Esther 4:14 אֶסְתֵּר

Who acts: thou, relief, thy · What happens: hold, arise, perish, know, not come, pacify · To what, where: peace, place, royal estate · Speech: someone speaks in this verse

This is Esther 4:14 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 — thou, relief, thy — and what happens in the verse to peace, place, royal estate, 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 אִם־הַחֲרֵ֣שׁ תַּחֲרִישִׁי֮ בָּעֵ֣ת הַזֹּאת֒ רֶ֣וַח וְהַצָּלָ֞ה יַעֲמ֤וֹד לַיְּהוּדִים֙ מִמָּק֣וֹם אַחֵ֔ר וְאַ֥תְּ וּבֵית־אָבִ֖יךְ תֹּאבֵ֑דוּ וּמִ֣י יוֹדֵ֔עַ אִם־לְעֵ֣ת כָּזֹ֔את הִגַּ֖עַתְּ לַמַּלְכֽוּת׃

For if thou altogether holdest thy peace at this time, then will relief and deliverance arise to the Jews from another place, but thou and thy father's house will perish; and who knoweth whether thou art not come to royal estate for such a time as this?'

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

no

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 אִם מִשְׁתַּק שְׁתוֹקִי בְעִידָנָא הֲדָא וְלָא תַפְגִיעִי עַל יְהוּדָאֵי רְוָחָא וְשֵׁזְבוּתָא יְקוּם לִיהוּדָאֵי מִן אֲתַר אוֹחֲרָן בְּגִין זְכוּת אֲבָהַת עַלְמָא וִישֵׁזִיב יַתְהוֹן מָרֵי עַלְמָא מִן יַד בַּעֲלֵי דְבָבֵיהוֹן וְאַנְתְּ וּגְנִיסַת בֵּית אַבְהָתָךְ תּוֹבְדִין עַל הַהִיא חוֹבָתָא וּמָן הוּא חַכִּימָא דִי יִנְדַע אִין לְשַׁתָּא דְאַתְיָא בְּעִידָנָא הֲדָא אַתְּ מַטְיָא לְמֶחְסַן מַלְכוּתָא:

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. For if thou altogether holdest thy peace at this time, then will relief and deliverance arise to the Jews from another place, but thou and thy father's house will perish; and who knoweth whether thou art not come to royal estate for such a time as this?'
