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 — I, all, thou, people — and what happens in the verse to people, man, peace, 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. וְאָשִׁ֥יבָה כָל־הָעָ֖ם אֵלֶ֑יךָ כְּשׁ֣וּב הַכֹּ֔ל הָאִישׁ֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר אַתָּ֣ה מְבַקֵּ֔שׁ כָּל־הָעָ֖ם יִהְיֶ֥ה שָׁלֽוֹם׃ [and I will bring back all the people unto thee; when all shall have returned, save the man whom thou seekest, all the people will be in peace.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/2SA.483/) ## 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:429 # text = וְאָשִׁ֥יבָה כָל־הָעָ֖ם אֵלֶ֑יךָ כְּשׁ֣וּב הַכֹּ֔ל הָאִישׁ֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר אַתָּ֣ה מְבַקֵּ֔שׁ כָּל־הָעָ֖ם יִהְיֶ֥ה שָׁלֽוֹם׃ # verse = 2SA.17.3 1-2 וְאָשִׁ֥יבָה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2SA_17:3!1|MId=o100170030011|Strong=2050b 2 אָשִׁ֥יבָה שׁוּב VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=1 0 root _ Gloss=I.will.bring.back|Ref=2SA_17:3!1|MId=o100170030012|Strong=7725|Frame=AA:100170010021;A0:100170030032;|Type=cohortative 3 כָל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obj _ Gloss=all|Ref=2SA_17:3!2|MId=o100170030021|Strong=3605|SpaceAfter=No 4-5 הָעָ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 5 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2SA_17:3!3|MId=o100170030031|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 5 עָ֖ם עַם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 compound:smixut _ Gloss=people|Ref=2SA_17:3!3|MId=o100170030032|Strong=5971 6-7 אֵלֶ֑יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 אֵלֶ֑י אֶל ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=2SA_17:3!4|MId=o100170030041|Strong=0413 7 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 2 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=2SA_17:3!4|MId=o100170030042|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 8-9 כְּשׁ֣וּב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 כְּ כְּ ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=as|Ref=2SA_17:3!5|MId=o100170030051|Strong=3509a 9 שׁ֣וּב שׁוּב VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 2 parataxis _ Gloss=returns|Ref=2SA_17:3!5|MId=o100170030052|Strong=7725|Frame=A0:100170030062;|Type=infinitive_construct 10-11 הַכֹּ֔ל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 11 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=2SA_17:3!6|MId=o100170030061|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 11 כֹּ֔ל כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 nsubj _ Gloss=everything|Ref=2SA_17:3!6|MId=o100170030062|Strong=3605 12-13 הָאִישׁ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 13 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2SA_17:3!7|MId=o100170030071|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 13 אִישׁ֙ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 nsubj _ Gloss=man|Ref=2SA_17:3!7|MId=o100170030072|Strong=0376 14 אֲשֶׁ֣ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 16 mark _ Gloss=whom|Ref=2SA_17:3!8|MId=o100170030081|Strong=0834|Type=relative 15 אַתָּ֣ה אַתָּה PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 16 nsubj _ Gloss=you|Ref=2SA_17:3!9|MId=o100170030091|Strong=0859|Type=personal 16 מְבַקֵּ֔שׁ בָּקַשׁ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing 13 acl:relcl _ Gloss=[are].seeking|Ref=2SA_17:3!10|MId=o100170030101|Strong=1245|Frame=A0:100170030091;A1:100170030072;|Type=participle_active 17 כָּל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 21 nsubj _ Gloss=all|Ref=2SA_17:3!11|MId=o100170030111|Strong=3605|SpaceAfter=No 18-19 הָעָ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 19 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=2SA_17:3!12|MId=o100170030121|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 19 עָ֖ם עַם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 17 compound:smixut _ Gloss=people|Ref=2SA_17:3!12|MId=o100170030122|Strong=5971 20 יִהְיֶ֥ה הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 21 cop _ Gloss=it.will.be|Ref=2SA_17:3!13|MId=o100170030131|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:100170030122;|Type=yiqtol 21 שָׁלֽוֹם שָׁלוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 parataxis _ Gloss=peace|Ref=2SA_17:3!14|MId=o100170030141|Strong=7965|SpaceAfter=No 22 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 21 punct _ Ref=2SA_17:3!14 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: command - act: request - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | אָשִׁיבָה *I will bring back* | cohortative · hiphil | עָם *people* | | | | | שׁוּב *returns* | infinitive construct · qal | כֹּל *everything* | | | | | מְבַקֵּשׁ *\[are\] seeking* | participle active · piel | אַתָּה *you* | אִישׁ *man* | | | | יִהְיֶה *it will be* | yiqtol · qal | עָם *people* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
