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 — king, you, ye, LORD, thou — and what happens in the verse to you, LORD, words, 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. וְאֶל־מֶ֣לֶךְ יְהוּדָ֗ה הַשֹּׁלֵ֤חַ אֶתְכֶם֙ לִדְרֹ֣שׁ אֶת־יְהוָ֔ה כֹּ֥ה תֹאמְר֖וּ אֵלָ֑יו כֹּֽה־אָמַ֤ר יְהוָה֙ אֱלֹהֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל הַדְּבָרִ֖ים אֲשֶׁ֥ר שָׁמָֽעְתָּ׃ [But unto the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of the LORD, thus shall ye say to him: Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel: As touching the words which thou hast heard,](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/2KI.695/) ## 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:629 # text = וְאֶל־מֶ֣לֶךְ יְהוּדָ֗ה הַשֹּׁלֵ֤חַ אֶתְכֶם֙ לִדְרֹ֣שׁ אֶת־יְהוָ֔ה כֹּ֥ה תֹאמְר֖וּ אֵלָ֑יו כֹּֽה־אָמַ֤ר יְהוָה֙ אֱלֹהֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל הַדְּבָרִ֖ים אֲשֶׁ֥ר שָׁמָֽעְתָּ׃ # verse = 2KI.22.18 1-2 וְאֶל־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 14 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2KI_22:18!1|MId=o120220180011|Strong=2050b 2 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 3 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=2KI_22:18!1|MId=o120220180012|Strong=0413 3 מֶ֣לֶךְ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 14 dislocated _ Gloss=the.king|Ref=2KI_22:18!2|MId=o120220180021|Strong=4428 4 יְהוּדָ֗ה יְהוּדָה PROPN _ _ 3 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Judah|Ref=2KI_22:18!3|MId=o120220180031|Strong=3063 5-6 הַשֹּׁלֵ֤חַ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 הַ הַ SCONJ _ _ 6 mark _ Gloss=[who]|Ref=2KI_22:18!4|MId=o120220180041|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 6 שֹּׁלֵ֤חַ שָׁלַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 3 appos _ Gloss=sent|Ref=2KI_22:18!4|MId=o120220180042|Strong=7971|Frame=A0:120220180021;A1:120220180052;|Type=participle_active 7-8 אֶתְכֶם֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 אֶת אֵת ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=|Ref=2KI_22:18!5|MId=o120220180051|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 8 ְכֶם֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 6 obj _ Gloss=you|Ref=2KI_22:18!5|MId=o120220180052|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 9-10 לִדְרֹ֣שׁ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=2KI_22:18!6|MId=o120220180061|Strong=3807a 10 דְרֹ֣שׁ דָּרַשׁ VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 6 advcl _ Gloss=consult|Ref=2KI_22:18!6|MId=o120220180062|Strong=1875|Frame=A0:120220140021;120220140042;120220140052;120220140062;120220140072;A1:120220180081;|Type=infinitive_construct 11 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=2KI_22:18!7|MId=o120220180071|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 12 יְהוָ֔ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 10 obj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=2KI_22:18!8|MId=o120220180081|Strong=3068 13 כֹּ֥ה כֹּה ADV _ _ 14 advmod _ Gloss=thus|Ref=2KI_22:18!9|MId=o120220180091|Strong=3541 14 תֹאמְר֖וּ אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=you.will.say|Ref=2KI_22:18!10|MId=o120220180101|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:120220140021;120220140042;120220140052;120220140062;120220140072;|Type=yiqtol 15-16 אֵלָ֑יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 אֵלָ֑י אֶל ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=2KI_22:18!11|MId=o120220180111|Strong=0413 16 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 14 obl _ Gloss=him|Ref=2KI_22:18!11|MId=o120220180112|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 17 כֹּֽה־ כֹּה ADV _ _ 18 advmod _ Gloss=thus|Ref=2KI_22:18!12|MId=o120220180121|Strong=3541|SpaceAfter=No 18 אָמַ֤ר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 14 ccomp _ Gloss=he.says|Ref=2KI_22:18!13|MId=o120220180131|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:120220180141;|Type=qatal 19 יְהוָה֙ יהוה PROPN _ _ 18 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=2KI_22:18!14|MId=o120220180141|Strong=3068 20 אֱלֹהֵ֣י אֱלֹהִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 19 appos _ Gloss=the.God|Ref=2KI_22:18!15|MId=o120220180151|Strong=0430 21 יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל יִשְׂרָאֵל PROPN _ _ 20 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Israel|Ref=2KI_22:18!16|MId=o120220180161|Strong=3478 22-23 הַדְּבָרִ֖ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 23 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2KI_22:18!17|MId=o120220180171|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 23 דְּבָרִ֖ים דָּבָר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 18 ccomp _ Gloss=words|Ref=2KI_22:18!17|MId=o120220180172|Strong=1697 24 אֲשֶׁ֥ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 25 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=2KI_22:18!18|MId=o120220180181|Strong=0834|Type=relative 25 שָׁמָֽעְתָּ שָׁמַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 23 acl:relcl _ Gloss=you.have.heard|Ref=2KI_22:18!19|MId=o120220180191|Strong=8085|Frame=A0:120220180021;A1:120220180172;|Type=qatal|SpaceAfter=No 26 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 25 punct _ Ref=2KI_22:18!19 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: no - the frame alone: decl · assert · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | שֹּׁלֵחַ *sent* | participle active · qal | מֶלֶךְ *the king* | ְכֶם *you* | | | | דְרֹשׁ *consult* | infinitive construct · qal | | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | | | תֹאמְרוּ *you will say* | yiqtol · qal | | | | | | אָמַר *he says* | qatal · qal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | | | | שָׁמָֽעְתָּ *you have heard* | qatal · qal | מֶלֶךְ *the king* | דְּבָרִים *words* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
