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 — Israel, we, one small stone — and what happens in the verse to Israel, city, ropes, valley, one small stone, 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. וְאִם־אֶל־עִיר֙ יֵֽאָסֵ֔ף וְהִשִּׂ֧יאוּ כָֽל־יִשְׂרָאֵ֛ל אֶל־הָעִ֥יר הַהִ֖יא חֲבָלִ֑ים וְסָחַ֤בְנוּ אֹתוֹ֙ עַד־הַנַּ֔חַל עַ֛ד אֲשֶֽׁר־לֹא־נִמְצָ֥א שָׁ֖ם גַּם־צְרֽוֹר׃פ [Moreover, if he withdraw himself into a city, then shall all Israel bring up ropes to that city, and we will draw it into the valley until there be not one small stone found there.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/2SA.493/) ## 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:2SA:439 # text = וְאִם־אֶל־עִיר֙ יֵֽאָסֵ֔ף וְהִשִּׂ֧יאוּ כָֽל־יִשְׂרָאֵ֛ל אֶל־הָעִ֥יר הַהִ֖יא חֲבָלִ֑ים וְסָחַ֤בְנוּ אֹתוֹ֙ עַד־הַנַּ֔חַל עַ֛ד אֲשֶֽׁר־לֹא־נִמְצָ֥א שָׁ֖ם גַּם־צְרֽוֹר׃פ # verse = 2SA.17.13 1-2 וְאִם־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 7 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2SA_17:13!1|MId=o100170130011|Strong=2050b 2 אִם־ אִם SCONJ _ _ 5 mark _ Gloss=if|Ref=2SA_17:13!1|MId=o100170130012|Strong=0518 3 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=into|Ref=2SA_17:13!2|MId=o100170130021|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 4 עִיר֙ עִיר NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 5 obl _ Gloss=a.city|Ref=2SA_17:13!3|MId=o100170130031|Strong=5892 5 יֵֽאָסֵ֔ף אָסַף VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 7 advcl _ Gloss=he.will.be.gathered|Ref=2SA_17:13!4|MId=o100170130041|Strong=0622|Frame=A1:100170100171;|Type=yiqtol 6-7 וְהִשִּׂ֧יאוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 7 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2SA_17:13!5|MId=o100170130051|Strong=2050b 7 הִשִּׂ֧יאוּ נָשָׂא VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.will.cause.to.bring|Ref=2SA_17:13!5|MId=o100170130052|Strong=5375|Frame=AA:100170130071;A0:100170130111;|Type=weqatal 8 כָֽל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 7 nsubj _ Gloss=all|Ref=2SA_17:13!6|MId=o100170130061|Strong=3605|SpaceAfter=No 9 יִשְׂרָאֵ֛ל יִשְׂרָאֵל PROPN _ _ 8 compound:smixut _ Gloss=Israel|Ref=2SA_17:13!7|MId=o100170130071|Strong=3478 10 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=2SA_17:13!8|MId=o100170130081|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 11-12 הָעִ֥יר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 12 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2SA_17:13!9|MId=o100170130091|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 12 עִ֥יר עִיר NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 7 obl _ Gloss=city|Ref=2SA_17:13!9|MId=o100170130092|Strong=5892 13-14 הַהִ֖יא _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 14 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=2SA_17:13!10|MId=o100170130101|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 14 הִ֖יא הִיא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 12 det _ Gloss=that|Ref=2SA_17:13!10|MId=o100170130102|Strong=1931a|Type=personal 15 חֲבָלִ֑ים חֶבֶל NOUN _ Number=Plur 7 obj _ Gloss=ropes|Ref=2SA_17:13!11|MId=o100170130111|Strong=2256 16-17 וְסָחַ֤בְנוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 17 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2SA_17:13!12|MId=o100170130121|Strong=2050b 17 סָחַ֤בְנוּ סָחַב VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=1 7 conj _ Gloss=we.will.drag|Ref=2SA_17:13!12|MId=o100170130122|Strong=5498|Frame=A0:100170070041;100170080021;100170130071;A1:100170130132;|Type=weqatal 18-19 אֹתוֹ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 אֹת אֵת ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=|Ref=2SA_17:13!13|MId=o100170130131|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 19 וֹ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 17 obj _ Gloss=him|Ref=2SA_17:13!13|MId=o100170130132|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 20 עַד־ עַד ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=2SA_17:13!14|MId=o100170130141|Strong=5704|SpaceAfter=No 21-22 הַנַּ֔חַל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 22 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2SA_17:13!15|MId=o100170130151|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 22 נַּ֔חַל נַחַל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 17 obl _ Gloss=wadi|Ref=2SA_17:13!15|MId=o100170130152|Strong=5158 23 עַ֛ד עַד ADP _ _ 7 parataxis _ Gloss=until|Ref=2SA_17:13!16|MId=o100170130161|Strong=5704 24 אֲשֶֽׁר־ אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 26 mark _ Gloss=that|Ref=2SA_17:13!17|MId=o100170130171|Strong=0834|Type=relative|SpaceAfter=No 25 לֹא־ לֹא ADV _ _ 26 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=2SA_17:13!18|MId=o100170130181|Strong=3808|Type=negative|SpaceAfter=No 26 נִמְצָ֥א מָצָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 23 parataxis _ Gloss=it.has.been.found|Ref=2SA_17:13!19|MId=o100170130191|Strong=4672|Frame=A1:100170130221;|Type=qatal 27 שָׁ֖ם שָׁם ADV _ _ 26 advmod _ Gloss=there|Ref=2SA_17:13!20|MId=o100170130201|Strong=8033 28 גַּם־ גַּם ADV _ _ 29 advmod _ Gloss=also|Ref=2SA_17:13!21|MId=o100170130211|Strong=1571|Type=affirmation|SpaceAfter=No 29 צְרֽוֹר צְרוֹר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 26 nsubj _ Gloss=a.pebble|Ref=2SA_17:13!22|MId=o100170130221|Strong=6872a|SpaceAfter=No 30 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 29 punct _ Ref=2SA_17:13!22|SpaceAfter=No 31 פ פ PUNCT _ _ 29 punct _ Ref=2SA_17:13!22 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: yes | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יֵֽאָסֵף *he will be gathered* | yiqtol · niphal | | | | | | הִשִּׂיאוּ *they will cause to bring* | weqatal · hiphil | חֲבָלִים *ropes* | | | יִשְׂרָאֵל *Israel* | | סָחַבְנוּ *we will drag* | weqatal · qal | יִשְׂרָאֵל *Israel* | וֹ *him* | | | | **not** נִמְצָא *it has been found* | qatal · niphal | | צְרֽוֹר *a pebble* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
