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 — David, LORD, I — and what happens in the verse to skirt, me, thing, hand, anointed, 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 31 chapters of 1 Samuel on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וַיֹּ֨אמֶר לַאֲנָשָׁ֜יו חָלִ֧ילָה לִּ֣י מֵֽיהוָ֗ה אִם־אֶעֱשֶׂה֩ אֶת־הַדָּבָ֨ר הַזֶּ֤ה לַֽאדֹנִי֙ לִמְשִׁ֣יחַ יְהוָ֔ה לִשְׁלֹ֥חַ יָדִ֖י בּ֑וֹ כִּֽי־מְשִׁ֥יחַ יְהוָ֖ה הֽוּא׃ [And he said unto his men: 'The LORD forbid it me, that I should do this thing unto my lord, the LORD'S anointed, to put forth my hand against him, seeing he is the LORD'S anointed.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/1SA.702/) ## 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:1SA:633 # text = וַיֹּ֨אמֶר לַאֲנָשָׁ֜יו חָלִ֧ילָה לִּ֣י מֵֽיהוָ֗ה אִם־אֶעֱשֶׂה֩ אֶת־הַדָּבָ֨ר הַזֶּ֤ה לַֽאדֹנִי֙ לִמְשִׁ֣יחַ יְהוָ֔ה לִשְׁלֹ֥חַ יָדִ֖י בּ֑וֹ כִּֽי־מְשִׁ֥יחַ יְהוָ֖ה הֽוּא׃ # verse = 1SA.24.7 1-2 וַיֹּ֨אמֶר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1SA_24:7!1|MId=o090240070011|Strong=2050b 2 יֹּ֨אמֶר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.said|Ref=1SA_24:7!1|MId=o090240070012|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:090240060061;|Type=wayyiqtol 3-5 לַאֲנָשָׁ֜יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 לַ לְ ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=1SA_24:7!2|MId=o090240070021|Strong=3807a 4 אֲנָשָׁ֜י אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 2 obl _ Gloss=men|Ref=1SA_24:7!2|MId=o090240070022|Strong=0376 5 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 4 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=1SA_24:7!2|MId=o090240070023|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 6-7 חָלִ֧ילָה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 חָלִ֧יל חָלִילָה INTJ _ _ 7 discourse _ Gloss=far|Ref=1SA_24:7!3|MId=o090240070031|Strong=2486|Type=interjection 7 ָה ה X _ _ 2 ccomp _ Gloss=be.it|Ref=1SA_24:7!3|MId=o090240070032|Strong=1886c|Type=paragogic_he 8-9 לִּ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 לּ לְ ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=1SA_24:7!4|MId=o090240070041|Strong=3807a 9 ִ֣י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 7 obl _ Gloss=me|Ref=1SA_24:7!4|MId=o090240070042|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 10-11 מֵֽיהוָ֗ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 מֵֽ מִן ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=1SA_24:7!5|MId=o090240070051|Strong=4480 11 יהוָ֗ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 7 obl _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=1SA_24:7!5|MId=o090240070052|Strong=3068 12 אִם־ אִם SCONJ _ _ 13 mark _ Gloss=if|Ref=1SA_24:7!6|MId=o090240070061|Strong=0518|SpaceAfter=No 13 אֶעֱשֶׂה֩ עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 7 parataxis _ Gloss=I.will.do|Ref=1SA_24:7!7|MId=o090240070071|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:090240060061;A1:090240070092;|Type=yiqtol 14 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=1SA_24:7!8|MId=o090240070081|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 15-16 הַדָּבָ֨ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 16 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=1SA_24:7!9|MId=o090240070091|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 16 דָּבָ֨ר דָּבָר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 13 obj _ Gloss=thing|Ref=1SA_24:7!9|MId=o090240070092|Strong=1697 17-18 הַזֶּ֤ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 18 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=1SA_24:7!10|MId=o090240070101|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 18 זֶּ֤ה זֶה DET _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|PronType=Dem 16 det _ Gloss=this|Ref=1SA_24:7!10|MId=o090240070102|Strong=2088|Type=demonstrative 19-21 לַֽאדֹנִי֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 לַֽ לְ ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=1SA_24:7!11|MId=o090240070111|Strong=3807a 20 אדֹנ אָדוֹן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 13 obl _ Gloss=lord|Ref=1SA_24:7!11|MId=o090240070112|Strong=0113 21 ִי֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 20 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=1SA_24:7!11|MId=o090240070113|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 22-23 לִמְשִׁ֣יחַ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=1SA_24:7!12|MId=o090240070121|Strong=3807a 23 מְשִׁ֣יחַ מָשִׁיחַ ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 20 nmod _ Gloss=the.[one].anointed|Ref=1SA_24:7!12|MId=o090240070122|Strong=4899 24 יְהוָ֔ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 23 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=1SA_24:7!13|MId=o090240070131|Strong=3068 25-26 לִשְׁלֹ֥חַ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 26 case _ Gloss=by|Ref=1SA_24:7!14|MId=o090240070141|Strong=3807a 26 שְׁלֹ֥חַ שָׁלַח VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 13 advcl _ Gloss=stretching.out|Ref=1SA_24:7!14|MId=o090240070142|Strong=7971|Frame=A0:090240060061;A1:090240070151;|Type=infinitive_construct 27-28 יָדִ֖י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 יָד יָד NOUN _ Number=Sing 26 obj _ Gloss=hand|Ref=1SA_24:7!15|MId=o090240070151|Strong=3027 28 ִ֖י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 27 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=1SA_24:7!15|MId=o090240070152|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 29-30 בּ֑וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 29 בּ בְּ ADP _ _ 30 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=1SA_24:7!16|MId=o090240070161|Strong=0871a 30 ֑וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 26 obl _ Gloss=him|Ref=1SA_24:7!16|MId=o090240070162|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 31 כִּֽי־ כִּי SCONJ _ _ 32 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=1SA_24:7!17|MId=o090240070171|Strong=3588|SpaceAfter=No 32 מְשִׁ֥יחַ מָשִׁיחַ ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 7 advcl _ Gloss=[is].the.[one].anointed|Ref=1SA_24:7!18|MId=o090240070181|Strong=4899 33 יְהוָ֖ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 32 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=1SA_24:7!19|MId=o090240070191|Strong=3068 34 הֽוּא הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 32 nsubj _ Gloss=he|Ref=1SA_24:7!20|MId=o090240070201|Strong=1931|Type=personal|SpaceAfter=No 35 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 34 punct _ Ref=1SA_24:7!20 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
