Esther 1:17 אֶסְתֵּר

Who acts: king, Vashti · What happens: come, make, say, command, bring in, not come · To what, where: husbands, eyes, deed, Vashti · Speech: someone speaks in this verse

This is Esther 1:17 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 — king, Vashti — and what happens in the verse to husbands, eyes, deed, Vashti, 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 10 chapters of Esther on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

כִּֽי־יֵצֵ֤א דְבַר־הַמַּלְכָּה֙ עַל־כָּל־הַנָּשִׁ֔ים לְהַבְז֥וֹת בַּעְלֵיהֶ֖ן בְּעֵינֵיהֶ֑ן בְּאָמְרָ֗ם הַמֶּ֣לֶךְ אֲחַשְׁוֵר֡וֹשׁ אָמַ֞ר לְהָבִ֨יא אֶת־וַשְׁתִּ֧י הַמַּלְכָּ֛ה לְפָנָ֖יו וְלֹא־בָֽאָה׃

For this deed of the queen will come abroad unto all women, to make their husbands contemptible in their eyes, when it will be said: The king Ahasuerus commanded Vashti the queen to be brought in before him, but she came not.

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.

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

אֲרוּם יִפּוֹק פִּתְגָם גְזֵרַת מַלְכְּתָא עַל כָּל נְשַׁיָא לְאִתְלַגְלָגָא מָרֵיהוֹן קֳדָמֵיהוֹן בְּמַלָלוּתְהוֹן חֲדָא עִם חֲבֶרְתָּא בְּרַם בְּקוּשְׁטָא מַלְכָּא אֲחַשְׁוֵרוֹשׁ אֲמַר לְאַיְתָאָה יַת וַשְׁתִּי מַלְכְּתָא קֳדָמוֹי וְלָא עֲלַת:

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.
