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 — Jehoiada, captains — and what happens in the verse to covenant, people, 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 25 chapters of 2 Kings on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וַיִּכְרֹ֨ת יְהוֹיָדָ֜ע אֶֽת־הַבְּרִ֗ית בֵּ֤ין יְהוָה֙ וּבֵ֤ין הַמֶּ֙לֶךְ֙ וּבֵ֣ין הָעָ֔ם לִהְי֥וֹת לְעָ֖ם לַֽיהוָ֑ה וּבֵ֥ין הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ וּבֵ֥ין הָעָֽם׃ [And Jehoiada made a covenant between the LORD and the king and the people, that they should be the LORD'S people; between the king also and the people.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/2KI.358/) ## 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:2KI:312 # text = וַיִּכְרֹ֨ת יְהוֹיָדָ֜ע אֶֽת־הַבְּרִ֗ית בֵּ֤ין יְהוָה֙ וּבֵ֤ין הַמֶּ֙לֶךְ֙ וּבֵ֣ין הָעָ֔ם לִהְי֥וֹת לְעָ֖ם לַֽיהוָ֑ה וּבֵ֥ין הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ וּבֵ֥ין הָעָֽם׃ # verse = 2KI.11.17 1-2 וַיִּכְרֹ֨ת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2KI_11:17!1|MId=o120110170011|Strong=2050b 2 יִּכְרֹ֨ת כָּרַת VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.made|Ref=2KI_11:17!1|MId=o120110170012|Strong=3772|Frame=A0:120110170021;A1:120110170042;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 יְהוֹיָדָ֜ע יְהוֹיָדָע PROPN _ _ 2 nsubj _ Gloss=Jehoiada|Ref=2KI_11:17!2|MId=o120110170021|Strong=3077 4 אֶֽת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=2KI_11:17!3|MId=o120110170031|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 5-6 הַבְּרִ֗ית _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 6 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2KI_11:17!4|MId=o120110170041|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 6 בְּרִ֗ית בְּרִית NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 2 obj _ Gloss=covenant|Ref=2KI_11:17!4|MId=o120110170042|Strong=1285 7 בֵּ֤ין בֵּין ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=between|Ref=2KI_11:17!5|MId=o120110170051|Strong=0996 8 יְהוָה֙ יהוה PROPN _ _ 2 obl _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=2KI_11:17!6|MId=o120110170061|Strong=3068 9-10 וּבֵ֤ין _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 12 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2KI_11:17!7|MId=o120110170071|Strong=2050b 10 בֵ֤ין בֵּין ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=between|Ref=2KI_11:17!7|MId=o120110170072|Strong=0996 11-12 הַמֶּ֙לֶךְ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 12 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2KI_11:17!8|MId=o120110170081|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 12 מֶּ֙לֶךְ֙ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 conj _ Gloss=king|Ref=2KI_11:17!8|MId=o120110170082|Strong=4428 13-14 וּבֵ֣ין _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 16 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2KI_11:17!9|MId=o120110170091|Strong=2050b 14 בֵ֣ין בֵּין ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=between|Ref=2KI_11:17!9|MId=o120110170092|Strong=0996 15-16 הָעָ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 16 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2KI_11:17!10|MId=o120110170101|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 16 עָ֔ם עַם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 conj _ Gloss=people|Ref=2KI_11:17!10|MId=o120110170102|Strong=5971 17-18 לִהְי֥וֹת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=2KI_11:17!11|MId=o120110170111|Strong=3807a 18 הְי֥וֹת הָיָה AUX _ HebBinyan=QAL 20 cop _ Gloss=become|Ref=2KI_11:17!11|MId=o120110170112|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:120110170082;120110170102;|Type=infinitive_construct 19-20 לְעָ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=(into).a|Ref=2KI_11:17!12|MId=o120110170121|Strong=3807a 20 עָ֖ם עַם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=people|Ref=2KI_11:17!12|MId=o120110170122|Strong=5971 21-22 לַֽיהוָ֑ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 לַֽ לְ ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=of|Ref=2KI_11:17!13|MId=o120110170131|Strong=3807a 22 יהוָ֑ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 20 obl _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=2KI_11:17!13|MId=o120110170132|Strong=3068 23-24 וּבֵ֥ין _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 26 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2KI_11:17!14|MId=o120110170141|Strong=2050b 24 בֵ֥ין בֵּין ADP _ _ 26 case _ Gloss=between|Ref=2KI_11:17!14|MId=o120110170142|Strong=0996 25-26 הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 26 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2KI_11:17!15|MId=o120110170151|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 26 מֶּ֖לֶךְ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 conj _ Gloss=king|Ref=2KI_11:17!15|MId=o120110170152|Strong=4428 27-28 וּבֵ֥ין _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 30 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2KI_11:17!16|MId=o120110170161|Strong=2050b 28 בֵ֥ין בֵּין ADP _ _ 30 case _ Gloss=between|Ref=2KI_11:17!16|MId=o120110170162|Strong=0996 29-30 הָעָֽם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 29 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 30 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2KI_11:17!17|MId=o120110170171|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 30 עָֽם עַם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 26 conj _ Gloss=people|Ref=2KI_11:17!17|MId=o120110170172|Strong=5971 31 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 30 punct _ Ref=2KI_11:17!17 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יִּכְרֹת *he made* | wayyiqtol · qal | יְהוֹיָדָע *Jehoiada* | בְּרִית *covenant* | | | | הְיוֹת *become* | infinitive construct · qal | מֶּלֶךְ *king* + עָם *people* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
