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 23 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1KI_12:2!14|MId=o110120020141|Strong=2050b 23 יֵּ֥שֶׁב יָשַׁב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.dwelt|Ref=1KI_12:2!14|MId=o110120020142|Strong=3427|Frame=A0:110120020151;|Type=wayyiqtol 24 יָרָבְעָ֖ם יָרָבְעָם PROPN _ _ 23 nsubj _ Gloss=Jeroboam|Ref=1KI_12:2!15|MId=o110120020151|Strong=3379 25-26 בְּמִצְרָֽיִם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 26 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=1KI_12:2!16|MId=o110120020161|Strong=0871a 26 מִצְרָֽיִם מִצְרַיִם PROPN _ _ 23 obl _ Gloss=Egypt|Ref=1KI_12:2!16|MId=o110120020162|Strong=4714 27 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 26 punct _ Ref=1KI_12:2!16 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: narrate - voice: narrator - speech: narration - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | שְׁמֹעַ *as heard* | infinitive construct · qal | יָרָבְעָם *Jeroboam* | | | | | בָּרַח *he had fled* | qatal · qal | יָרָבְעָם *Jeroboam* | | | | | יֵּשֶׁב *he dwelt* | wayyiqtol · qal | יָרָבְעָם *Jeroboam* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
