Ecclesiastes 3:22 קֹהֶלֶת

Who acts: I, nothing, man, that, other · What happens: perceive, be, rejoice, bring, see, work · To what, where: works, portion, other · Speech: someone speaks in this verse

This is Ecclesiastes 3:22 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, nothing, man, that, other — and what happens in the verse to works, portion, other, 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.

וְרָאִ֗יתִי כִּ֣י אֵ֥ין טוֹב֙ מֵאֲשֶׁ֨ר יִשְׂמַ֤ח הָאָדָם֙ בְּֽמַעֲשָׂ֔יו כִּי־ה֖וּא חֶלְק֑וֹ כִּ֣י מִ֤י יְבִיאֶ֙נּוּ֙ לִרְא֔וֹת בְּמֶ֖ה שֶׁיִּהְיֶ֥ה אַחֲרָֽיו׃

Wherefore I perceived that there is nothing better, than that a man should rejoice in his works; for that is his portion; for who shall bring him to see what shall be after him?

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

inside a quote begun earlier

negation

yes

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

וַחֲזֵית אֲרוּם לֵית טָב בְּעַלְמָא הָדֵין מִדְּיִחְדֵּי אֱנָשׁ בְּעוֹבָדוֹי טָבִין וְיֵיכוֹל וְיִשְׁתֵּי וְיוֹטִיב לִבֵּיהּ אֲרוּם הוּא חוּלָקֵיהּ טָב בְּעָלְמָא הָדֵין לְמִקְנֵי בֵּיהּ עַלְמָא דְּאָתֵי דְּלָא יֵימַר אֱנָשׁ בְּלִבֵּיהּ לְמָה דֵין אֲנָא מְבַזְבֵּיז מָמוֹנָא לְמֶעֱבַד צִדְקְתָא טָב לִי דְּאִשְׁבְּקִינֵּיהּ לִבְרִי בַּתְרַי אוֹ אֶתְזַן מִנֵּיהּ בְּעִדָּן סִיבְתִּי אֲרוּם מַן הוּא דְּיַעֲלִנֵּיהּ לְמֶחֱזֵי מַה דַּעֲתִיד לְמִהְוֵי בַתְרוֹי:

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. Wherefore I perceived that there is nothing better, than that a man should rejoice in his works; for that is his portion; for who shall bring him to see what shall be after him?
