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 — cups — and what happens in the verse to money, hand, cups, work, 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. וְלֹ֧א יְחַשְּׁב֣וּ אֶת־הָאֲנָשִׁ֗ים אֲשֶׁ֨ר יִתְּנ֤וּ אֶת־הַכֶּ֙סֶף֙ עַל־יָדָ֔ם לָתֵ֖ת לְעֹשֵׂ֣י הַמְּלָאכָ֑ה כִּ֥י בֶאֱמֻנָ֖ה הֵ֥ם עֹשִֽׂים׃ [Moreover they reckoned not with the men, into whose hand they delivered the money to give to them that did the work; for they dealt faithfully.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/2KI.379/) ## 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:331 # text = וְלֹ֧א יְחַשְּׁב֣וּ אֶת־הָאֲנָשִׁ֗ים אֲשֶׁ֨ר יִתְּנ֤וּ אֶת־הַכֶּ֙סֶף֙ עַל־יָדָ֔ם לָתֵ֖ת לְעֹשֵׂ֣י הַמְּלָאכָ֑ה כִּ֥י בֶאֱמֻנָ֖ה הֵ֥ם עֹשִֽׂים׃ # verse = 2KI.12.16 1-2 וְלֹ֧א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 3 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2KI_12:16!1|MId=o120120160011|Strong=2050b 2 לֹ֧א לֹא ADV _ _ 3 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=2KI_12:16!1|MId=o120120160012|Strong=3808|Type=negative 3 יְחַשְּׁב֣וּ חָשַׁב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.settled.accounts|Ref=2KI_12:16!2|MId=o120120160021|Strong=2803|Frame=A0:120120110081;120120110103;A1:120120160042;|Type=yiqtol 4 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=2KI_12:16!3|MId=o120120160031|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 5-6 הָאֲנָשִׁ֗ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 6 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2KI_12:16!4|MId=o120120160041|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 6 אֲנָשִׁ֗ים אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 3 obj _ Gloss=men|Ref=2KI_12:16!4|MId=o120120160042|Strong=0376 7 אֲשֶׁ֨ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 8 mark _ Gloss=whom|Ref=2KI_12:16!5|MId=o120120160051|Strong=0834|Type=relative 8 יִתְּנ֤וּ נָתַן VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 6 acl:relcl _ Gloss=they.put|Ref=2KI_12:16!6|MId=o120120160061|Strong=5414|Frame=A0:120120110081;120120110103;A1:120120160082;|Type=yiqtol 9 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=2KI_12:16!7|MId=o120120160071|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 10-11 הַכֶּ֙סֶף֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 11 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2KI_12:16!8|MId=o120120160081|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 11 כֶּ֙סֶף֙ כֶּסֶף NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 obj _ Gloss=money|Ref=2KI_12:16!8|MId=o120120160082|Strong=3701 12 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=2KI_12:16!9|MId=o120120160091|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 13-14 יָדָ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 יָד יָד NOUN _ Number=Sing 8 obl _ Gloss=hand|Ref=2KI_12:16!10|MId=o120120160101|Strong=3027 14 ָ֔ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 13 nmod:poss _ Gloss=their|Ref=2KI_12:16!10|MId=o120120160102|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 15-16 לָתֵ֖ת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 לָ לְ ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=2KI_12:16!11|MId=o120120160111|Strong=3807a 16 תֵ֖ת נָתַן VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 8 xcomp _ Gloss=give|Ref=2KI_12:16!11|MId=o120120160112|Strong=5414|Frame=A0:120120160042;|Type=infinitive_construct 17-18 לְעֹשֵׂ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=2KI_12:16!12|MId=o120120160121|Strong=3807a 18 עֹשֵׂ֣י עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur 16 xcomp _ Gloss=the.doers|Ref=2KI_12:16!12|MId=o120120160122|Strong=6213|Frame=A1:120120160132;|Type=participle_active 19-20 הַמְּלָאכָ֑ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 20 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=2KI_12:16!13|MId=o120120160131|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 20 מְּלָאכָ֑ה מְלָאכָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 18 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.work|Ref=2KI_12:16!13|MId=o120120160132|Strong=4399 21 כִּ֥י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 25 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=2KI_12:16!14|MId=o120120160141|Strong=3588 22-23 בֶאֱמֻנָ֖ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 בֶ בְּ ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=2KI_12:16!15|MId=o120120160151|Strong=0871a 23 אֱמֻנָ֖ה אֱמוּנָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 25 obl _ Gloss=faithfulness|Ref=2KI_12:16!15|MId=o120120160152|Strong=0530 24 הֵ֥ם הֵם PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 25 nsubj _ Gloss=they|Ref=2KI_12:16!16|MId=o120120160161|Strong=1992|Type=personal 25 עֹשִֽׂים עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur 3 advcl _ Gloss=[were].working|Ref=2KI_12:16!17|MId=o120120160171|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:120120160161;|Type=participle_active|SpaceAfter=No 26 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 25 punct _ Ref=2KI_12:16!17 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: narrator - speech: narration - negation: yes | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | **not** יְחַשְּׁבוּ *they settled accounts* | yiqtol · piel | | אֲנָשִׁים *men* | | | | יִתְּנוּ *they put* | yiqtol · qal | | כֶּסֶף *money* | | | | תֵת *give* | infinitive construct · qal | אֲנָשִׁים *men* | | | | | עֹשֵׂי *the doers* | participle active · qal | | מְּלָאכָה *the work* | | | | עֹשִֽׂים *\[were\] working* | participle active · qal | הֵם *they* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
