Ecclesiastes 2:15 קֹהֶלֶת

Who acts: I, it, this · What happens: say, happen, be · To what, where: heart, me, vanity · Speech: someone speaks in this verse

This is Ecclesiastes 2:15 from Mova's open Bible corpus, the Tanakh in three languages (Ketuvim — the Writings). 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, it, this — and what happens in the verse to heart, me, vanity, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the Aramaic of the Targum 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 12 chapters of Ecclesiastes on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

וְאָמַ֨רְתִּֽי אֲנִ֜י בְּלִבִּ֗י כְּמִקְרֵ֤ה הַכְּסִיל֙ גַּם־אֲנִ֣י יִקְרֵ֔נִי וְלָ֧מָּה חָכַ֛מְתִּי אֲנִ֖י אָ֣ז יוֹתֵ֑ר וְדִבַּ֣רְתִּי בְלִבִּ֔י שֶׁגַּם־זֶ֖ה הָֽבֶל׃

Then said I in my heart: 'As it happeneth to the fool, so will it happen even to me; and why was I then more wise?' Then I said in my heart, that this also is vanity.

The 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.

Pragmatics

form

statement

act

assert

voice

character

speech

a frame and its quote

negation

no

the frame alone

decl · assert · none

MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant. A0 is the one who acts, A1 what the act is done to or is about, A2 a further participant; AA, with a causative verb, the one who makes it happen.

The Targum

וַאֲמָרִית אֲנָא בִּלְבָבִי כְּאִרְעוּן שָׁאוּל בַּר קִישׁ מַלְכָּא דִּסָט בְּסַטוּתֵיה וְלָא נְטַר תַּפְקִידְתָּא דְּאִתְפְּקַּד עַל עֲמָלֵק וְאִתְנְטָלַת מִנֵּיהּ מַלְכוּתָא אַף אֲנָא יְעַרְעִנַּנִי וְלָמָא דֵין חַכִּימִית אֲנָא בְּכֵין יַתִּיר מִנֵּיהּ וּמַלֵּילִית אֲנָא בְּלִבִּי דְּאַף דֵּין הַבָלוּ וְלֵית אֱלָהֵין גְּזֵירַת מֵימְרָא דַּיָי:

The Aramaic translation read beside the Hebrew. Text only: Mova has no Aramaic parser yet.

English, JPS 1917

Each sentence on its own page, with its tree and pragmatics. A sentence that runs on into the next verse is listed under the verse it begins in.

1. Then said I in my heart: 'As it happeneth to the fool, so will it happen even to me; and why was I then more wise?' Then I said in my heart, that this also is vanity.
