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 — thou, I, seed — and what happens in the verse to days, seed, body, kingdom, 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. כִּ֣י ׀ יִמְלְא֣וּ יָמֶ֗יךָ וְשָֽׁכַבְתָּ֙ אֶת־אֲבֹתֶ֔יךָ וַהֲקִימֹתִ֤י אֶֽת־זַרְעֲךָ֙ אַחֲרֶ֔יךָ אֲשֶׁ֥ר יֵצֵ֖א מִמֵּעֶ֑יךָ וַהֲכִינֹתִ֖י אֶת־מַמְלַכְתּֽוֹ׃ [When thy days are fulfilled, and thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, I will set up thy seed after thee, that shall proceed out of thy body, and I will establish his kingdom.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/2SA.190/) ## 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:169 # text = כִּ֣י ׀ יִמְלְא֣וּ יָמֶ֗יךָ וְשָֽׁכַבְתָּ֙ אֶת־אֲבֹתֶ֔יךָ וַהֲקִימֹתִ֤י אֶֽת־זַרְעֲךָ֙ אַחֲרֶ֔יךָ אֲשֶׁ֥ר יֵצֵ֖א מִמֵּעֶ֑יךָ וַהֲכִינֹתִ֖י אֶת־מַמְלַכְתּֽוֹ׃ # verse = 2SA.7.12 1 כִּ֣י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 3 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=2SA_7:12!1|MId=o100070120011|Strong=3588 2 ׀ ׀ PUNCT _ _ 1 punct _ Ref=2SA_7:12!1 3 יִמְלְא֣וּ מָלֵא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.will.be.completed|Ref=2SA_7:12!2|MId=o100070120021|Strong=4390|Frame=A0:100070120031;|Type=yiqtol 4-5 יָמֶ֗יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 יָמֶ֗י יוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 3 nsubj _ Gloss=days|Ref=2SA_7:12!3|MId=o100070120031|Strong=3117 5 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 4 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=2SA_7:12!3|MId=o100070120032|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 6-7 וְשָֽׁכַבְתָּ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 7 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2SA_7:12!4|MId=o100070120041|Strong=2050b 7 שָֽׁכַבְתָּ֙ שָׁכַב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 3 conj _ Gloss=you.will.lie.down|Ref=2SA_7:12!4|MId=o100070120042|Strong=7901|Frame=A0:100070080042;|Type=weqatal 8 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=2SA_7:12!5|MId=o100070120051|Strong=0854|SpaceAfter=No 9-10 אֲבֹתֶ֔יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 אֲבֹתֶ֔י אָב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 7 obl _ Gloss=ancestors|Ref=2SA_7:12!6|MId=o100070120061|Strong=0001 10 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 9 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=2SA_7:12!6|MId=o100070120062|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 11-12 וַהֲקִימֹתִ֤י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 12 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2SA_7:12!7|MId=o100070120071|Strong=2050b 12 הֲקִימֹתִ֤י קוּם VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=1 3 conj _ Gloss=I.will.raise.up|Ref=2SA_7:12!7|MId=o100070120072|Strong=6965|Frame=AA:100070110201;A0:100070120091;|Type=weqatal 13 אֶֽת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=2SA_7:12!8|MId=o100070120081|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 14-15 זַרְעֲךָ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 זַרְע זֶרַע NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 12 obj _ Gloss=offspring|Ref=2SA_7:12!9|MId=o100070120091|Strong=2233 15 ֲךָ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 14 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=2SA_7:12!9|MId=o100070120092|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 16-17 אַחֲרֶ֔יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 אַחֲרֶ֔י אַחַר ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=after|Ref=2SA_7:12!10|MId=o100070120101|Strong=0310 17 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 14 nmod _ Gloss=you|Ref=2SA_7:12!10|MId=o100070120102|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 18 אֲשֶׁ֥ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 19 mark _ Gloss=who|Ref=2SA_7:12!11|MId=o100070120111|Strong=0834|Type=relative 19 יֵצֵ֖א יָצָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 14 acl:relcl _ Gloss=he.will.come.out|Ref=2SA_7:12!12|MId=o100070120121|Strong=3318|Frame=A0:100070120091;|Type=yiqtol 20-22 מִמֵּעֶ֑יךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 21 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=2SA_7:12!13|MId=o100070120131|Strong=4480 21 מֵּעֶ֑י מֵעִים NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 19 obl _ Gloss=your.inward|Ref=2SA_7:12!13|MId=o100070120132|Strong=4578 22 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 21 nmod:poss _ Gloss=parts|Ref=2SA_7:12!13|MId=o100070120133|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 23-24 וַהֲכִינֹתִ֖י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 24 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=2SA_7:12!14|MId=o100070120141|Strong=2050b 24 הֲכִינֹתִ֖י כּוּן VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=1 3 conj _ Gloss=I.will.establish|Ref=2SA_7:12!14|MId=o100070120142|Strong=3559|Frame=AA:100070110201;A0:100070120161;|Type=weqatal 25 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 26 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=2SA_7:12!15|MId=o100070120151|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 26-27 מַמְלַכְתּֽוֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 26 מַמְלַכְתּ מַמְלֶכֶת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 24 obj _ Gloss=kingdom|Ref=2SA_7:12!16|MId=o100070120161|Strong=4467 27 ֽוֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 26 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=2SA_7:12!16|MId=o100070120162|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 28 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 27 punct _ Ref=2SA_7:12!16 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יִמְלְאוּ *they will be completed* | yiqtol · qal | יָמֶי *days* | | | | | שָֽׁכַבְתָּ *you will lie down* | weqatal · qal | | | | | | הֲקִימֹתִי *I will raise up* | weqatal · hiphil | זַרְע *offspring* | | | | | יֵצֵא *he will come out* | yiqtol · qal | זַרְע *offspring* | | | | | הֲכִינֹתִי *I will establish* | weqatal · hiphil | מַמְלַכְתּ *kingdom* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
