Esther 2:12 אֶסְתֵּר

Who acts: turn · What happens: come, go in, do, accord, accomplish, wit · To what, where: king Ahasuerus, turn, maiden, days

This is Esther 2:12 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 — turn — and what happens in the verse to king Ahasuerus, turn, maiden, days, 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.

וּבְהַגִּ֡יעַ תֹּר֩ נַעֲרָ֨ה וְנַעֲרָ֜ה לָב֣וֹא ׀ אֶל־הַמֶּ֣לֶךְ אֲחַשְׁוֵר֗וֹשׁ מִקֵּץ֩ הֱי֨וֹת לָ֜הּ כְּדָ֤ת הַנָּשִׁים֙ שְׁנֵ֣ים עָשָׂ֣ר חֹ֔דֶשׁ כִּ֛י כֵּ֥ן יִמְלְא֖וּ יְמֵ֣י מְרוּקֵיהֶ֑ן שִׁשָּׁ֤ה חֳדָשִׁים֙ בְּשֶׁ֣מֶן הַמֹּ֔ר וְשִׁשָּׁ֤ה חֳדָשִׁים֙ בַּבְּשָׂמִ֔ים וּבְתַמְרוּקֵ֖י הַנָּשִֽׁים׃

Now when the turn of every maiden was come to go in to king Ahasuerus, after that it had been done to her according to the law for the women, twelve months — for so were the days of their anointing accomplished, to wit, six months with oil of myrrh, and six month with sweet odours, and with other ointments of the women —

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

וְכַד מָטָא סִדוּר עוּלֶמְתָּא וְעוּלֶמְתָּא לְמֵיעַל קֳדָם מַלְכָּא אֲחַשְׁוֵרוֹשׁ מִסוֹף דְיֶהֱוֵי לָהּ כְּהִלְכַת נְשַׁיָא דִמְתִינָן בְּתַפְנוּקֵיהוֹן תְּרֵי עֲשַׂר יַרְחֵי שַׁתָּא אֲרוּם כְּדֵין שַׁלְמִין יוֹמֵי סַמְתּוֹרֵיהוֹן שִׁתָּא יַרְחִין בְּטַכְסַת וְאַנְפְקִינוּן דְמַנְתַּר יַת סְעָרָא וּמְפַנֵק יַת בִּסְרָא וְשִׁתָּא יַרְחִין בְּבוּסְמַיָא וּבְסַמְתּוֹרֵי נְשַׁיָא:

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