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, I, thee, Uriah — and what happens in the verse to Uriah, thee, Jerusalem, 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 24 chapters of 2 Samuel on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וַיֹּ֨אמֶר דָּוִ֜ד אֶל־אוּרִיָּ֗ה שֵׁ֥ב בָּזֶ֛ה גַּם־הַיּ֖וֹם וּמָחָ֣ר אֲשַׁלְּחֶ֑ךָּ וַיֵּ֨שֶׁב אוּרִיָּ֧ה בִירוּשָׁלִַ֛ם בַּיּ֥וֹם הַה֖וּא וּמִֽמָּחֳרָֽת׃ [And David said to Uriah: 'Tarry here to-day also, and to-morrow I will let thee depart.'

Under each word its part of speech and MACULA's English gloss. ```conllu rtl gloss # sent_id = wlc:2SA:248 # text = וַיֹּ֨אמֶר דָּוִ֜ד אֶל־אוּרִיָּ֗ה שֵׁ֥ב בָּזֶ֛ה גַּם־הַיּ֖וֹם וּמָחָ֣ר אֲשַׁלְּחֶ֑ךָּ וַיֵּ֨שֶׁב אוּרִיָּ֧ה בִירוּשָׁלִַ֛ם בַּיּ֥וֹם הַה֖וּא וּמִֽמָּחֳרָֽת׃ # verse = 2SA.11.12 1-2 וַיֹּ֨אמֶר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2SA_11:12!1|MId=o100110120011|Strong=2050b 2 יֹּ֨אמֶר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.said|Ref=2SA_11:12!1|MId=o100110120012|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:100110120021;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 דָּוִ֜ד דָּוִד PROPN _ _ 2 nsubj _ Gloss=David|Ref=2SA_11:12!2|MId=o100110120021|Strong=1732 4 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=2SA_11:12!3|MId=o100110120031|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 5 אוּרִיָּ֗ה אוּרִיָּה PROPN _ _ 2 obl _ Gloss=Uriah|Ref=2SA_11:12!4|MId=o100110120041|Strong=0223 6 שֵׁ֥ב יָשַׁב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 2 ccomp _ Gloss=remain|Ref=2SA_11:12!5|MId=o100110120051|Strong=3427|Frame=A0:100110120041;|Type=imperative 7-8 בָּזֶ֛ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 בָּ בְּ ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=2SA_11:12!6|MId=o100110120061|Strong=0871a 8 זֶ֛ה זֶה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|PronType=Dem 6 obl _ Gloss=this.[place]|Ref=2SA_11:12!6|MId=o100110120062|Strong=2088|Type=demonstrative 9 גַּם־ גַּם ADV _ _ 11 advmod _ Gloss=also|Ref=2SA_11:12!7|MId=o100110120071|Strong=1571|Type=affirmation|SpaceAfter=No 10-11 הַיּ֖וֹם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 11 det _ Gloss=this|Ref=2SA_11:12!8|MId=o100110120081|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 11 יּ֖וֹם יוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 obl _ Gloss=day|Ref=2SA_11:12!8|MId=o100110120082|Strong=3117 12-13 וּמָחָ֣ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 14 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2SA_11:12!9|MId=o100110120091|Strong=2050b 13 מָחָ֣ר מָחָר ADV _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 14 advmod _ Gloss=tomorrow|Ref=2SA_11:12!9|MId=o100110120092|Strong=4279 14-15 אֲשַׁלְּחֶ֑ךָּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 אֲשַׁלְּח שָׁלַח VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=1 6 conj _ Gloss=I|Ref=2SA_11:12!10|MId=o100110120101|Strong=7971|Frame=A0:100110120021;A1:100110120102;|Type=yiqtol 15 ֶ֑ךָּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 14 obj _ Gloss=will.let.you.go|Ref=2SA_11:12!10|MId=o100110120102|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 16-17 וַיֵּ֨שֶׁב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 17 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2SA_11:12!11|MId=o100110120111|Strong=2050b 17 יֵּ֨שֶׁב יָשַׁב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.remained|Ref=2SA_11:12!11|MId=o100110120112|Strong=3427|Frame=A0:100110120121;|Type=wayyiqtol 18 אוּרִיָּ֧ה אוּרִיָּה PROPN _ _ 17 nsubj _ Gloss=Uriah|Ref=2SA_11:12!12|MId=o100110120121|Strong=0223 19-20 בִירוּשָׁלִַ֛ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 בִ בְּ ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=2SA_11:12!13|MId=o100110120131|Strong=0871a 20 ירוּשָׁלִַ֛ם יְרוּשָׁלִַ͏ם PROPN _ _ 17 obl _ Gloss=Jerusalem|Ref=2SA_11:12!13|MId=o100110120132|Strong=3389 21-23 בַּיּ֥וֹם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 23 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=2SA_11:12!14|MId=o100110120141|Strong=0871a 22 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 23 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2SA_11:12!14|MId=o100110120141ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 23 יּ֥וֹם יוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 17 obl _ Gloss=day|Ref=2SA_11:12!14|MId=o100110120142|Strong=3117 24-25 הַה֖וּא _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 25 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=2SA_11:12!15|MId=o100110120151|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 25 ה֖וּא הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 23 det _ Gloss=that|Ref=2SA_11:12!15|MId=o100110120152|Strong=1931|Type=personal 26-28 וּמִֽמָּחֳרָֽת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 28 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2SA_11:12!16|MId=o100110120161|Strong=2050b 27 מִֽ מִן ADP _ _ 28 case _ Gloss=from.[the]|Ref=2SA_11:12!16|MId=o100110120162|Strong=4480 28 מָּחֳרָֽת מׇחֳרָת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 23 conj _ Gloss=next.day|Ref=2SA_11:12!16|MId=o100110120163|Strong=4283 29 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 28 punct _ Ref=2SA_11:12!16 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: command - act: request - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: no - the frame alone: decl · narrate · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יֹּאמֶר *he said* | wayyiqtol · qal | דָּוִד *David* | | | | | שֵׁב *remain* | imperative · qal | אוּרִיָּה *Uriah* | | | | | אֲשַׁלְּח *I* | yiqtol · piel | דָּוִד *David* | ֶךָּ *will let you go* | | | | יֵּשֶׁב *he remained* | wayyiqtol · qal | אוּרִיָּה *Uriah* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
