Esther 2:3 אֶסְתֵּר

Who acts: you, king, officers, ointments · What happens: let, appoint, gather, give · To what, where: king, officers, provinces, fair young virgins, ointments, virgins

This is Esther 2:3 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 — you, king, officers, ointments — and what happens in the verse to king, officers, provinces, fair young virgins, ointments, virgins, 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.

וְיַפְקֵ֨ד הַמֶּ֣לֶךְ פְּקִידִים֮ בְּכָל־מְדִינ֣וֹת מַלְכוּתוֹ֒ וְיִקְבְּצ֣וּ אֶת־כָּל־נַעֲרָֽה־בְ֠תוּלָה טוֹבַ֨ת מַרְאֶ֜ה אֶל־שׁוּשַׁ֤ן הַבִּירָה֙ אֶל־בֵּ֣ית הַנָּשִׁ֔ים אֶל־יַ֥ד הֵגֶ֛א סְרִ֥יס הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ שֹׁמֵ֣ר הַנָּשִׁ֑ים וְנָת֖וֹן תַּמְרוּקֵיהֶֽן׃

and let the king appoint officers in all the provinces of his kingdom, that they may gather together all the fair young virgins unto Shushan the castle, to the house of the women, unto the custody of Hegai the king's chamberlain, keeper of the women; and let their ointments be given them;

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

וִימַנֵי מַלְכָּא אַפִיטְרוֹפִּין בְּכָל פַּלְכֵי מַלְכוּתֵיהּ וְיִכְנְשׁוּן יַת כָּל עוּלֵימְתָּא בְתוּלְתָּא שַׁפִּירַת חֵזוּ לְשׁוּשַׁן בִּירַנְתָּא לְבֵית נְשַׁיָא דִי תַמָן דִימוּסָן וּבַנָאִין דִי תַמָן מִתְמַנֵי הֵגֶא רַב סָרִיס דְמַלְכָּא נָטֵר נְשַׁיָא וְיִתְגְזַר לְמֶהֱוֵי יְהֵב סַמְתַּר מִשְׁחֵהוֹן:

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

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.
