Esther 10:3 אֶסְתֵּר

Who acts: Mordecai · What happens: be, accept, seek, speak · To what, where: good, peace · Speech: someone speaks in this verse

This is Esther 10:3 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 — Mordecai — and what happens in the verse to good, peace, 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.

כִּ֣י ׀ מָרְדֳּכַ֣י הַיְּהוּדִ֗י מִשְׁנֶה֙ לַמֶּ֣לֶךְ אֲחַשְׁוֵר֔וֹשׁ וְגָדוֹל֙ לַיְּהוּדִ֔ים וְרָצ֖וּי לְרֹ֣ב אֶחָ֑יו דֹּרֵ֥שׁ טוֹב֙ לְעַמּ֔וֹ וְדֹבֵ֥ר שָׁל֖וֹם לְכָל־זַרְעֽוֹ׃

For Mordecai the Jew was next unto king Ahasuerus, and great among the Jews, and accepted of the multitude of his brethren; seeking the good of his people and speaking peace to all his seed.

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

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

מְטוּל מָרְדְכַי יְהוּדָאָה פַּתְשֶׁגֶר דְמַלְכָּא אֲחַשְׁוֵרוֹשׁ גִזְבָּרָא וְסָבָא דִיהוּדָאֵי רַב עַל כָּל עַמְמַיָא וּמִסוֹף עַלְמָא וְעַד סוֹפֵיהּ אִשְׁתְּמַע לֵיהּ שָׁמְעֵיהּ וְכָל מַלְכַיָא דְחִילוּ מִקַמֵיהּ וְכַד מַדְכְּרִין לֵיהּ מִזְדַעְזְעִין מִנֵיהּ הוּא מָרְדְכַי דָמֵי לְכוֹכָב נוֹגְהָא דְמַזְהַר בֵּינֵי כּוֹכְבַיָא וְדָמֵי לִשְׁפַרְפְּרָא דִי נָפֵק בְּעִדָן צַפְרָא וְהוּא רַבְּהוֹן דִיהוּדָאֵי וְרָעֵי בְּסַגִיאוּתְהוֹן דַאֲחוֹי וְתָבַע טַבְתָּא לְעַמֵיהּ וּמְמַלֵל שְׁלָמָא לְכָל זַרְעִיתֵיהּ:

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