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, I, raiment — and what happens in the verse to letter, ten talents, 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. וַיֹּ֤אמֶר מֶֽלֶךְ־אֲרָם֙ לֶךְ־בֹּ֔א וְאֶשְׁלְחָ֥ה סֵ֖פֶר אֶל־מֶ֣לֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל וַיֵּלֶךְ֩ וַיִּקַּ֨ח בְּיָד֜וֹ עֶ֣שֶׂר כִּכְּרֵי־כֶ֗סֶף וְשֵׁ֤שֶׁת אֲלָפִים֙ זָהָ֔ב וְעֶ֖שֶׂר חֲלִיפ֥וֹת בְּגָדִֽים׃ [And the king of Aram said: 'Go now, and I will send a letter unto the king of Israel.'

Under each word its part of speech and MACULA's English gloss. ```conllu rtl gloss # sent_id = wlc:2KI:118 # text = וַיֹּ֤אמֶר מֶֽלֶךְ־אֲרָם֙ לֶךְ־בֹּ֔א וְאֶשְׁלְחָ֥ה סֵ֖פֶר אֶל־מֶ֣לֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל וַיֵּלֶךְ֩ וַיִּקַּ֨ח בְּיָד֜וֹ עֶ֣שֶׂר כִּכְּרֵי־כֶ֗סֶף וְשֵׁ֤שֶׁת אֲלָפִים֙ זָהָ֔ב וְעֶ֖שֶׂר חֲלִיפ֥וֹת בְּגָדִֽים׃ # verse = 2KI.5.5 1-2 וַיֹּ֤אמֶר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2KI_5:5!1|MId=o120050050011|Strong=2050b 2 יֹּ֤אמֶר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.said|Ref=2KI_5:5!1|MId=o120050050012|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:120050050021;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 מֶֽלֶךְ־ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 nsubj _ Gloss=the.king|Ref=2KI_5:5!2|MId=o120050050021|Strong=4428|SpaceAfter=No 4 אֲרָם֙ אֲרָם PROPN _ _ 3 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Aram|Ref=2KI_5:5!3|MId=o120050050031|Strong=0758 5 לֶךְ־ הלך VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 2 ccomp _ Gloss=come|Ref=2KI_5:5!4|MId=o120050050041|Strong=1980|Frame=A0:120050020121;|Type=imperative|SpaceAfter=No 6 בֹּ֔א בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 5 parataxis _ Gloss=go|Ref=2KI_5:5!5|MId=o120050050051|Strong=0935|Frame=A0:120050020121;|Type=imperative 7-8 וְאֶשְׁלְחָ֥ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 8 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2KI_5:5!6|MId=o120050050061|Strong=2050b 8 אֶשְׁלְחָ֥ה שָׁלַח VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 5 conj _ Gloss=I.will.send|Ref=2KI_5:5!6|MId=o120050050062|Strong=7971|Frame=A0:120050050021;A1:120050050071;|Type=cohortative 9 סֵ֖פֶר סֵפֶר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 obj _ Gloss=a.letter|Ref=2KI_5:5!7|MId=o120050050071|Strong=5612 10 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 11 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=2KI_5:5!8|MId=o120050050081|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 11 מֶ֣לֶךְ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 obl _ Gloss=the.king|Ref=2KI_5:5!9|MId=o120050050091|Strong=4428 12 יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל יִשְׂרָאֵל PROPN _ _ 11 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Israel|Ref=2KI_5:5!10|MId=o120050050101|Strong=3478 13-14 וַיֵּלֶךְ֩ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 14 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2KI_5:5!11|MId=o120050050111|Strong=2050b 14 יֵּלֶךְ֩ הלך VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.went|Ref=2KI_5:5!11|MId=o120050050112|Strong=1980|Frame=A0:120050020121;|Type=wayyiqtol 15-16 וַיִּקַּ֨ח _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 16 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2KI_5:5!12|MId=o120050050121|Strong=2050b 16 יִּקַּ֨ח לָקַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.took|Ref=2KI_5:5!12|MId=o120050050122|Strong=3947|Frame=A0:120050020121;A1:120050050151;120050050191;120050050211;|Type=wayyiqtol 17-19 בְּיָד֜וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=2KI_5:5!13|MId=o120050050131|Strong=0871a 18 יָד יָד NOUN _ Number=Sing 16 obl _ Gloss=hand|Ref=2KI_5:5!13|MId=o120050050132|Strong=3027 19 ֜וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 18 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=2KI_5:5!13|MId=o120050050133|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 20 עֶ֣שֶׂר עֶשֶׂר NUM _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 21 nummod _ Gloss=ten|Ref=2KI_5:5!14|MId=o120050050141|Strong=6235|Type=cardinal_number 21 כִּכְּרֵי־ כִּכָּר NOUN _ Number=Plur 16 obj _ Gloss=talents|Ref=2KI_5:5!15|MId=o120050050151|Strong=3603|SpaceAfter=No 22 כֶ֗סֶף כֶּסֶף NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 21 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.silver|Ref=2KI_5:5!16|MId=o120050050161|Strong=3701 23-24 וְשֵׁ֤שֶׁת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 26 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2KI_5:5!17|MId=o120050050171|Strong=2050b 24 שֵׁ֤שֶׁת שֵׁשׁ NUM _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 26 nummod _ Gloss=six|Ref=2KI_5:5!17|MId=o120050050172|Strong=8337|Type=cardinal_number 25 אֲלָפִים֙ אֶלֶף NUM _ Number=Plur 24 flat _ Gloss=thousand(s)|Ref=2KI_5:5!18|MId=o120050050181|Strong=0505|Type=cardinal_number 26 זָהָ֔ב זָהָב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 21 conj _ Gloss=gold|Ref=2KI_5:5!19|MId=o120050050191|Strong=2091 27-28 וְעֶ֖שֶׂר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 29 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2KI_5:5!20|MId=o120050050201|Strong=2050b 28 עֶ֖שֶׂר עֶשֶׂר NUM _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 29 nummod _ Gloss=ten|Ref=2KI_5:5!20|MId=o120050050202|Strong=6235|Type=cardinal_number 29 חֲלִיפ֥וֹת חֲלִיפָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 21 conj _ Gloss=changes|Ref=2KI_5:5!21|MId=o120050050211|Strong=2487 30 בְּגָדִֽים בֶּגֶד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 29 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.garments|Ref=2KI_5:5!22|MId=o120050050221|Strong=0899|SpaceAfter=No 31 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 30 punct _ Ref=2KI_5:5!22 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
