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, woman, lord — and what happens in the verse to aught, thee, 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. וַיַּ֣עַן הַמֶּ֗לֶךְ וַיֹּ֙אמֶר֙ אֶל־הָ֣אִשָּׁ֔ה אַל־נָ֨א תְכַחֲדִ֤י מִמֶּ֙נִּי֙ דָּבָ֔ר אֲשֶׁ֥ר אָנֹכִ֖י שֹׁאֵ֣ל אֹתָ֑ךְ וַתֹּ֙אמֶר֙ הָֽאִשָּׁ֔ה יְדַבֶּר־נָ֖א אֲדֹנִ֥י הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃ [Then the king answered and said unto the woman: 'Hide not from me, I pray thee, aught that I shall ask thee.'

Under each word its part of speech and MACULA's English gloss. ```conllu rtl gloss # sent_id = wlc:2SA:351 # text = וַיַּ֣עַן הַמֶּ֗לֶךְ וַיֹּ֙אמֶר֙ אֶל־הָ֣אִשָּׁ֔ה אַל־נָ֨א תְכַחֲדִ֤י מִמֶּ֙נִּי֙ דָּבָ֔ר אֲשֶׁ֥ר אָנֹכִ֖י שֹׁאֵ֣ל אֹתָ֑ךְ וַתֹּ֙אמֶר֙ הָֽאִשָּׁ֔ה יְדַבֶּר־נָ֖א אֲדֹנִ֥י הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃ # verse = 2SA.14.18 1-2 וַיַּ֣עַן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2SA_14:18!1|MId=o100140180011|Strong=2050b 2 יַּ֣עַן עָנָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.answered|Ref=2SA_14:18!1|MId=o100140180012|Strong=6030|Frame=A0:100140180022;|Type=wayyiqtol 3-4 הַמֶּ֗לֶךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 4 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2SA_14:18!2|MId=o100140180021|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 4 מֶּ֗לֶךְ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 nsubj _ Gloss=king|Ref=2SA_14:18!2|MId=o100140180022|Strong=4428 5-6 וַיֹּ֙אמֶר֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 6 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2SA_14:18!3|MId=o100140180031|Strong=2050b 6 יֹּ֙אמֶר֙ אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.said|Ref=2SA_14:18!3|MId=o100140180032|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:100140180022;|Type=wayyiqtol 7 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=2SA_14:18!4|MId=o100140180041|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 8-9 הָ֣אִשָּׁ֔ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 הָ֣ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 9 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2SA_14:18!5|MId=o100140180051|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 9 אִשָּׁ֔ה אִשָּׁה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 6 obl _ Gloss=woman|Ref=2SA_14:18!5|MId=o100140180052|Strong=0802 10 אַל־ אַל ADV _ _ 12 advmod _ Gloss=do.not|Ref=2SA_14:18!6|MId=o100140180061|Strong=0408|Type=negative|SpaceAfter=No 11 נָ֨א נָא INTJ _ _ 12 discourse _ Gloss=please|Ref=2SA_14:18!7|MId=o100140180071|Strong=4994|Type=exhortation 12 תְכַחֲדִ֤י כָּחַד VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=2 6 ccomp _ Gloss=hide|Ref=2SA_14:18!8|MId=o100140180081|Strong=3582|Frame=A0:100140180052;A1:100140180101;|Type=jussive 13-14 מִמֶּ֙נִּי֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 מִמּ מִן ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=2SA_14:18!9|MId=o100140180091|Strong=4480 14 ֶ֙נִּי֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 12 obl _ Gloss=me|Ref=2SA_14:18!9|MId=o100140180092|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 15 דָּבָ֔ר דָּבָר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 12 obj _ Gloss=anything|Ref=2SA_14:18!10|MId=o100140180101|Strong=1697 16 אֲשֶׁ֥ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 18 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=2SA_14:18!11|MId=o100140180111|Strong=0834|Type=relative 17 אָנֹכִ֖י אָנֹכִי PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 18 nsubj _ Gloss=I|Ref=2SA_14:18!12|MId=o100140180121|Strong=0595|Type=personal 18 שֹׁאֵ֣ל שָׁאַל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 15 acl:relcl _ Gloss=[am].asking|Ref=2SA_14:18!13|MId=o100140180131|Strong=7592|Frame=A0:100140180121;A2:100140180142;A1:100140180101;|Type=participle_active 19-20 אֹתָ֑ךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 אֹת אֵת ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=|Ref=2SA_14:18!14|MId=o100140180141|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 20 ָ֑ךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 18 obj _ Gloss=you|Ref=2SA_14:18!14|MId=o100140180142|Strong=3509c|Type=pronominal 21-22 וַתֹּ֙אמֶר֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 22 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2SA_14:18!15|MId=o100140180151|Strong=2050b 22 תֹּ֙אמֶר֙ אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=she.said|Ref=2SA_14:18!15|MId=o100140180152|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:100140180162;|Type=wayyiqtol 23-24 הָֽאִשָּׁ֔ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 הָֽ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 24 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2SA_14:18!16|MId=o100140180161|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 24 אִשָּׁ֔ה אִשָּׁה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 22 nsubj _ Gloss=woman|Ref=2SA_14:18!16|MId=o100140180162|Strong=0802 25 יְדַבֶּר־ דָבַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=3 22 ccomp _ Gloss=let.him.speak|Ref=2SA_14:18!17|MId=o100140180171|Strong=1696|Frame=A0:100140180191;|Type=jussive|SpaceAfter=No 26 נָ֖א נָא INTJ _ _ 25 discourse _ Gloss=please|Ref=2SA_14:18!18|MId=o100140180181|Strong=4994|Type=exhortation 27-28 אֲדֹנִ֥י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 אֲדֹנ אָדוֹן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 25 nsubj _ Gloss=lord|Ref=2SA_14:18!19|MId=o100140180191|Strong=0113 28 ִ֥י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 27 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=2SA_14:18!19|MId=o100140180192|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 29-30 הַמֶּֽלֶךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 29 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 30 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2SA_14:18!20|MId=o100140180201|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 30 מֶּֽלֶךְ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 27 appos _ Gloss=king|Ref=2SA_14:18!20|MId=o100140180202|Strong=4428 31 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 30 punct _ Ref=2SA_14:18!20 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
